There is something especially interesting that you do not know, but one that will allow you to get the most out of your AirPods. It's about being able to share music on the same mobile device using two different headsets, be it AirPods or Beats.
In this case, it is enough for users to get close to one another. This feature is called Audio Sharing, which is added in iOS 13 and iPadOS 13, which lets you extract audio from iPhone or iPad to two sets of AirPods or Apple Beats.
With Audio Sharing you can either share audio or music between the two, each can use their own headphones. They both get the complete effect of each of their heads individually. Therefore, you will no longer be tied to a cord and can hear it on the stereo.
What do I need
First, you need a compatible iPhone, that is, the latest one. You should also use iOS 13.1 or iPadOS 13.1 versions or later. According to the iPhone, the ones that support Audio Sharing are: iPhone 8, 8 Plus, X, XR, XS, XS Max, 11, 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max.
When we go to tablets, these are the 9.7-inch iPad for 2017 and 2018, the 10.2-inch iPad, iPad mini (2019), iPad Air (2019) and any iPad Pro for the year 2017 or later. They all ensure compliance with the project.
In the end, the seventh-generation touch on the iPod also falls to those who are supported.
Headphones must also meet the requirements. Although in some cases reference is made to share Audio Sharing functionality with AirPods, it is not limited to AirPods, but requires each user to use headphones with an Apple H1 or W1 chip.
That includes AirPod or AirPod Pro, in addition to Beats Solo3 Wireless and Studio3 Wireless, BeatsX, Powerbeats3 Wireless and Powerbeats Pro. If in doubt, you should check the specifications and make sure they contain an H1 or W1 processor.
