New AirPods tricks could finally match (and beat) Android earbuds

Aamir Siddiqui / Android Authority TL;DR AirPods are set to receive several new features that could be announced at WWDC on Monday. These features include an auto-pausing sleep detection feature and camera controls. WWDC, where Apple will announce its upcoming software and platform plans, is just a few days away. While iOS and the company's AI-driven initiatives will likely take center stage, several smaller announcements could greatly please AirPods owners and bring the earbuds up to par with Android products. According to 9to5Mac, AirPods users may soon gain camera controls, enabling them to operate the camera on their iPhones and iPads. This feature reportedly functions similarly to older EarBuds, which used the earphone stem as a camera control stick. The extent of control is still unclear. While functionality akin to the iPhone 16's Camera Control button would be ideal, especially for forthcoming AirPods models, it seems the feature might only trigger the shutter at this point. This is not a new concept. Companies like OnePlus and OPPO have already introduced shutter support for their earbuds and phones, giving these Android devices an advantage. However, this development means Apple is now on par with these leading earbud manufacturers. Where AirPods might surpass their competitors is with sleep detection. This feature could allow AirPods to detect when a user falls asleep while listening to music or a podcast and automatically pause the media. This would be particularly beneficial for users who use their earbuds as a sleep aid. Other potential features for AirPods include additional head gestures to answer calls or dismiss notifications by nodding, streamlined pairing for AirPods connected to shared iPads, and a studio microphone mode utilizing Apple's Audio Mix feature. We'll undoubtedly learn more at WWDC 2025, which begins on June 9. Got a tip? Talk to us! Email our staff at Email our staff at news@ .

WWDC 2025: Tune In to Watch Apple's Upcoming Software Event and Big iOS 19 Reveal

Apple is set to hold its annual summer software event, WWDC, next week at its Apple Park HQ in Cupertino, California. CNET will be there to bring you all the news as it happens, including our first impressions of iOS 19. And you can watch the event online from anywhere in the world. Apple has already revealed the lineup for its developer conference, which is scheduled to take place from June 9 to June 13, with a mix of online and in-person sessions. The company has scheduled a special event for the first day, from which it will stream its keynote and Platforms State of the Union Address. This is the point in the year when Apple traditionally unveils major software updates, including the latest versions of iOS, iPadOS and WatchOS, for the iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, respectively. It's exciting whether or not you're planning to invest in a new Apple product this year, as the new software will also roll out to most of the company's most recent devices, breathing new life into your iPhone for another year or so. As always, iOS 19 likely won't arrive until later in the year (probably after the annual September iPhone event), but WWDC will let us know what to expect, as well as potentially giving us insight into new Apple Intelligence tools. In the meantime, check out our iOS 19 wish list of features that CNET staff hope will be coming with this next big software update. We should also note that it might not even be called iOS 19 -- one rumor suggests Apple is changing its numbering system and this iteration will be called iOS 26. Better tune in to see if the rumor is true. How to watch WWDC The June 9 keynote is scheduled to take place at 10 a.m. PT and will detail "groundbreaking updates coming to Apple platforms," according to a press release. During the keynote, we expect to see the company announce its plans for iOS 19 and other software updates across iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and Apple TV. The platforms state of the union will take place on the same day at 1 p.m. PT, offering "a deeper dive into the new tools MacOS, TVOS, VisionOS and WatchOS." You can watch both events online via the Apple TV app and the Apple YouTube channel. What is WWDC? WWDC is a conference for the developers who create the apps we use across our Apple devices, from our iPhones to our MacBooks, to learn about new tools and features they can take advantage of that year. However, the event also garners significant attention from beyond the developer community, since it tells us all we need to know about what to expect from the next generation of software updates that will come to our devices. The online event is free to attend for all developers, and anyone who is curious can tune into Apple's keynote. But those who want to attend the June 9 event at Apple Park in person need to apply online. In the days following, students and developers will attend sessions where they can engage more deeply with the changes to Apple's platforms, which will allow them to ensure their apps are fully compatible with and that they take advantage of those changes. "We're excited to mark another incredible year of WWDC with our global developer community," said Susan Prescott, Apple's vice president of worldwide developer relations. "We can't wait to share the latest tools and technologies that will empower developers and help them continue to innovate." What to expect at WWDC 2025 If rumors are to be believed, Apple's operating systems are set for a dramatic design overhaul this year. According to Bloomberg, iOS 19, iPadOS 19 and MacOS 16 will all feature new icons and menus, which will also change how our devices are controlled and navigated. The aim is reportedly to create a more cohesive style across platforms that will be reminiscent of VisionOS, the operating system designed for the company's mixed-reality headset. But that's not all -- Apple will likely use WWDC to outline the progress it's made in the field of AI. "I'm looking forward to seeing more details about Apple Intelligence and the new features that will become available," said Francisco Jeronimo, VP of devices at IDC. "This is critical for Apple, as Google Gemini and the Android vendors have taken significant steps forward with their AI offerings." Last year at WWDC 2024, Apple announced iOS 18 and Apple Intelligence -- as well as updates to Siri that have yet to materialize. It's highly unlikely we'll see Apple unveil any hardware at this event, although rumors are heating up about next-generation AirTags and a possible iPhone 17 Air. If these are true, they're more likely to come later in the year.

