  • Apple’s AirPods Pro 2 will soon function as over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids for adults, following FDA approval.
  • The update will amplify sound for those with mild to moderate hearing loss and create a custom sound profile through the Apple Health app.
  • This marks a major step in integrating health features into consumer tech, likely inspiring similar innovations from competitors like Samsung.

Apple is all set to introduce hearing aid capabilities to the AirPods Pro 2 after receiving an official nod for the software from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The public health and safety body has recognized the Pro AirPods as the first “over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aid software device.”
