Adaptive Audio is only available with AirPods Pro 2. You’ll need the iOS 17 developer beta on your iPhone along with the AirPods beta installed. With this being a developer beta, install it at your own risk.
- After installing the AirPods beta, look for a splash screen asking if you’d like to turn on Adaptive Audio when using your AirPods Pro 2
- If you don’t see that, you can manually turn the feature on
- Open Control Center on your iPhone (pull down from the top-right corner) and long press on the volume/AirPods slider (make sure your AirPods are connected)
- Tap the Noise Control button
- Choose Adaptive
- Now your AirPods Pro 2 will now automatically move between noise cancellation and transparency
- You can also customize your AirPods Pro 2 controls
- With your AirPods connected, open the Settings app on your iPhone > tap your AirPods at the top
- Under Press and Hold AirPods > tap Left or Right (or whichever one says Noise Control)
- The default appears to have AirPods Pro stem presses switch between Adaptive Audio and noise cancellation
- You can add transparency and off to the mix of controls that long presses on your AirPods stem(s) will cycle through
- You can turn off Conversation Awareness while leaving Adaptive Audio turned on
- Alternatively, in iOS Settings > AirPods > swipe down and under Audio, tap Conversation Awareness, Personalized Volume, or Loud Sound Reduction to turn any of them off
