Spatial audio with AVAudioEngine
Adjust the AVAudioEnvironmentNode orientation to match someone’s head pose via compatible AirPods by setting the new isListenerHeadTrackingEnabled property to
true. The system requires your app to have the com.apple.developer.coremotion.head-pose entitlement to observe this property.Tailor AVAudioEnvironmentNode output according to a person’s personalized spatial audio profile that they configure in Settings by adding the com.apple.developer.spatial-audio.profile-access entitlement to your app.
Instruct AVAudioEnvironmentNode to ignore the new system spatial audio toggle in Control Center by adding the AVGameBypassSystemSpatialAudio key to your app’s
Info.plist.
