Netflix says it is not currently testing spatial audio support for the AirPods Pro and AirPods Max, putting to rest a previous report that claimed support would roll out in the spring.
In a statement to MacRumors, a Netflix spokesperson said it is not currently testing support for spatial audio and has no plans to release it to the public at this time. Instead, Netflix says it was testing multi-channel support for built-in speakers, as part of its mission to “improve” its service and assess “new experiences” for users.
Netflix and AirPods users have been on the prowl, waiting for the streaming giant to embrace the feature. The pressure on Netflix is not eased given that a number of its bigger competitors such as Disney Plus, HBO Max and, of course, Apple TV +, all already include spatial audio support.
Spatial Audio brings three-dimensional sound to your “AirPods Pro” and “AirPods Max”. Your iOS device will compare its own gyroscope and accelerometer data to data from your “AirPods,” to ensure that your sound field stays anchored to the device even if you move your head.
