Here are three exciting new AirPod features to expect, according to 9to5Mac:
A new head gesture that will end a Conversation Awareness volume adjustment, which, as of now, requires you to press and hold the AirPod stem.
A new camera control feature, where tapping an AirPod stem will take a picture. This might be way easier than using the iPhone's timer feature.
A sleep detection system that'll auto-pause when someone falls asleep while using their AirPods.
Now, keep in mind that the report from 9to5Mac relies on unnamed sources within Apple, so it is not guaranteed that we will get all these features at WWDC. That's not to say the report isn't true; just that Apple can always change course.
We'll just have to wait until Monday's WWDC to see what, exactly, happens for AirPods.
