Amazon announced on Wednesday new accessibility features for Fire TV, including a notable “Dual Audio” capability for the newly launched Fire TV Omni Mini-LED Series, which was unveiled in November. The new feature allows one user to listen through a hearing aid while others in the same room can enjoy audio through the TV’s built-in speakers. Additional updates include efforts to make packaging more accessible and expand hearing aid support.
Dual Audio is a significant addition for hard-of-hearing users, allowing them to share a more communal viewing experience by listening to a TV show or movie simultaneously with friends and family. While several existing Fire TV devices already have Audio Streaming for Hearing Aids (ASHA) support, this is the first model that can play audio in two different outputs. Currently, this feature is exclusive to the Fire TV Omni Mini-LED TV series and will be launching soon.
The new QR codes are already available in an increasing number of Amazon device packages, including selected Fire TVs, Echo Show models, and various Kindle devices such as the Kindle Paperwhite, Kindle Colorsoft, and Kindle Scribe.
