Controlling Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) on AirPods when paired with an Android device requires leveraging third-party applications, as native iOS control options are unavailable. These apps act as intermediaries, enabling adjustment of the noise cancellation feature directly from the Android smartphone or tablet.
The ability to manage ANC provides users with greater control over their audio environment. This feature reduces distracting ambient sounds, enhancing the listening experience while improving focus during work, travel, or leisure activities. Historically, control over AirPod features was largely restricted to Apple’s ecosystem; however, these applications bridge that gap, increasing usability across different operating systems.
