Why Do My AirPods Hang Up When I Touch Them?
There are a few reasons why your AirPods might disconnect when you touch them. One possibility is that you have inadvertently enabled the “Hey Siri” feature. When this setting is enabled, AirPods will automatically connect to your iPhone or iPad when they are near. If you do not intend to use Siri, disable this feature in your device’s settings.
Another possibility is that the AirPods are not adequately charged. If the battery level is low, they might disconnect when you touch them. Keep your AirPods charged up so that this doesn’t happen.
Finally, if your AirPods are near another Bluetooth device, they might connect to that device instead of your iPhone or iPad. To fix this, keep your AirPods away from other Bluetooth devices when you’re not using them.
