I saw in Apple's YouTube video introducing the hearing aid feature in AirPods Pro 2 at 1:34 mark that "Feature is only available in the U.S and Canada". Which feature? Hearing test? Hearing protection? Or the whole thing of AirPods Pro 2 doubling as a hearing aid? I find this extremely confusing and would love some explanation from the community. Thanks in advance!
Not in Canada. Over the counter hearing aids are only a legal thing in the U.S.
Interesting, thanks for noting that. I wouldn’t have guessed it was unique in the US. I woulda guessed the US was catching up.
They’re obscenely priced too. If AirPods can do even half as good as dedicated ones they’ll be an amazing tool for people with poor hearing.
My wife’s dad is too proud to buy hearing aids but he might be convinced to use AirPods because they’re just headphones like everyone wears.
