Listen and respond to messages with AirPods on iPod touch
With Announce Messages, you can listen to your messages with your AirPods (not available on AirPods 1st generation; iOS 14.3 or later required for AirPods Max). When your iPod touch is locked, your AirPods are connected to it, and a message arrives, a chime sounds and Siri begins to read the message.
Reply to a message
Say something like “Reply that’s great news.”
Siri repeats what you said, then asks for confirmation before sending your reply. (To send replies without waiting for confirmation, go to Settings > Siri & Search > Announce Messages, then turn on Reply without Confirmation.)
Stop Siri from reading a message
You can do any of the following:
- Say something like “Stop” or “Cancel.”
- Press the Digital Crown (AirPods Max).
Note: While listening to a message, you can turn the Digital Crown to change the volume.
-
Press either Force Sensor (AirPods Pro).
-
Double-tap either of your AirPods (2nd generation).
-
Remove one of your AirPods (AirPods Pro and AirPods 2nd generation).
If you didn’t turn on Announce Messages when you set up your AirPods, go to Settings > Siri & Search > Announce Messages, then turn on Announce Messages with Siri.
