Study Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether the Apple AirPods Pro 2 can accurately test hearing and provide helpful amplification, like a traditional hearing aid, in adults with hearing loss. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Can the AirPods Pro 2 hearing test give similar results to a standard hearing test done in a sound booth by an audiologist? * Can the AirPods Pro 2 provide amplification (make sounds louder) in a way that matches what a traditional hearing aid would provide? Researchers will compare the AirPods Pro 2 results to standard hearing tests and hearing aid fittings to see if they perform in a similar way. Participants will: * Take a standard hearing test in a sound booth * Use the Apple Hearing Test with AirPods Pro 2 * Have the loudness of the AirPods and a traditional hearing aid measured and compared using special equipment

Primary Outcome
