Yes, it is a feature that transforms the new AirPods Pro into hearing aids, which provides clinical-grade hearing assistance comparable to your regular retail hearing aids.
To use the feature, users first have to go through a five-minute Hearing Test that’s accessible through their iPhone. The test gives you an easy-to-understand summary of your hearing health, including a measure of hearing loss in each ear and an audiogram securely stored in the Health app.
