iOS 11 Adds Next Track and Previous Track Functionality to AirPods

Posted June 6, 2017 at 10:52pm by iClarified
Apple's first beta of iOS 11 brings Next Track and Previous Track functionality to its wireless AirPods, a feature that has long been requested by customers.

You can now choose between Siri, Play/Pause, Next Track, and Previous Track actions when double tapping an AirPod. Additionally, you can set a different action on each AirPod, something which was not possible before.

Is this something you were waiting for? Let us know in the comments!

They may as well add a triple tap while they're at it.

Hell yes that's going to be a swweeettt feature, I've purchased numerous pairs of Bluetooth headphones, both wired and wireless, the wireless brands absolutely sucked until the AirPods, by far the most versatile and comfortable wireless on the market if your an iPhone user especially, I highly recommend these to anyone, and thanks apple for the update!!

Have you ever tried LG HBS wireless earbuds? Those were awesome until I finally messed them up after 3 years of abuse. Now I can't wait to get some AirPods.
