Apple’s next AirPods Pro unlikely to get heart-rate monitoring

Apple is purportedly working on a smart home camera and AirPods with more health care features.

Gurman says he’s told that neither feature is likely to arrive in the 2022 upgrade, though both enhancements have been explored inside the company and could arrive one day
