Show Do you have a pair of AirPods or AirPods Pro and you’re wondering what the lights mean? If you aren’t highly familiar with Apple’s hugely successful truly wireless headphones, you might not necessarily be aware of what the lights on the charging case indicate. But not to worry, we will explain what the AirPods lights mean, and why you may see white, amber, and green color lights, and sometimes they flash too. Both the AirPods and AirPods Pro come in a minimalistic carrying case that’s capable of charging the earbuds roughly four times, providing a combined battery life of up to 24 hours. The LED light on the AirPods case displays three different lights that help to indicate the status of the AirPods you’re using. In this article, we’ll be taking a look at all the possible indicators on AirPods and AirPods Pro when the LED on the case lights up in Amber, Green, or White colors.

That’s pretty much all you need to know regarding the LED indicators on your AirPods or AirPods Pro charging case. Although some of the AirPods and AirPods Pro users have a rough idea about the LED status lights that are displayed on the case, other people who’re just switching from a different pair of truly wireless earbuds will take a bit before getting used to all the indicators that we discussed here. That being said, it’d have been nice if Apple allowed users to check the battery life directly from the case. Regardless, if you have an iPhone in your pocket, it’s still fairly simple to check the battery percent of your AirPods via iPhone.

You’ll need to either tap on the case or take it off the pad for the LED to light up again. Don’t forget that if you’re having issues with AirPods, you can always reset AirPods and set them up again too.
