If you update your Netflix app now you might notice that you already have the feature enabled.
Spatial Audio is what Apple calls its AirPods’ immersive sound feature.
It works by using sensors and directional audio to track where your head is in relation to the device you’re listening to the content on.
It essentially creates an immersive sound experience for the content you’re watching.
This is good when you’re watching a film or TV as you can sense the direction of the sound as if you were in the film or TV series yourself.
To take advantage of Spatial Audio on AirPods when watching TV you’ll need to watch content from a platform which supports it.

You can control spatial audio from your Apple device’s control centre.

You can also turn it off here to see the different between sound.
