Google released the Pixel Buds two years ago, October to be precise. They come with the Google Assistant and they possess a native Google Translate support, which makes them attractive to Google users.

If you are an iPhone owner and you wish to pair it with a pair of Pixel Buds, the manual route can make that happen because the Fast Pair feature works only for Android owners. In this tutorial, we will highlight the setup process and even touch on some important tips.

The Setup

The manual setup will take more of your time than the Fast Pair route, but you will be enjoying your fresh Pixel Buds in no time. See below for how you can connect your iPhone with your new earbuds:

  • If you are yet to, unpack your earbuds. Take off the protective film if you see one before moving on to the next step.
  • Immediately you remove the protective film, leave the buds in and close the case. It is vital to charge the buds for sometime before the setup, this is even more compulsory if they are brand new. You have to charge them for 10 minutes, at least, and that will make things set for the setup. If your buds are not brand new, check the battery status. If one pulsing orange indicator is visible, the power level is too low and your buds cannot pair with your iOS device. Have them charged until the orange LED turns to white. The white LED should pulse too. Google warns new users to read the official safety guide so they can be sure that they are charging their earbuds properly. This information can also be found in the printed guide you will see in the Pixel Buds packaging.
