We are really excited to announce that this fall, AirPods Pro will have a clinical-grade over-the-counter hearing aid feature.
We're adding this groundbreaking capability to help more than one billion people living with mild to moderate hearing loss.
To give you insight into your hearing health, we're introducing a clinically validated hearing test with your AirPods Pro and iPhone.
It's a simple five-minute check you can take from the comfort of your own home.
All you need to do is tap the screen when you hear a series of tones at different volumes and frequencies.
After you take a hearing test, your AirPods Pro are transformed into a personalized hearing aid, boosting the specific sounds you need in real time, like parts of speech or elements within your environment.
One in three people are regularly exposed to environmental noise levels that could impact their hearing.
To help our users minimize their exposure, we're adding Hearing Protection to AirPods Pro.
Hearing Protection can help you across a variety of loud environments, whether that's commuting, mowing the lawn, or when you're headed to that next event.
Preserving the entire dynamic range of what you're listening to.
