Quick tip of the day

Apple’s AirPods are small, making them easy to lose. And replacing one costs $69 for the base model and $89 for a single AirPod Pro. Ouch!

Accidents happen, but misplacing an AirPod doesn’t mean it’s gone forever. Just open the Find My app on your iPhone, iPad or Mac, then tap the Devices tab and choose AirPods.

🕵️‍♀️ Insider secret: You’ll only see one AirPod location at a time on the map. If it pinpoints the one that’s not missing, put it back in the charging case, then refresh the map to show the location of the one you can’t find.

Easy, right? While we’re on the topic, here are four simple ways to customize your Apple AirPods.
