Yes — PillowPod fits all 3 generations of AirPods Max, including the 2024 USB-C model. The headband mesh is identical across generations.
No permanent changes — the inserts pin into the mesh and remove cleanly anytime. Take care when inserting/removing the plastic parts, as they could scratch the headband if forced.
Under 30 seconds. No tools, no adhesive, no disassembly. Pinch the rubber sides and mesh lining, click the insert into place above the mesh, done.
Both are included. The Spine (ladder-style) gives the slickest, most factory look. The Flat insert is more breathable and slightly easier to install. Try both — most owners keep the Spine in.
