Although I’m very happy with my current headphones, I am impressed that the latest Apple AirPods have a ‘hearing aid’ mode. While I don’t need it yet, that kind of functionality could be useful to lots of people who don’t use iPhones.

So it’s great that some developers have reverse-engineered AirPods to be compatible with devices outside of the Apple ecosystem. That includes people, like me, who use Linux and Android. Check out the releases page for downloads.

LibrePods unlocks Apple’s exclusive AirPods features on non-Apple devices. Get access to noise control modes, adaptive transparency, ear detection, hearing aid, customized transparency mode, battery status, and more - all the premium features you paid for but Apple locked to their ecosystem.
