Apple has introduced exciting new features for AirPods 4, AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), and AirPods Pro 2 that take audio recording and camera control to the next level.

Transform Your Content Creation

Now, creators can capture studio-quality vocals wherever they go. With the simple press of the AirPods stem, you can start or stop video recordings remotely, making it easier than ever to record content hands-free. Thanks to Voice Isolation, calls sound clearer with improved voice quality, so conversations feel more natural.

Whether you’re an interviewer, podcaster, singer, or any type of content creator, studio-quality audio recording allows you to capture your voice with impressive clarity even in noisy places. Equipped with the powerful H2 chip, beamforming microphones, and smart audio processing, AirPods enhance the sound of your calls on iPhone, FaceTime, and apps that support CallKit. These improvements work seamlessly across iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and support popular apps like Camera, Voice Memos, Messages dictation, video conferencing apps such as Webex, and other compatible camera apps.

Capturing photos and videos just got easier too. When using the Camera app or supported third-party apps on your iPhone or iPad, press and hold the AirPods stem to snap a photo or begin recording a video. Press and hold again to stop the recording. This is perfect for those who want to record themselves singing or dancing, syncing with their favorite soundtrack smoothly.

Get a Sneak Peek This Fall

All these fantastic features are available for testing right now through the Apple Developer Program at developer.apple.com. A public beta will follow next month through the Apple Beta Software Program at beta.apple.com. The full update will arrive this fall as a free firmware upgrade with iOS 26, iPadOS 26 and macOS Tahoe 26.
