Apple has not released Airpod Pro 3s yet. You likely meant to say AirPod Pro 2s. If so, here is what you need to know:


In order to use the hearing test and hearing aid function, three things must be true. 

  1. Your iPhone must be updated to 18.1. Here are instructions to update. Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
  2. Your AirPd Pros 2 must be updated to their latest firmware, which 7B19. Here are instructions to update. About firmware updates for AirPods - Apple Support
  3. You Apple Account must be registered in a country that supports the hearing aid feature. Check your country here.  AirPods Pro 2 - Hearing Health Feature Availability - Apple


Once these three requirements are satisfied, place the AirPod Pro 2s in your ears. Go to Settings > your AirPods. Tap Hearing Assistance. If you haven't taken the Hearing Test, tap Take a Hearing Test.
