The Apple AirPods are truly, in our opinion, one of the most versatile and beautifully-designed Apple accessories we have the pleasure to use on a daily basis.
Following Apple’s famous dedication to beautifully-crafted and designed devices, the AirPods don’t have small lights at the back to show you how much battery is left and we’re glad it is so as it remains a pure design instead of just another “electronic device”!
Instead, to find out how much battery is left in your AirPods, simply put both AirPods back into their case, wake up your iPhone then open the AirPods’ case while holding it super close to your phone.
After a few seconds, your iPhone will display a notification coming from the bottom up showing the remaining battery of the case itself, along with each of the two individual AirPods (in case you use one at the time like we do).
This feature can let you know if you still have enough “juice” in the case to recharge your AirPods, if you need to recharge only one of them while you use the other one or if all of them need to be plugged in.
