When it comes to using my AirPods Pro with my Android device, one of the key features I love utilizing is noise cancellation. So, let’s dive into how to turn on noise cancelling on AirPods Pro with an Android device.
Check the AirPods Pro Connection
First, I ensure that my AirPods Pro are connected to my Android device via Bluetooth. This is crucial as noise cancellation settings are often synced and controlled through the connection between the two devices.
Updating Firmware
Before diving into the noise cancellation settings, I always make sure that my AirPods Pro have the latest firmware installed. This can be done by connecting the AirPods Pro to an iOS device that has the latest version of the AirPods Pro firmware and then connecting them back to the Android device. This ensures that the AirPods Pro are ready to utilize all the features, including noise cancellation, to their fullest potential.
Enable Noise Cancellation
Once the AirPods Pro are connected and the firmware is up to date, it’s time to enable noise cancellation. Unfortunately, as of now, Apple has not officially released an app for Android that allows users to control the noise cancellation settings directly from their Android device. However, there are third-party apps available on the Google Play Store that can help with this. One such app is “AirBattery,” which not only provides the battery status of the AirPods Pro but also allows users to switch between noise cancellation and transparency mode.
Using AirBattery
After installing AirBattery, I open the app and ensure that it is connected to my AirPods Pro. Once connected, I can easily switch noise cancellation on or off with just a tap, directly from my Android device. It’s a convenient solution until Apple officially releases a dedicated app for controlling AirPods Pro settings on Android.
Conclusion
While it’s not as seamless as controlling the noise cancellation settings directly from an iOS device, using third-party apps like AirBattery allows Android users to make the most of their AirPods Pro, including enabling noise cancellation. Hopefully, Apple will consider developing an official app for Android users in the future, providing a more integrated experience. Until then, third-party apps do come to the rescue, making it possible to enjoy the fantastic noise cancellation feature of the AirPods Pro on an Android device.
