Please enjoy the story of a writer chasing his AirPods Pro across Sydney. It has a happy ending!

The actual AirPods with me at home, and my case going for a joyride.I tried to turn these into a positive. The fact I was able to view the location of my AirPods Pro 2 case, which was being continuously updated and appeared to be on the bus route I’d just gotten off from, did give me a slight feeling of reassurance. The fact it hadn’t deviated from the bus route meant it wasn’t in the pocket of someone else and potentially beginning a second journey to an online marketplace.

I can’t say for sure if any of these features worked because not only did I have the actual AirPods on me , but I never received a notification or a phone call. This could either be because nobody with an iPhone found the case, or that both the AirPods and their case need to be lost for the feature to work. I continued to track the case’s location in Find My and soon noticed it had settled in a location both far from the bus route and far from my home.

As soon as Monday morning came around, I found a phone number for the depot called it and described the case to them. Top tip, everyone: put your AirPods case into a case of its own. Mine has a gray silicone case, which made it much easier to describe for the person at lost property. Reunited and it feels so good.best true wireless earbuds
