AirPods/AirPods Pro — One Hack to Identify Them All


Ever stick your AirPods or AirPods Pro in the wrong ear(s)?

I have — many times.

I'm betting most other people have too.

Sometimes I don't realize it till I start running and one or both of the erroneously situated devices fall out.

It's almost impossible to distinguish Left from Right just looking at them: that's because the identifying L and R capital letters are less than 2 mm high and rendered in a light grey that's barely visible against the shiny white body.

No más.

Take a red Sharpie (ultra fine or fine point) and make a little red dot on the bottom of the Right AirPod (watch the boj World Premiere Video©®™ up top to see this hack in action).

R is for Red/Right

From now on just glance at your AirPods and Bob's your uncle.
