out sound with noise cancelling. To use it, head
to the Settings app by following the steps in the
previous section.
- Once you’re in the menu for your AirPods, scroll
down to Ear Tip Fit Test and press it. - Press Continue in the next menu, which should
be titled ‘Test the Fit of Your Ear Tip’s’. - The actual test should then pop up. Press the
Play icon at the bottom (the right-facing arrow on
the blue button). - Your iPhone will play a track for about four
seconds. If you’re wearing the

‘Good Seal’ pop up under the
icons for your AirPods Pro once
it’s finished. If you’re not, you’ll
see a yellow warning that says
‘Adjust or Try a Different Ear Tip’. - If you don’t need to switch
out your tips, you’re good. If you
got the yellow warning, though,
remove the tips and try again

don’t be afraid to tug them a little
