Feature description

If an earbud being worn is detected to have fallen off and been hit, you can receive both a prompt tone from the other earbud and a notification on your phone's Notification Panel.

a) The prompt tone: The other earbud still being worn will play a "ding" tone.

b) The notification: When an earbud is detected to have possibly fallen off, Audio Accessory Manager will push a drop-off notification to your phone.

 
  • You may not receive the prompt tone when you are wearing only one earbud and the earbud has fallen off.
  • Currently, the notification pushing is supported only on HUAWEI phones. Update Audio Accessory Manager to 14.0.8.377 or later, open the app, and enable the push permission.

More FAQs

  • No prompt tone playing or notification pushing when my earbud has fallen off

The feature is only an auxiliary reminder to inform you that your earbud may have fallen off. It is prone to failure on occasion. Remember to keep track of the earbuds on your own as well.

  • Adjusting the volume level of Drop detection's prompt tone

The prompt tone is built in the system and cannot be turned up or down.
