Hi Grandpalok,


Re: Can AirPods Pro 2 help me hear better with hearing loss?


Seems a hearing professional would likely give the best advice. We are all Apple users, like yourself, in the community, so no-one here can speak for Apple, or advise on health issues.


Now that your discussion thread is underway ... unless others with first-hand experience in using the new feature reply ... best we can do, is to link you up with the info. available from Apple.


Apple support makes lots of info. about the AirPods Pro 2 hearing features available online (links below)


Seems, with iOS 18.1, new hearing-aid features became available in those countries where authorities similar to the TGA in USA have already given approval.

You can check if your country is listed for the:

  • Hearing Test feature
  • Hearing Aid feature
  • Hearing Protection feature (This feature is only available in USA and Canada)

See: AirPods Pro 2 - Hearing Health Feature Availability - Apple

if you want to know: There's more "how to" details on the three features.

Note: Seems those with "mild to moderate" hearing loss tests will be eligible to use the new features.

We can not know for sure whether any individual's hearing experience will be improved or not.


Here's Apple's website about AirPods Pro 2 Hearing Health:

All the best :-)
