Sometimes you just need to restart the AirPod Max to fix any issues

As great as the AirPods Max are, they're far from perfect. Like with any Apple product, even the best iPhone, you may need to restart every once in a while to work out any kinks you're experiencing.

But since the AirPods Max don't exactly have a power button, how do you restart them when you need to? Don't worry, it's pretty easy and straightforward to do.

Here's everything you need to know about how to restart AirPods Max!

How to restart AirPods Max

When you experience weird audio issues or connectivity problems with your AirPods Max, sometimes just trying to restart it is your best bet. Since there is no power button on the AirPods Max, it can be a little trickier to figure out how to reboot them. Thankfully, all it involves is the Digital Crown and the Noise Control button.

  1. Press and hold the Digital Crown and Noise Control buttons on the right headphone at the same time.

  2. Hold these buttons for about 12 seconds until the status light next to the charging port flashes amber.
  3. Immediately release the buttons — otherwise, you'll be doing a factory reset instead of a restart.

This is the easiest way to give your AirPods Max a reboot, and hopefully, it fixes any issues you were having. But if it doesn't, then you may want to consider returning your AirPods Max to the factory settings, just as they were when you bought them.

How to return AirPods Max to factory settings

While restarting your AirPods Max should fix most issues, sometimes they will continue to persist. If that's the case, then you should try returning the AirPods Max to factory settings, which is the state that they were in when you purchased them. Doing this means you will need to pair the AirPods Max up with your devices again, but it should resolve any lingering issues you may have experienced.

  1. Press and hold the Digital Crown and Noise Control buttons on the right headphone at the same time.

  2. Hold these buttons for about 15 seconds, until the status light next to the charging port changes from flashing amber to flashing white.

Questions about how to restart AirPods Max?

As you can see, restarting the AirPods Max is pretty easy and involves pressing down the two buttons for a while. Of course, a restart should fix most issues, but if the problem you have continues, then a factory restore may be needed, and that's still the same process. Regardless, the AirPods Max are still some of our favorite noise-canceling headphones, and definitely worth the price if you can afford them.
