Hearing Remote Reviews

App spins and spins and can’t find hearing aid. All appropriate steps taken. Failed. Useless app

App very difficult to pair to hearing aids, when they do connect they don’t stay connected , when they are connected most of the functions don’t work ie,volume control equalizer etc. waste of time messing with it

My instructions to close the adaptive Bluetooth were supposed to fix that, but no go. I’m gave that button seems to turn itself back on. Ive deleted HearingRemote are re-downloaded it several times it keeps telling me I cannot access the adjustments because Bluetooth isn’t working- when in fact it is: aids are pairs to my phone!

Controls column only. No instructions on how to link to tv. No way to adjust bass and treble.

Worst app I’ve ever used. I downloaded this because my grandfather needed to be able to control his hearing aid volume with something he could see instead of the buttons on his hearing aids. It was easy to connect to Bluetooth, but that’s not rocket science.

The issue comes in when HearingRemote decides to change the single slider with a double slider FOR NO REASON. It was confusing for him and his wife as well as being difficult to resolve. It gives you the option to change it back to one slider or change it to two, that’s true. The issue comes in when HearingRemote arbitrarily decides to change to a double slider when the selection mode is not activated. It doesn’t give a reason as to why it changes it and it doesn’t seem to have a pattern.

I would not recommend HearingRemote to anyone who has issues with technology. I’ve had an iPhone for 10 years and I struggled with figuring out how to problem solve HearingRemote.

One redeeming feature: it was completely free. We had to purchase a $285 hearing aid remote from the dealer just to be able to function. Seriously, whoever programmed this needs to rethink the structure. Hope y’all have better luck than we did.

Hearing aids do not stay paired with HearingRemote

Sonova AG wrote HearingRemote and the sister app for Unitron. My hearing aids are made by Unitron, but are sold under the Audicus brand. Same hearing aids, yet the Hearing Remote app is V 3.02 and hasn’t been updated in over 5 months. The Unitron app is V 3.03 and was updated 2 months ago. No idea what the enhancements were, but it hardly seems right does it?

And to boot, it’s buggy. Under “Programs” there is an entry for “Bluetooth Streaming” which allows you to adjust for “Media” or “Surroundings.” It basically seems to be a bass and treble adjustment – when you can access it. If you visit “My hearing aids > My programs” it’s the last entry in the list. I’ll be darned if I know how I ever got to it 3 or 4 times, but I did. I’ve spent the better part of an afternoon trying to replicate the efforts that took me to it those few times.

So come on Sonova AG - don’t treat Audicus like a red-headed stepchild. Keep the apps in sync and fix the bugs. And improve it.

Hard to pair app with hearing aids
Even though hearing aids are connected to Bluetooth keep receiving messages not connected
Poorly designed

App only allows for adjusting volume but advertises ability to further adjust treble, bass, etc of settings and programs.

Control volume and programs on Embrace Hearing aids

So far so good. Disagree with review that it’s useless. Will update.

I have not had any difficulties with HearingRemote. Works great for me. It is very easy to use.

HearingRemote is better than other similar apps that I have used
