ChatGPT made up a product feature out of thin air, so this company created it

Im Never Splitting AirPods With My Wife Again Thanks to This iPhone Trick

When my wife and I travel, we usually download some shows to watch on our flight. But we always have to split a set of AirPods when we watch these shows so we each have one earbud.

I love Roku for keeping its ads unobtrusive - which is why this Amazon deal worries me
