Oct 21, 2024, 11:59 AM
Apple's AirPods Pro 2 will soon function as hearing aids, thanks to a new software update set to roll out with iOS 18.1 next week. The update includes hearing protection in all AirPods modes, a hearing test, and robust hearing aid features. This development follows the FDA's November 2022 resolution allowing over-the-counter hearing aid purchases in the U.S., leading to a surge in companies developing hearing aid technology. Apple's move is seen as a significant breakthrough for the hearing-impaired, providing an accessible and innovative solution for hearing health.
