Ratings and Reviews
App is good but settings are not enough
Dear Oticon Company,
I like the app, but settings are poor. Please let me, as an user, be able to disable the horribly annoying song when turning on my hearing aids. I would also want to be able to chose the default profile permanently (general, my music, comfort, etc). I would also prefer not to hear the beeping sound when switching profiles. I understand that this is good for the elderly, but as a young person, I would really enjoy more settings and personalization.
Thank you.
Developer Response ,
Dear wiktorkramer, thank you for your feedback. All your requests can be handled by your hearing care professional, luckily. The audiologist can turn of the jingle played when turning on the hearing aids and the beeps via the fitting software and although it is not possible to alter the order of the programs, you can request to change the settings of the different programs so that the first is fitted with your favorite program's fitting. I hope it helps! I will pass on to the relevant team your wish for more personalization. Kind Regards, Oticon
Recent update
Recent update made the app worse unfortunately. Now it has problems with connecting to my More 2 hearing aids. Volume control in the shows up much later then before.
Luckily we have some progress too: there’s new app on Apple Watch, but still no complication. Apple Watch app seem to work randomly, because of mentioned problems with main app on iPhone.
Developer Response ,
Dear user, thank you for your feedback. Please, be aware that the complications appear only on some of the different interfaces offered by Apple on the Apple Watch. We will report the slow-reconnections to the relevant teams. Kind Regards, Oticon