You Have Less Than a Month Left to Join Apple's Big Privacy Settlement: Here's What to Do

Apple is now accepting claims for its major Siri privacy settlement and you could get a piece of the $95 million payout. Viva Tung/CNET Accidentally turning on Siri is probably one of the more annoying parts of owning Apple products -- at least, if you're me it is -- but you know what might definitely make up for that? Getting paid for it. You'll have to get a move on though, because there's less than a month left until until the deadline. Years after it was initially sued for allegedly having voice assistant Siri listen in on conversations, Apple at the start of 2025 chose to settle the class-action suit to the tune of $95 million. Now, some of that money could be yours as a claims website has been launched. Here's everything you'll need to know. The settlement period covers a full decade and given the ubiquity of Apple products, there's a good chance you'll be eligible for a piece of the payout. If you meet the eligibility standards, you can claim a payment for up to five Siri-enabled devices, with a cap on how much you can receive per device. We'll get into the specific amount a little bit later. The impact of this settlement has the potential to be wide-ranging, given the reach of Apple's product ecosystem. According to a Business of Apps report from November, citing company and market research data, there were roughly 155 million active iPhones in the US as of 2024, a number that's been steadily increasing since the product's debut. Similarly, active Apple TV streaming boxes in the US have also been increasing year to year, with more than 32 million active in the US as of 2023. To find out if you're eligible for this settlement, read on. For more, find out what's up with the recent delay of T-Mobile data breach settlement checks. Who sued Apple and why? This class action lawsuit, Lopez et al v. Apple Inc., was first brought against Apple in 2019, with plaintiffs alleging that they were routinely recorded by their Apple devices after unintentionally activating the Siri virtual assistant, violating their privacy in the process. They further alleged that these recordings were then sold to advertisers and used to target them with ads online. Specific incidents mentioned in the suit include plaintiffs seeing ads online for brands like Air Jordan and Olive Garden after Apple device users discussed them out loud. In some instances, plaintiffs claimed that their devices began listening to them without them having said anything at all. At least one plaintiff involved in the case was a minor when it was first filed. Though it agreed to the settlement, Apple hasn't admitted any wrongdoing. "Siri has been engineered to protect user privacy from the beginning," Apple said in a statement sent to CNET. "Siri data has never been used to build marketing profiles and it has never been sold to anyone for any purpose. Apple settled this case to avoid additional litigation so we can move forward from concerns about third-party grading that we already addressed in 2019. We use Siri data to improve Siri and we are constantly developing technologies to make Siri even more private." Who is eligible for this class action settlement? The eligibility requirements for this settlement are fairly broad, as it's open to anyone who owned a Siri-enabled Apple device between Sept. 17, 2014, and Dec. 31, 2024. In order to opt in, you'll have to swear under oath that at some point during that period, you accidentally activated Siri on each device you want to get a payment for, and that these activations occurred during a conversation meant to be private. Siri-enabled devices include iPhones, iPads, Apple Watches, MacBooks, iMacs, Apple TV streaming boxes, HomePod speakers and iPod Touches. How can I opt in to this Apple settlement? As of Thursday, May 8, a website has been launched where Apple customers can claim a portion of the settlement, if they believe they qualify. If you're looking to submit a claim, you have until July 2, 2025, to do so. It's not clear at this time when payments will be disbursed to approved claimants but it will surely be sometime after Aug. 1, 2025, when a final approval hearing is scheduled. How much can I get from the class action settlement? Payments per device are to be capped at $20, although depending on how many people opt in to the settlement, claimants could receive less than that. Each individual can only claim payments for up to five devices, meaning the maximum possible payment you could receive from the settlement is $100.
