Apple’s iOS 18 beta code indicates the company might introduce wireless earbuds featuring a heart rate sensor, enhancing fitness tracking capabilities. This potential development is highlighted in the latest beta release. The official iOS 18 update is set to roll out on September 16 for all compatible devices.
A recent analysis of the iOS 18 beta code has revealed potential clues suggesting that Apple may be working on a new line of wireless earbuds equipped with a heart rate sensor.
According to a report by AppleInsider, Apple’s iOS 18 release candidate contains code suggesting that the company may be working on wireless earbuds with a heart rate sensor. “Wear both earbuds during workouts to track and send your heart rate to Apple Health.
Manage in Bluetooth settings,” the text reads.
Heart rate monitoring is a popular feature in fitness trackers and smartwatches, but it is less common in wireless earbuds. If Apple were to introduce earbuds with a heart rate sensor, it could offer users a convenient and discreet way to track their heart rate during workouts or other activities.
It remains to be seen whether Apple will ultimately decide to release wireless earbuds with a heart rate sensor. However, the discovery in the iOS 18 beta code suggests that this feature is under consideration and could potentially be introduced in the near future.
Meanwhile, Apple has announced the release date for iOS 18 update. After the iPhone launch, the Cupertino-based tech giant announced the release date of its latest mobile operating system — iOS 18. The company has announced that the iOS 18 will be available for all compatible devices starting September 16.
