  Why is a feature like that geofenced in the first place?

    Apparently due to Indian regulations. I guess it cannot legally call itself a “hearing aid” without going through some kind of certification process.

      Yeah the article mentioned that at some point. It still seems a bit petty to geofence it, instead of just calling it something else

  You can still use the hearing test feature by browsing this link on your Apple device:
