Unfortunately, you can't directly connect AirPods to older iPod touch models. This is because older iPod touch models lack the necessary Bluetooth technology to support AirPods.
Here's why:
- Older iPod touch models: These models were released before Apple introduced the necessary Bluetooth technology required for AirPods.
- AirPods: AirPods rely on Bluetooth 5.0 or later for seamless connection and audio quality.
What can you do?
- Upgrade your iPod touch: Consider upgrading to a newer iPod touch model that supports Bluetooth 5.0 or later.
- Use wired headphones: If you want to listen to music on your older iPod touch, you can use wired headphones.
- Use a Bluetooth receiver: Connect a Bluetooth receiver to your iPod touch's headphone jack and then pair your AirPods with the receiver.
