Open the Find My app on an iPhone or iPad that you previously paired with your AirPods. Tap Devices, tap the name of your AirPods, then tap Find. Start moving around to locate your AirPods and follow the onscreen instructions.
This is How to Find Lost Airpods that are Offline:
Play a sound on your AirPods: If your AirPods are within Bluetooth range of any of your Apple devices, you can use the Find My app to play a sound on your AirPods. This can help you locate them if they are nearby, even if they are offline.
However, it only worked if your phone was within Bluetooth range of your AirPods. In other words, you had to be within 30 feet of the missing AirPods to locate them.
You can turn on the Find My network to see the location of some AirPods models even when they're out of range from your device. If the Find My network is turned off (or if your AirPods don't support the Find My network), the Find My app shows the last time and place they were connected. See Turn on the Find My network.
While you can lock devices like your iPhone or Mac remotely with Lost Mode, you can't do the same with AirPods. That said, anyone can easily use stolen AirPods when they find them. Unfortunately, Apple Warranty or AppleCare+ do not cover lost and stolen AirPods.
You can't find your AirPods if someone connects to them on their device. AirPods do not have Wifi access and only function through a Bluetooth connection. Thus, stolen AirPods will remain operational and untrackable. You can track your AirPods only if they connect to your device and sync to iCloud.
For this reason, using Find My AirPods to locate an AirPod that's been left behind isn't going to be particularly accurate, but it will give you a general idea of where they were lost so you can go back to the location.
It's easy to lose your AirPods because you forget them in a room or area when you leave. You can avoid this by getting in the habit of checking for your AirPods before you leave a particular space. This might seem like a lot of work, but you probably already have the habit of checking for your keys, phone, and wallet.
The earbuds don't have a GPS connection, so Apple employs the iPhone's GPS tech. The map inside the Find My iPhone app will show you the last place the AirPods were in range of an iOS device connected to your iCloud account.
Because the AirPods are out of battery, it won't be able to transmit the signal needed to display its location. However, you can still use the Find My app to find its last known location and place it in Lost Mode in case it's found by someone else.
Due to the AirPods' small size and battery constraints, there's no built-in GPS connection, so you can't remotely pinpoint their exact whereabouts. To overcome that, Apple relies on the GPS in your iPhone or iPad, like most dedicated lost-item Bluetooth trackers.
If the option to play a sound isn't available, the item might not be with you anymore. Or if it was with you overnight, its identifier might have changed. Find My uses the identifier to determine that it's the same item moving with you. If the item is within range of its owner, you also won't be able to play a sound.
Hello ~ The best thing to do is turn them in to your local law enforcement department. The owners are most likely to check there.

Frequently using your AirPods without cleaning them causes their tips to collect oil and earwax over time. This can ultimately cause your earbuds to easily fall out from your ears. If this is the case, you might have to wear your AirPods in the wrong position to keep them from falling out.
Yes! My airpods took my iPhone 7plus down 25% in just 1 hour. I had to purchase a battery case just to make it through the day. On my $30 Bluetooth headphones battery life didn't change so I was surprised this new W1 chip drains power.
