In a bid to enhance user experience, connecting AirPods to Windows PCs and Android devices has been simplified. To initiate the pairing process, users should tap and hold the circular button located on the rear of the AirPod charging case until the internal light blinks white. This indicates that the AirPods are ready to connect. Next, users need to access their PC's Bluetooth settings. This can be done by clicking the Bluetooth icon in the system tray at the bottom right of the taskbar or by searching for "Bluetooth" in the taskbar and selecting "Bluetooth and other device settings." Once in the settings, users should click on "Add Bluetooth or other devices" and select the AirPods from the list of discoverable devices. For Android users, the process is similar. After opening the Bluetooth settings, users should ensure the AirPods are visible under "Available Devices." If the AirPods do not appear, restarting the Bluetooth pairing process is recommended. It is important to keep the AirPods in the case with the lid open during this step. However, users should note that certain Apple-specific features, such as Siri, will not be accessible when using AirPods with non-Apple devices.
