Better Control Over What You Hear
Continuing with the health features, Apple created a new tool to protect your hearing even more.
Based on the World Health Organization’s guidelines, Apple implemented a hearing feature that controls the amount of safe listening you’ve done throughout the week.
A person can be exposed to 80 decibels for 40 hours a week. If your Apple Watch determines you’ve exceeded this time, it will give you a notification telling you that it has turned down the volume for the rest of the week.
Besides this, you can also track how long have you been exposed to high decibel levels each week by using the Health app. And if you want, you’ll also be able to change the maximum volume level for your headphones.
