How to Disable AirPods From Switching Between Apple Devices – Guide

When you start playing music, a podcast or other audio files on your “iPhone”, the AirPods will automatically change to “iPhone”. You can also switch to “iPhone” when making or receiving a call on your “iPhone”.

If you’re an iPhone or iPad user by default, then switching to AirPods is convenient and probably what you want. If you frequently use your devices at the same time, for example listening to music on your phone when playing a video on an iPad, then the automatic behavior can be annoying.
