Customize Your AirPods Buttons

The AirPods Pro and the third-generation AirPods come with sensors in the stem that you can press to trigger an action. For instance, you can long-press them to change your Noise Controls, activate Siri, or end calls.

The best part is that you can customize them to make your experience a tad better. Here’s how:

1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
2. With your AirPods in your ears and connected to your iPhone, tap your AirPods’ name right below your Apple ID.
3. Scroll down, and under Press and Hold AirPods, tap on Left or Right. Then, change what you want that action to do.
4. Go back to the previous page, and under Call Controls, select how you want to Answer Call, Mute & Unmute, and End Call.

You can also customize the button on the AirPods Max in the same way.
