When AirPods update, there is always a small problem. Indeed,the manufacturer never specifies what the new versions of the software that accompanies these little earbuds contain. Therefore, you always have to wait for testers to discover additional features (which are rather rare) or for developers to dissect the program's source code to find out more.

If an update arrives at the same time, it would therefore be the ideal opportunity to introduce this little additional detail of iOS 16.
What could change
