Apple has just rolled out the latest beta version of iOS 17, its operating system for smartphones. As a result, the first testers were able to discover a change that affects the AirPods. This is an audio message played in the earbuds as soon as the functionalityConversation detectionis active, to clarify this phenomenon, which can be surprising the first time.

Conversation detection: it's what ?
With the functionalityConversation detection, Transparency mode takes over. To understand what this sound processing consists of, simply refer to the description given by the developer on its official website:
“Transparency mode lets outside sounds through so you can stay aware of your surroundings. Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency mode work best when your AirPods Pro fit snugly to your ears.”
If you hear this message, it's normal
We have not yet been able to get our hands on the audio message which is broadcast in French during the transition toTransparency modewith theConversation detection. However, according to its equivalent in the beta version of iOS 17 in English, Apple simply explains having lowered the volume by referring by name to the functionality in question. Judge for yourself:
“Just so you know, AirPods lowered the volume due toConversation Awareness”.
The functionalityConversation detectionis only reserved for second-generation AirPods Pro at the moment. The manufacturer has not specified whether its other audio accessories will be entitled to it soon, unlikethe optionMute or unmutewhich we were also able to see recently on its wireless headphones.
Many other music devices are available from Apple, such as the “classic” second generation and third generation AirPods, which are more affordable than the AirPods Pro. And for the home, today it's the HomePod mini andthe large HomePod (second generation)which are references in this area.
