Future Apple AirPods may soon come with health-related features. As per reports, Apple is working on AirPods that will be able to take the user’s body temperature, serve as a hearing aid for people with hearing disabilities and help them correct their postures. The reports reveal that Apple is checking out possibilities of making the AirPods more useful than just play music. The features are currently being tested and could be launched by the end of next year.
A Wall Street Journal report states that Apple will not restrict health features to Apple Watch only, it is checking out the possibilities of adding health features such as body temperature monitor, hearing aid features and more. The report notes that it is not clear whether Apple “is developing specific new hearing-aid features for AirPods or wants to market the earbuds’ existing hearing-improvement features as hearing aids. AirPods Pro, Apple’s higher-end earbuds, already offer features to improve hearing, including “conversation boost,” launched last week, that increases the volume and clarity of people in front of the wearer.”
