How to use Audio Sharing with the AirPods Max? When it comes to controlling volume, you can even switch the way the Digital Crown is used, and rotate it front to back or back to front, depending on what feels the most natural. Press and hold the Digital Crown to summon Siri.

Two presses skip forward, while three skip back. Turn to adjust the volume, press once to play/pause or answer a call. One of the neat features of the Max is how Apple has taken the Digital Crown from the Apple Watch and built it into the AirPods Max as the main controller.
