Immersive Audio Settings
Immersive audio takes what you’re hearing out of your head and places it in front of you—like you’re always in the sound’s sweet spot. It feels like the audio is coming from outside the headphones, resulting in a more lifelike experience. Immersive audio works on any streaming content from any source, taking your audio to new heights with better sound clarity and richer sound quality.
Using Immersive Audio
To enable one of the two Immersive Audio modes, open the Bose app 
, select your headphones then select Immersive Audio.
The default setting is Off. Select the Still mode if your staying in place. Select the Motion mode if you are moving around your environment.
To hear a demonstration of the different modes, tap on the Try the demo link. The earbud batteries discharge at a higher rate when Immersive Audio is on.
Note: When you make or receive a phone call, immersive audio is temporarily set to "Off."
You can change the Immersive Audio mode by enabling the Modes feature or using a shortcut to cycle through the modes. Immersive Audio and the changing of modes is not functional when paired to a Bose speaker using SimpleSync.
