AIR FAQ
How do I charge my headphones?
You can charge your headphones with the provided micro USB charger. Insert the micro USB end into the micro USB charging port on the headphones, located beneath the protective flap, next to the volume+ button. Insert the standard USB end of the charger into a USB port on a computer, wall adapter, or other charger. Please ensure the charger does not exceed 5.25 amp or 5 volts. We do not recommend fast chargers.

You can also check battery status by powering on your headphones and clicking volume+ or volume-. Audrey will say “Battery High,” “Battery Medium,” “Battery low” or “Charge me.”

Can individuals with hearing loss benefit from bone conduction headphones?
AfterShokz has a strong community of individuals with hearing loss.

The most popular app our customers use is Petralex.
As a sport headphone company, we don’t have the qualifications to determine whether our headphones will work for any particular individual, or improve the effects of any medical condition, but with a 30-day return window on all orders placed on our website, and plenty of retailers with in-store demos, we encourage you to give them a try.

Yes, bone conduction headphones can benefit those with vision loss by allowing users to listen to navigation instruction while still hearing their surroundings.
