How to Stop AirPods From Pausing Music?

To stop your AirPods from automatically pausing music, disable "Automatic Ear Detection" in your Bluetooth settings.

Here's how to do it:

1. Open Settings: On your iPhone or iPad, open the Settings app.
2. Go to Bluetooth: Tap on "Bluetooth."
3. Find Your AirPods: Locate your AirPods in the list of connected devices.
4. Tap the "i" Icon: Tap the "i" (information) icon next to your AirPods.
5. Toggle Off Automatic Ear Detection: Find the "Automatic Ear Detection" option and slide the switch to the left to turn it off.

With Automatic Ear Detection disabled, your AirPods will no longer automatically pause the music when you remove them from your ears. Keep in mind that disabling this feature will also prevent your AirPods from automatically resuming playback when you reinsert them.
