- Apple has announced three new health features for the AirPods Pro 2.
- The new features aim to help users prevent hearing loss, test their hearing, and enhance their listening experience.
- The features will arrive with a software update this fall.
Although Apple did not unveil new AirPods Pro models in today’s event, the company has announced a couple of new health features that will soon be available on the AirPods Pro 2. With these features, Apple aims to protect users’ hearing, help them identify an undiagnosed hearing disorder, and enhance the listening experience for those with hearing loss.
The Hearing Protection feature on the AirPods Pro 2 will be enabled by default. It will use machine learning to automatically adjust loud sounds to prevent damage, adding to the passive noise isolation already offered by the silicone ear tips.
