I’ve looked around and my impression is that there is no software-side solution to turn off touch controls in the fairbuds. I’m fairly satisfied by them (no interest in hi-fi audio or top notch noise cancelling), but the touch controls activate with the slightest contact making them very annoying. I was wondering if there might be a possibility to physically stop the touch controls from working, given their repairability maybe crippling some functionality is not technically that difficult? Only control I’m interested in keeping access to is the noise cancelling mode and that can be done from the app.
Just annoyed that part of the reason of getting these buds is to keep them and repair them for a long time, but the design is flawed in a way that I will just need to get new buds and leave these in a drawer…
