AirPods hearing aid
Hearing aid in the headphone class is actually not new. While some brands develop headphones only for the hearing impaired, brands such as Samsung are trying to add this support to their products. Apple is pursuing a similar technology.
According to the information received, the company will offer some support for the hearing impaired in AirPods products. Normally, with Live Listening and Chat Enhancement features, Apple supported the hearing impaired to a certain extent, but there were no features that could completely replace a hearing aid.
However, this is not an instant feature. First of all, such a project needs to be approved by the US Drug Administration. In this regard, it is estimated that Apple can complete the project in a year or two.
