How to Find Your Lost Apple AirPods 4 in Minutes

Losing your $129 AirPods 4 is stressful. But if they still have battery, they're broadcasting an invisible Bluetooth Low Energy signal right now. EarBuddy turns your phone into a radar that can detect that signal and guide you straight to them.

Why Find My Isn't Enough

Find My can show the last known location, but if your AirPods 4 are offline or out of Bluetooth range of any Apple device, it cannot actively guide you to them.

How EarBuddy Finds Your AirPods 4

Because Apple uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE 5.3), your AirPods 4 constantly broadcasts a short-range signal — even when disconnected. EarBuddy scans for this signal and shows you real-time signal strength on a radar display, guiding you physically to the device.

Open EarBuddy and tap Start Scanning.

Walk slowly around the area where you last had your AirPods 4.

Watch the signal strength indicator — it increases as you get closer.

When the signal peaks, your AirPods 4 are within a few feet.

Check under cushions, in pockets, or between seat gaps.

Ready to Find Your AirPods 4?

Download EarBuddy and start scanning in seconds. The Bluetooth radar works with all BLE devices — no pairing required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I find my AirPods 4 if they are dead?

If the battery is completely dead, no Bluetooth signal is emitted. EarBuddy works best when your AirPods still have some charge. The case also emits a BLE signal while it has battery.

Does EarBuddy work better than Find My for AirPods 4?

Find My shows last known location on a map. EarBuddy complements it by giving you a real-time radar that shows signal strength as you physically search, helping you pinpoint the exact spot.
