Welcome to Podstool

Since the introduction of Bluetooth earphones, their popularity has surged, becoming an essential tool for enhancing productivity among mobile professionals.

This innovative app supports a wide range of earphones including AirPods 1, 2, Pro, Max, knock-offs, Beats Solo³, Solo Pro, X, Flex, and more. It offers free, ad-free features that significantly enhance user experience. Its standout feature is the location tracking, which allows users to locate their earphones by playing a sound, and it can pause music when the earphones are removed, demonstrating a high level of user-friendliness. If you need these features, download and experience Podstool now.
