Kids swap AirPods and use text-to-speech to "talk" in class

What you need to know


A TikTok video is showing us all how to talk without being caught.
They're using AirPods and text-to-speech to communicate.
Now I feel old and dumb.


Hopefully they're giving them a good clean before swapping them.

Our very own Rene Ritchie just shared a TikTok video in the iMore Slack channel and now I feel both old and decidedly dumb at the same time. See, it turns out enterprising kids are sharing AirPods and then using text-to-speech to allow them to "talk" without being caught.

The obvious use case here is keeping up with your crew during class. Because nobody pays attention when their teacher is talking, right? That's reserved for squares like me!
