With today’s technology, it makes sense that today’s hearing aids are directly compatible with smartphones.

Some types of Bluetooth can allow hearing aids to connect directly to smartphones. If your smartphone and hearing aids are both equipped with this technology, you can control your hearing aids through an app. This allows you to create personal programs and adjust the volume of your hearing aids as needed.

Programs that meet your needs!

Using a smartphone app, you can personalize or create programs for your favourite locations: a corner café, a conference room, a restaurant... If you create a program for each location, your hearing aids will be able to adjust automatically when you return.

When you’re in the car, the app detects your movements and selects a program that allows you to hear comfortably while driving. Once you exit the car, the hearing aids will return to their normal settings.

If you use an iPhone, you can even make phone calls and listen to music directly in your hearing aids. This is also possible on Android devices, although an additional accessory is needed.

Thanks to this feature, you can adjust the volume of your music or movies any way you want by creating a specific program. The app will automatically detect what you’re doing and choose the right program.

By combining smartphones, apps and smart hearing aids, you can create a listening experience that perfectly meets your needs!
