Frequently Asked Questions
Will AirFly SE work with my headphones? Does it only work with AirPods?
AirFly SE works with all Bluetooth wireless headphones — not just AirPods. Sony, Bose, Beats, Samsung Galaxy Buds, and any headphone that connects to a phone over Bluetooth will pair with AirFly SE. If your headphones support standard Bluetooth and can enter pairing mode, they're compatible.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I pair AirFly SE for the first time?
Plug AirFly SE into the headphone jack of your audio source. Power it on and it will automatically enter pairing mode (light flashes white and amber). Put your headphones in pairing mode. AirFly SE will detect and connect automatically within a few seconds. Once paired, it will reconnect to the same headphones automatically on future uses.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the battery last, and how does AirFly SE charge?
AirFly SE delivers 20+ hours of battery life on a single charge, which covers most flights and back-to-back gym sessions. It charges via USB-C. The amber light stays solid while charging and turns off when fully charged.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the airplane's dual-prong headphone jack work with AirFly SE?
AirFly SE has a standard single 3.5mm plug, which works with most seatback entertainment systems. If your airplane uses a dual-prong audio outlet (common on older international flights), you'll need the Twelve South Deluxe International Airline Headphone Adapter ($9.99), which is sold separately and has a single 3.5mm output that AirFly SE plugs directly into.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does AirFly SE do, and where can I use it?
AirFly SE is a compact Bluetooth transmitter that plugs into any standard 3.5mm headphone jack and wirelessly connects one pair of Bluetooth headphones or earbuds. Use it anywhere audio is only available via a headphone jack, like airplane seatback entertainment, gym treadmills, hotel TVs, gaming consoles like Nintendo Switch, or older car stereos.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use AirFly Pro with hearing aids?
AirFly SE may work with hearing aids that support standard Bluetooth and can enter pairing mode without a smartphone app. However, hearing aids that rely on Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) or require a companion app to pair are not compatible. Because hearing aid Bluetooth implementations vary widely by brand and model, we recommend checking with your hearing aid manufacturer before purchasing. If you have questions about your specific device, our support team is happy to help.
