So, I got my EarPods to work to do this. So, I know what the answer is going to be when I ask the following question, but does it work only if you have both EarPods inserted or can you use just one to make it work. I know people will be saying try it out, but if it doesn't work for me it doesn't mean that mine is working properly when someone else says they got it to work using only with one EarPod. So, I am seeking some feedback from those who have it enabled. Thank you so much.

I am actually wondering how you made the nodding to work o:
I thought this was an update that was coming later?

I thought the same, but I had seen somewhere someone had it working with their AirPods Pro 2. So, first thing I made sure of is that all devices were up to date with the latest Beta update. Once this was accomplished, I remember reading that "Developer" needed to be added to the iPhone to make this happen, and I did't have it. I then seen someone recommending an app called iCareFone and so I downloaded it to my MacBook Air. I then connected my iPhone to my MacBookAir, and I was able to get Developer to be added to my iPhone 14 Pro. Once the Developer was added I was able to update my AirPods Pro2 to the latest firmware, and that is when I had seen the option to answer calls by nodding my head. Works great when I am out on the bike trails, it not only gives me the option to answer or hang up a call but announces who it is.
