Clean your AirPods
AirPods get muffled mostly from earwax and dust on the mesh, and sometimes from moisture after a workout or rain. A gentle cleaning tone helps loosen debris so you can brush it away.
Max your volume, then press start. Place the speaker facing down.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I clean muffled AirPods?
Most AirPod muffling is earwax or dust on the speaker mesh. Run the cleaning tone to loosen it, then gently brush the mesh with a dry soft brush. Avoid liquids.
Can I get water out of AirPods with sound?
Sound helps shed surface moisture, but AirPods are small β also let them air-dry fully and never charge them while damp.
What frequency cleans AirPods best?
A mid-high tone around 2,000 Hz (Dust Clean mode) vibrates fine wax and dust loose without being harsh.
