Apple ’s AirPods Pro 2 can now take a five-minute hearing test right on your iPhone.

iOS 18.1 and new firmware for the Pro 2 are required to access the test.

Apple recommends that people take the test at least once per year, but you can do it as often as you’d like.

The test is only available in the US and Canada and is intended for those 18 and older.

It’s important to know that the hearing aid feature is only meant for those with perceived mild to moderate hearing loss. If your hearing loss is more severe, you’ll likely want to explore other solutions such as prescription hearing aids or over-the-counter products..
