Meet the 15-year-old making AirPods cooler for Android users
Kavish Devar, a 15-year-old from Gurugram, built an app called LibrePods that lets Android and Linux users unlock advanced AirPods features usually reserved for iPhones.
By reverse-engineering Apple's tech, he made things like ear detection and noise control work outside the Apple bubble.
The app is open-source and up on GitHub, drawing attention worldwide after a viral tweet.
What LibrePods actually does
LibrePods brings head-gesture controls, transparency mode, and device renaming to Android—features that were once only for Apple fans.
AirPods Pro users get the biggest upgrade, but even older models now show accurate battery info.
Devar's project is a great example of how young developers can break down tech barriers and make cool stuff more accessible for everyone.
