Netflix is reportedly testing out spatial audio support for AirPods Pro, AirPods Max

DateSunday, January 17, 2021 at 4:29AM

Netflix might be the next streaming service to support spatial audio. According to a story from iPhoneSoft, Netflix might launch the feature this spring using a "small catalogue." The report sites an unnamed Netflix employee that claims the company started testing out spatial audio in December 2020.

Spatial audio is a feature that utilizes head tracking technology to mimic an immersive surround sound experience on the AirPods Pro and AirPods Max. When it is enabled, it'll sound like audio is coming from around the user with the sound mapped to the device. Spatial audio is already supported by services like Apple TV+, HBO Max, and Disney+.
