You don't need to manually turn off your AirPods or their charging case. The charging case automatically manages power.
Here's why and how it works:
-
Automatic Power Management: The AirPods case is designed to manage power efficiently. According to information from January 31, 2022, the case automatically goes to sleep or switches off when not in use.
-
No On/Off Switch: There's no physical on/off switch on the AirPods case.
-
Charging and Power States:
- Charging: When you place your AirPods inside the case, they automatically begin to charge if the case has power.
- Idle/Sleep: When the AirPods are fully charged or removed from the case, the case enters a low-power or sleep mode to conserve battery.
In summary, simply placing your AirPods in the case is all you need to do; the case handles the power management automatically. You don't need to do anything else to "turn off" the AirPods in their case.
