Apple May Add New Hearing Health and Body-Temperature Features to AirPods

General

Apple is reportedly working on several enhancements for its popular AirPods earbuds, with a focus on expanding its wearables business.

The tech giant aims to introduce additional health sensors to AirPods, including the ability to measure body temperature from the ear canal.

The upcoming AirPods Pro model, expected to arrive in the coming months, is rumored to feature USB-C for its wireless charging case instead of Lightning.

In addition, Apple may introduce a hearing test feature that plays different tones and sounds, enabling AirPods to assess a persons hearing capabilities.

This feature is designed to assist users in identifying potential hearing problems, similar to the ECG app on the Apple Watch that monitors for heart conditions.
