The transparency mode with accommodations are effectively broken since iOS 18 and 18.0.1.
The transparency with amplification, environment noise canceling and speech amplification do not work at all. I have used custom audiogram, and reset both headphones and settings, but it is still the same.
Is there a trick I can make this work?
AirPods Pro (2nd generation)
Have you selected from and performed the reset options shown here? I believe there may be some conflicts between the programming options before iOS 18 and those existing under iOS 18 that are getting in the way. My current issue under 18.0.1 is not being able to complete the creation of a custom audiogram. The problem is that I'm repeatedly prompted to connect compatible headphones, but I don't have any headphones to connect that are more compatible than APP2.
I’m still trying options for configuring transparency while waiting for Apple to provide the announced hearing test capabilities. I made progress by using the disconnect option in Bluetooth settings on my Mac, which was also configured to connect automatically to the AirPods Pro 2. Have you tried ensuring that the iPhone is the only device paired with the AirPods Pro 2 while adjusting options?
I tried all sorts of options. The headphones switching are not an issue. - When i set up the APP2, they work a bit and later on they stop and revert to just noise canceling. They also seems to switch modes intermittently.
I will now try to delete custom audiogram options, and reset everything again, but I have little hope it will actually work.
Both iOS 18 and Sequoia are load of cr*p currently. They both have loads of issues and I can't really understand why they decided to release these.
I have still not managed to fix this. The transparency mode does not work at all. When I switch to it, it briefly works, and then crashes back to noise canceling.
Adaptive noise control also doesn't work, or work flaky.
I am also noticing headphone dropouts and other issues.
The headphone accommodations do not work in any case, with custom audiogram or default Apple boosts.
I am really annoyed by this, and I am certain Apple knows about this issue and chooses not to fix it. I have no problems with that, but I would very much like to be able to revert to older OS that actually worked.
i was using Transparency mode with audiogram applied, this allowed me to use AirPods for both content and as hearing aids, don't have to change in-ear device when someone talks to me. now it's broken after updating to 18.1. big dealbreaker issue for me.
