AirPods New Features in iOS 16! Personalized Spatial Audio!

**iOS 16 Features**

IOS 16 is installed on my iPhone, and I'm excited to dive into its new features. The first change I want to explore is the new "Quick Jump" to AirPods settings. As I open the Settings app, I can see that my AirPods Pro are connected and easily accessible.

**Quick Jump to AirPods Settings**

I've been waiting for a more intuitive way to access my AirPods settings, and this feature delivers. Previously, I had to navigate through the Bluetooth menu, which was always frustrating because it only showed the actual settings when my headphones were connected. With this new "Quick Jump" feature, I can now easily access all of my AirPods settings from within the Settings app. It's almost like having an entire app dedicated to my AirPods!

**Personalized Spatial Audio**

Another exciting new feature in iOS 16 is personalized spatial audio. As a side note, if you're interested in experiencing faster load times on Safari or downloading Magic Lasso, an ad blocker designed for your iPhone, iPad, and Mac, I'd like to give a shoutout to Magic Lasso. This efficient, high-performance, and free ad blocker has over 4,000 five-star reviews and blocks all intrusive ads, trackers, and annoyances, letting you experience a faster, cleaner, and more secure web browsing experience.

**Personalized Spatial Audio Setup**

To take advantage of personalized spatial audio, I'll put my AirPods back in my ears. As I open the Settings app again, I can see that my AirPods are connected and easily accessible. Tap on "AirPods" to get into their settings and customizations. The new feature is called "Personalized Spatial Audio," which allows me to customize the spatial audio effect based on how I perceive things.

**Scanning My Face**

To set up personalized spatial audio, I need to scan my face using my iPhone's TrueDepth camera system. I'll use my front-facing camera to scan my face quickly and easily capture my ear shape. The app will adjust my movements based on little noises I make, ensuring that the sound is accurate.

**Setting Up Personalized Spatial Audio**

Once I've scanned both of my ears, I can continue with the setup process. I'll tap "Continue" twice, and the personalized spatial audio feature will be activated. Now, I have completely customized my spatial audio settings, and I can enjoy a more immersive listening experience with my AirPods Pro.

**Testing Personalized Spatial Audio**

To test the new feature, I'll play some music on Apple Music using the "Spatial Audio" playlist. As I listen to George Michael's music, I can hear that the sound is indeed improved. While it's hard to tell if there's a significant difference without comparing it to my previous experience, it does sound more immersive and engaging.

**Conclusion**

IOS 16 brings several exciting new features, including personalized spatial audio, which allows users to customize the spatial audio effect based on how they perceive things. This feature is sure to enhance the overall listening experience with AirPods Pro. With iOS 16, Apple continues to innovate and improve its operating system, providing users with a more seamless and enjoyable experience.

**Release Date**

IOS 16 will be released later this year, in the fall of 2022, as a free update for many iPhone users. However, things could change by the time the final release is made available.
