In today’s Tech Bytes, there’s a new way to make money on Facebook. The social media platform has launched content monetization, a program where users can earn cash through views on their Facebook stories. Facebook’s parent company, Meta, says creators who aren’t in the program can apply through its website.
Additionally, your AirPods may soon offer live translation. Apple is reportedly planning to add the feature later this year. According to Bloomberg, AirPods will automatically detect and convert any spoken words that are not in your native language. It’s similar to the translation tool on Google’s Pixel Buds.
Finally, Android users will soon have access to new Bluetooth technology that links hearing aids directly to public audio broadcasts. Auracast provides customized live audio streams from places like noisy train stations or even concerts to those with compatible hearing aids.
