One thing regarding the subscription, it works on a family plan. so if you are on a shared account, you only have the one $4.95 subscription fee to pay. I’m trying out the app and so far, It’s interesting. No surprise, the phone version is better. > On May 3, 2022, at 03:08, Anders Holmberg

Actually, I should have said that I’ve had to forget and pair them again. Have reset them once but can’t remember how as it was last year. The problem I have from time to time is that they simply won’t connect to my phone, even when I try to do it manually. When going back to them later they

Hi Joseph, I’m not sure about the USB-C to lightning cable, actually I don’t think it will do the job. I found out about the bi directional audio cable by looking through the AirPods Max literature and Apple support. Otherwise I never would’ve known about it. A Anders, I guess they hurt my ears

Interesting take. Thanks Kliph. I’m more interested in them for listening, so the mic thing probably won’t be as big a deal for me. That Bose feature does sound nice, but I much prefer the sound on apple headphones than Bose. Cheers, Donna > On May 3, 2022, at 8:20 AM, Kliph wrote: > > I

I think that until processing gets much better, you’re always going to have Bluetooth limitations when it comes to two-way transmitting. This is something they could play with more so on the M1 Macs, but I think it’s probably a lower priority to them. > On May 3, 2022, at 08:20, Kliph wrote:

Hi! Well if you don’t like wearing headphones then I really understand why you don’t like wearing them to long. I admit that they are quite heavy and if I was made of money I would rather buy the Bang & Olufsen Beoplay H95. The cable is pretty steep for a cable. I have it and its a thin long
