LISTEN ANYWHERE - Join Auracast broadcasts by QR code, share link, or nearby scan - Control broadcast volume, and quiet your hearing aids' own microphones so you hear only the program - Save favorite broadcasts and rejoin them with one tap or with Siri - Apple Watch companion: volume and mute from your wrist WHO IT IS FOR - Hearing aid wearers: most hearing aids sold since 2024 have LE Audio inside; ask your audiologist about Auracast - Earbud listeners: Auracast-capable LE Audio earbuds join the same way - AirPods owners: AirPods cannot receive Auracast broadcasts yet, but live captions (including an AirPods-mic mode) and Channels work great today NO HARDWARE YET? TRY THE DEMO A built-in demo simulates the whole join flow, so you can see exactly how it works before you ever meet a broadcast. LIVE CAPTIONS, ON DEVICE Turn speech around you into captions, generated entirely on your iPhone. Nothing you hear is sent to a server.
