I replaced my iPhone with a Pixel 7a running Graphene OS.

Everything I see online says I should be able to easily connect my Airpods by opening up the Bluetooth settings and clicking "Pair" on the phone while the case is open...but it never seems to find my Airpods.

It does find my partner's Mac and other nearby Apple products, including what I think are my neighbors'!

The Airpods are fully charged. The old iPhone now belongs to my kid, which I wiped before giving it to them.

Any suggestions?

Yes! It worked, thank you! I never ran across these instructions in my searches.

My search was "pair airpods on android" nothing crazy. You're welcome!

Haha, I kept using "Pixel 7" and "GrapheneOS" as search terms. I'm not used to having an Android phone and didn't even know what to properly call it, I guess. :)
