CTOnews.com August 1, iOS 17 brings many improvements to AirPods users, especially for second-generation AirPods Pro users. One of the new features is conversation awareness (Conversation Awareness), which detects when users are talking to others, automatically lowers the volume and switches to transparent mode. Transparent mode allows users to hear the sounds of their surroundings without being completely isolated from the outside world. Now, Apple wants to know why some users turned off this feature in the iOS 17 beta.

Conversation awareness is a new feature of the second generation of AirPods Pro, which requires users to install beta firmware and run iOS 17 beta. Apple said that as long as users "start talking, the conversation perception will lower the volume and enhance the sound in front of the user, while reducing the background noise."

But in the past few days, Apple has sent feedback surveys to users who choose to turn off conversation awareness. In the survey, users can answer questions directly from iPhone. Apple asked users who installed the AirPods beta firmware to evaluate the overall experience of using the new feature.

CTOnews.com notes that Apple wants to know if there are any serious problems when conversation awareness triggers or AirPods returns to its previous state (such as detecting a delay in speech). Another question is to find out whether users prefer to completely pause audio content when the feature is activated, rather than just lowering the volume. The options are:

No problem

Expect the music to pause rather than lower the volume.

Expect audio content to be paused rather than volume lowered

Other

In the last question in the survey, Apple asked which improvements would allow users to turn on the feature again. The options are:

Not applicable (I have enabled this feature)

Allow conversation perception to be activated when someone is talking to me

Dialogue perception is not allowed to be activated when I sing or talk to myself.

Pause music when conversation awareness is activated

Other

Apple actively solicited feedback from users who tried the AirPods beta firmware, indicating that it is still making minor adjustments to the public release of the new feature, which is expected to be officially launched this fall.
