Latest Airpods Libreated From Apple's Ecosystem 2025

LibrePods unlocks Apple's exclusive AirPods features on non-Apple devices. Get access to noise control modes, adaptive transparency, ear detection, hearing aid, customized transparency mode, battery status, and more - all the premium features you paid for but Apple locked to their ecosystem.

Most features should work with any AirPods. Currently, I've only got AirPods Pro 2 to test with.

See our pinned issue for a complete feature list and roadmap.

The Linux version runs as a system tray app. Connect your AirPods and enjoy:

Work in progress, but core functionality is stable and usable.

For installation and detailed info, see the Linux README.

You must have a rooted device with Xposed to use LibrePods on Android. This is due to a bug in the Android Bluetooth stack. Please upvote the issue by clicking the '+1' icon on the IssueTracker page.

There are no exceptions to the root requirement until Google merges the fix.

Until then, you must xposed. I used to provide a non-xposed method too, where the module used overlayfs to replace the bluetooth library with a locally patched one, but that was broken due to how various devices handled overlayfs and a patched library. With xposed, you can also enable the DID hook enabling a few extra features.
