You can turn it off, it's just not obvious.

Accessibility > audio/visual > headphone notification

Took me so f-cking long to find this answer after searching online because it's not where you'd expect it to be

Thank you! Been trying to figure this out for awhile! Obviously the Bluetooth volume is going to be all the way up when in the car. But the stereo can have it down low to the point it’s super quiet, and I’ll still get this notification. I never listen to my headphones that high anyways, and never get this notification. But in the car it’s constant, and super annoying.

In the Bluetooth device settings for your car, you can set the device type to "Car stereo" and it will never throw you a notification even if they're globally available. That was one of the first updates they released when the headphone notifications were first introduced and the backlash from countless users with this exact issue arose.

Oh! I had no idea! Thank you. I will look at that. I turned it off anyways in the settings above. So doesn’t hurt to turn that on. lol.

I find that Apple puts some of the settings in weird places.

A lot of them (like promotion or the headphone messages) are found accessibility when they should be in display settings or the airpod settings

That's weird, I would have presumed you'd have been given the right to destroy your eardrums. Rightfully so.

Americans have a god-given right to destroy their hearing with the deafening sounds of repeated gunfire.
