Pixel buds are the Bluetooth earbuds from tech giant Google. All thanks to google for launching these buds which give seamless android control as well as the amazing volume output. But Sometimes, these buds have trouble pairing with the android device. Many users have been reporting that their Google Pixel Buds are not showing up on Bluetooth despite many attempts.
When your Pixel bud stops working, you need to find it by yourself what may be the reason, maybe one of the buds is damaged and need to get fixed by the google service center. Or maybe your case is not charged, or it can be some pairing issues, which you can fix by yourself with some basic troubleshooting.
Why your Pixel bud is not showing up?
When the device doesn’t show up in your Bluetooth devices list, there may be some problem with the charging, or maybe the buds are dirty, or it can be some connection issues that you need to fix by yourself.
Case 1: Pixel buds are not showing up
- Open your Bluetooth devices list from the settings. Navigate to Setting>Connected devices>Bluetooth.
- Tap on the previously connected devices.
- A list will show up with all the Bluetooth devices you have ever paired with, Search for the Pixel buds in that list.
- Tap and hold on to the Pixel bud and forget Pixel bud from the list.
- Leave the charging case open, ensuring that the Pixel buds are inside the case.
- Hold the pairing button for 3 seconds, if the white pairing light starts blinking it means your buds are ready to get paired.
- Open Bluetooth settings and add Pixel bud as your new device.
Even after doing all this, if you are still unable to find your buds in your Bluetooth menu you can try this method too.
- Plug the charging case into the socket using the provided USB.
- Remove the buds from the case.
- Insert one earbud and see if the status light is blinking.
- If it is blinking that means your earbuds are responding.
Case 2: If your one bud is working fine and one bud is Not
When one bud is giving volume output, and the other bud is mute like all of us during exam time. It may be a battery problem. Try to charge the earbud case. And try to update the device’s firmware to the latest version.
