Apple's AirPods are very easy to carry, and they are compact. Despite being convenient, it is very prone to get lost.

Apple is solving that issue by updating the iOS 15 and adding the new Notify When Left Behind feature, which notifies you when you don't have your AirPods.

When you turn on the Notify When Left Behind feature, your iPhone will immediately alert you when you have left a place without your AirPods, according to CNET.

You can also make sure that your phone does not notify you if you left your AirPods at home. If you turn off the feature, you won't get an alert every time you leave your house.

The feature is very useful, especially if you are worried about leaving your AirPods in unusual places. It is not just for AirPods--you can turn on the setting for AirTags and other Apple products as well, according to MacObserver.
