Introduction
Choose your AirPods Pro ear tips and use the Ear Tip Fit Test
Your AirPods Pro come with a choice of small, medium, and large silicone ear tips. When you use the best-sized ear tips for you, you get the best sound quality and superior noise cancellation.
Choose the best ear tip size
Your ear tips should make a good seal with your ear canal. When the fit is right, you experience better noise cancellation, and music has a rich bass sound.
Your AirPods Pro (2nd generation) come with four sizes of ear tips. The medium size comes already attached. Extra small, small, and large sizes are in the box that your AirPods Pro came in, under the tray, nested inside the charging cable.
Your AirPods Pro (1st generation) come with three sizes of ear tips. The medium size comes already attached, and small and large sizes are in the box that your AirPods Pro came in, under the tray, nested inside the charging cable.
Ear tips have been designed specifically for their AirPods Pro generation, to deliver the highest-fidelity audio experience. As a result, use the ear tips that come with your AirPods Pro. AirPods Pro (1st generation) ear tips have noticeably denser mesh than AirPods Pro (2nd generation) ear tips.
To check the size of an ear tip, unroll its edge and look for XS, S, M, or L etched on the inside of the ear tip near its base.
Try inserting the AirPods with the medium-sized ear tips in your ears so that the AirPods are seated comfortably and securely. If you can’t get a good seal, try adjusting the AirPod or switch to a larger ear tip. If the ear tip feels too large in your ear or is uncomfortable, try a smaller ear tip.

Carefully pop out (or flip out) the ear tip of your AirPods Pro, prior to trying to remove them. This will ensure that you avoid accidentally ripping the delicate end of the AirPod Pro ear tip.

-
Don't rip the ear tip off using the end. Make sure you gently, but firmly pull the AirPod Pro ear tip from the earbud close to where it connects. It takes a little force, so don't be afraid to pull it out.

Align the new ear tip so that either the "L" or the "R" align with the black stripe on the AirPods Pro earbuds.
-
Snap in the new ear tip. (You should hear it snap.)
-
Fold back the silicon ear tip to the normal position

Try Apple's ear tip fit test to see if your buds fit correctly and if they work well with your ears. If it tells you to change it, try a smaller or bigger one out by repeating all steps over.

Doesn’t work, both tips stuck firmly. Thinking of using small screwdriver to pull it off. Using AirPods Pro 2. Change right one easily, but the lady one is stubborn. Now the right one is stubborn as well
Hello. The procedures should be pretty straightforward. Make sure they are aligned and try to use official ear tips. When buying replacements, make sure you bought the gen 2 tips, not the gen 1. Idk if they are the same thing or not, but see if that will work. If not, ask your question in the answers forum and see if someone can help you. It may be a problem with the connector or clip mechanism.
