According to WSJ, Apple also has plans to help people with hearing problems, but that might still revolve around Conversation Boost. In addition, the tech company would look at a way to check whether someone has good physical posture.
Other than that, not many details are known. The features fit in with Apple’s strategy to focus more on devices that can monitor your health.
