Each AirPod has its own serial number. The serial number is a unique identifier that differentiates a particular set of Airpods from the rest of the Airpods in the world. These unique numbers grant the user access to warranty status, and details about your device, and even prove Airpods ownership. You can find your Airpods’ serial number in several places, including device Settings, on the physical device, and on the original packaging.

Method 1: Check Settings on iOS or iPadOS for AirPods Serial Number
This is the simplest method but it only works if the AirPods are connected to the device via Bluetooth. Here is how to use device settings to find the serial number of your Airpods;
1. Open the Settings app on your IOS or iPad device.
2. Select Bluetooth from the Settings menu.
3. Find your AirPods in the list (for example, “Maria’s AirPods”).
4. Tap the More Info button (i) next to your AirPods to see the serial number.
5. Scroll down to the “About” section. The About section entails the Airpod’s serial number, Model name, Model number, and version.
Method 2: Check your AirPods for Serial Number
The serial number is always printed on the Airpods or the Airpods charging cases depending on the Airpods model or version.
If you have AirPods or AirPods Pro, your AirPods and your charging case share a serial number. You can find the serial number on the underside of the lid of your Charging Case, Wireless Charging Case, or MagSafe Charging Case.
For AirPods Max detach the left magnetic ear cushion to see the serial number.
Method 3: Check the Original Packaging for AirPods Serial Number
Some individuals keep the original packaging as their souvenirs. But that’s not all, since original packaging entails product serial number, model name, model number, and version, some individuals retain the original packaging as a source of information. If you still have your Airpod’s original packaging, you can find the serial number next to the barcode. You can also find the serial number on the original product receipt or invoice.
