Came across this feature today, and if you own AirPods it’s well worth checking out.

Basically live listen can enhance the sound the iPhone pics up via its mic. It’s intended use is to place it by a tv for example and vi the AirPods you can hear it more clearly.

However there are lots of other fun applications for it such as leaving an iPhone in a room and being able to listen in on the conversations from another place (within Bluetooth range of the AirPods). Not that I condone that type of behaviour of course

Anyone else tried it?
