This update introduces new battery management features for your AirPods Pro, giving you more control over how they charge. With Optimized Charge Limit and Charging Notifications, you can extend the lifespan of your battery and get helpful reminders to ensure your AirPods are always ready when you need them.
We've added a dedicated Battery section in your AirPods settings, which includes two new key features. The first is Optimized Charge Limit, a smart feature that helps reduce battery aging by learning your daily usage and limiting the charge to 80% until you need it. The second is Charging Notifications, which sends you an alert when your AirPods or their case have a low battery, so you never forget to charge them.
If you are preparing for travel and want to ensure your AirPods are fully charged, you don't need to permanently disable optimized charging. When you go into the Battery settings, you can select Turn Off Until Tomorrow. This gives you a full charge for your trip while allowing the battery-saving feature to resume automatically the next day.
The new battery management features provide intelligent tools to improve the long-term health and daily convenience of your AirPods Pro. By using Optimized Charge Limit, you can reduce battery aging, and with Charging Notifications, you'll always know when it's time to power up. These settings give you greater control and peace of mind over your device's battery performance.
