Like other forms of communication, audio can sometimes require a level of privacy. While music may be freely playable on a speaker with few privacy issues, a phone call with a loved one may not need to be broadcast to a room in such a way, and may even require the recipient to move away from other people.
While holding an iPhone to your ear may be more private than using a speaker, and that earphones can be even more private, there’s still the issue of spillover audio. Even if you’re being as careful as possible to be the only person listening to a phone or earphones, there’s a chance that someone else in the same room can still hear what you’re listening to.
It’s a significant enough chance that Apple was granted a patent for a potential solution in 2021. And it’s all significant enough for Apple that the company has continued to pursue the idea — and consequently now been granted a revised version of that same patent.
