Yes. AirPods Pro pair with Android phones as Bluetooth headphones, so you can listen to audio and take calls. You cannot use Siri on a non-Apple device, and Apple warns that functionality may be limited. The exact experience depends on the AirPods Pro generation and Android phone.

What works when AirPods Pro are connected to Android?

Apple says AirPods can be used as wireless Bluetooth headphones with non-Apple devices, but notes that functionality may be limited. Its support guide specifically confirms that you can listen and talk with AirPods on a non-Apple device, while Siri is unavailable. See Apple’s pairing guidance for non-Apple devices and its AirPods Pro 2 specifications.

  • Audio playback: You can use them to listen to audio over Bluetooth.
  • Calls: Apple confirms that you can talk with AirPods on a non-Apple device.
  • Siri: Siri is not available through the Android device.

Core Bluetooth compatibility is not the same as the full Apple-device experience. Apple’s published information does not provide a complete Android feature checklist, so specific features beyond playback, calls and Siri should be checked for your model and phone rather than assumed.

How to pair AirPods Pro with an Android phone

For first- and second-generation AirPods Pro, use the case’s setup button to put the earbuds into pairing mode, then select them in Android Bluetooth settings.

Yojaro 4Pack Silicone Suction Phone Case Mount, Silicon Adhesive Smartphones Stand Sticky, Hands-Free Phone Accessories Holder for Selfies and Videos (Black & White & Translucent & Light Pink)
  • 【Strong Adsorption】The inspiration of the silicone phone suction case comes from the adhesive force of the octopus.

  • 【Back of Phone Suction Grip】Remove the adhesive film on the phone suction cup and stick it on the phone case. You can then fix the phone on any smooth surface, which is very convenient. (The phone suction cup cannot be removed and reused after being attached to the phone case. It is recommended to attach it to a regular phone case, not a valuable one.)
  • 【Widely Used】Our non-slip silicone phone sticky grip mount attaches to almost any flat phone case and make it compatible with common mobile phones such as iPhone and Android.You can shoot, watch videos or video calls in the kitchen, gym, dance studio, bathroom and other places.
  • 【Capture the Wonderful Picture】Whether you are a TikTok creator or just like to share videos and photos, this phone suction cup can help you hands-free capture wonderful videos and photos for sharing with friends.
  • 【Note】You can fix the phone suction cup on a smooth surface such as a mirror or glass. If necessary, wipe the suction cup with a damp cloth to obtain stronger suction. Before releasing your hand, make sure the phone is firmly fixed. (Not applicable to rough walls, wooden surfaces, and other uneven surfaces)
  1. Put both AirPods Pro in their case and open the lid.
  2. Press and hold the setup button on the back of the case for about five seconds, until the status light flashes white.
  3. On your Android phone, open Bluetooth settings and choose the option to pair or connect a new device. Select your AirPods when they appear in the available-device list.

Android menu names vary by phone maker and software version. Apple’s pairing guide gives different pairing steps for AirPods Pro 3, so identify your generation and case before following instructions.

Which controls and listening modes can you use?

AirPods Pro have controls on the earbuds themselves. Apple’s documentation for AirPods Pro 2 describes press gestures for playback, skipping tracks, calls and switching listening modes. The available behavior and configuration can differ by model; the existence of a hardware control does not guarantee that every function or setting will behave identically on every Android phone. See Apple’s AirPods controls guide.

Apple EarPods Headphones with USB-C Plug, Wired Ear Buds with Built-in Remote to Control Music, Phone Calls, and Volume
  • SUPERIOR COMFORT — Unlike traditional circular ear buds, the design of EarPods is defined by the geometry of the ear. Which makes them more comfortable for more people than any other ear bud–style headphones.
  • HIGH-QUALITY AUDIO — The speakers inside EarPods have been engineered to maximize sound output and minimize sound loss, which means you get high-quality audio.
  • BUILT-IN REMOTE — EarPods with USB-C plug also include a built-in remote that lets you adjust the volume, control the playback of music and video, and answer or end calls with a pinch of the cord.
  • COMPATIBILITY — Works with all devices that have a USB-C port.
  • INTEGRATED MICROPHONE — A built-in microphone precisely captures your voice while you’re on the phone, taking a FaceTime call, or summoning Siri — so you’re always heard loud and clear.

Which features are uncertain or limited on Android?

Apple cautions that functionality may be limited on non-Apple devices, but the official materials cited here do not give a comprehensive Android-specific list of features that are unavailable. In particular, they do not settle Android support for battery readouts, automatic device switching, ear detection, personalized spatial audio, Find My, or every computational listening mode on newer Pro models.

If one of those capabilities is essential, verify it for the exact AirPods Pro generation and Android phone before relying on it. Avoid treating general AirPods specifications as proof that a feature is supported on Android.

Why AirPods Pro generation matters

Pairing instructions and hardware specifications are not identical across generations. Apple lists Bluetooth 5.0 for first-generation AirPods Pro. Its USB-C charging-case specifications identify AirPods Pro 2 as a model introduced in 2023 and list Bluetooth 5.3. These are Apple product specifications, not independent Android compatibility tests.

Apple also gives different pairing instructions for AirPods Pro 3 than for Pro 1 and Pro 2. Check the model and charging case you own before pairing or comparing specifications. For AirPods Pro 2, Apple states up to six hours of listening time per charge under its specified test conditions; this is not a guaranteed runtime figure for Android use.

Are AirPods Pro a good choice for Android?

They can serve as Bluetooth earbuds for playback and calls if you already own them or are comfortable with the limited, less fully documented Android experience. If you depend on Siri or on an Apple-specific feature, do not assume it will work from Android. For any other feature that matters to you, confirm support for your particular generation and phone before making a decision.
