 Now that iOS 18.1 is available to the masses, Apple's new hearing aid feature is ready for use. The tool is one of three hearing health items the company announced alongside the iPhone 16 in September. Another one of those, the "clinically-validated" hearing test, is an essential part of being able to use the AirPods Pro 2 as a hearing aid. With an up-to-date iPhone and those earbuds, you can employ hearing assistance tools without visiting a doctor or buying off-putting hearing aids. Simply take a five-minute test, and if the software determines you have mild to moderate hearing loss, you can immediately enable Apple's FDA-approved hearing aid. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to use it.

Panic slipped some major news into its fall Playdate Update: Season Two is happening, and we'll see it next year. Can I get a "hell yeah!"? It's been over two years since Season One dropped, and in the time since, it's remained unclear whether another would ever follow. But in today's livestream, Panic's Video & Podcast host Christa Mrgan confirmed that Season Two is a go, and it's "happening next year." Consolation for killing the Stereo Dock, perhaps?
There are a lot of details we still don't know about Season Two, like how much it'll cost (Season One was included with the purchase of a Playdate), but a PR person for Panic confirmed to Engadget that Playdate owners will have to buy it from the Catalog. Information on pricing and the exact number of games will be released in 2025. The first season brought two games per week over the course of 12 weeks, amounting to 24 games in all. According to Mrgan, Season Two so far includes "about a dozen games." There's also apparently another "really cool surprise thing" that we aren't allowed to know the details about just yet, and my curiosity is definitely piqued.
In addition to the Season Two announcement, the fall update also highlighted some upcoming Catalog games to look out for in the coming weeks and into 2025: Owl
