AirPods Pro (2nd generation)
Despite vast portions of their revenues coming from Europe and Asia, Apple can still slip into communications that really only address the USA. The list on the Apple link cited in this discussion is definitive and the UK is not cited for any of the Hearing Features.
I also am very keen to try it and bought AirPods Pros in anticipation. In the UK 'hearing aids' are classed as level IIA medical device and are regulated by the MHRA, though it seems to me the availability, price point and sophistication of the OTC devices from Apple, Bose and several others has leapfrogged what is available on the NHS or expensive private providers and they will not be able to resist this wave (as in the U.S.)
Quite good article here< https://www.ignitec.com/insights/hearing-aids-as-medical-devices-and-their-new-declassification-opportunities/>
Understand. Hopefully it should be a formality as Samsung has the feature on their phones and buds!
Right. I missed that.
Hooray. Let’s hope that’s right!
Hearing Health Feature Availability
Some Hearing Health features are not currently available in every region. Due to regulatory restrictions, Apple is unable to release the Hearing Aid feature in the UK at this time.
(as per 06/12/2024. Just another example of sclerotic Great British regulatory BS
It's now active with ios 18.2. I'm going to wait until I'm over this cold before i try it though :(
Test available now but the Hearing Aid is still not available.
