Q10: Why does the audio play through the phone's speaker when double-tapping the touch area of the Xiaomi Clip during a WhatsApp or Teams voice call?
A: When using WhatsApp or Teams for voice calls, double-tapping the earbud touch area is recognized by the system as a call-switching command. This switches the call audio to the phone, causing the sound to play externally. If this occurs, end the current voice call and redial to resolve it.
Note:
For network calls like WhatsApp and Teams, behavior may vary across different versions of third-party apps.
Q11: Why is the Xiaomi Clip detected as being worn and playing music when it is not actually worn?
A: 1. Sweat, water stains, or dirt left on the earbud touch area may cause the earbuds to falsely detect them as being worn. Check the earbuds and charging case regularly for dirt and clean them promptly if found.
2. Holding the earbuds in your hand can easily cause accidental touches on the touch area. If music plays when the earbuds are laid flat on a desk, it can be paused and will return to normal, which is a normal phenomenon.
3. When the listening sphere and the touch area are pressed together (such as when gripping or squeezing the earbuds for storage), it can trigger the wear detection. The earbuds will resume the paused state once the two spheres are separated, which is a normal phenomenon.
4. If the earbuds are in the case and the charging case is completely out of power, the earbuds will not pause playback when placed inside. Once the case is charged, the normal function will be restored, which is a normal phenomenon.
Sound Effect
Q1: Why is the sound of the Xiaomi Clip intermittent?
