HEARING AID APP:PETRALEX 4 EAR Reviews

by Ron Nat

I tried this product and it did not work for me. I cancelled the subscription as soon as I figured out it would not work for me. A month later I got a bill for the subscription that I canceled and I tried contacting Petralex using their website contact. They do not provide a phone number to call. That was last week and I still have not heard back from petralex.

Loud squealing on iPhone X no matter how I adjust the settings. Even tried it on my iPhone 7 and it does the same thing. Used to work fine on my iPhone 7 but whatever they did when updating they ruined it. There is also a delay when using Bluetooth that the developers say they can’t fix but other developers have figured it out and with much cheaper apps. Such a disappointment with such an expensive app. Apple needs to remove this from HEARINGAIDAPP Store until it works on iPhone again.

I tried to set this up to connect to Bluetooth headphones (Trekz Titanium). You must first do a hearing test with plug-in headphones. Then when I try to do the second hearing test with the Bluetooth headphones I see a message saying to turn the volume up to maximum. That message will not go away and the test will not start. So, I have not been able to connect HEARINGAIDAPP to the iPhone.

I have used this hearing app for 2 months. It did work at first and you could customize it to your environment. However, HEARINGAIDAPP kept malfunctioning and turning off. I could turn it back on, but it would no longer work. I spent a few weeks at least every other day deleting and reinstalling HEARINGAIDAPP , which meant I had to take the hearing test yet again. When it started to happen daily, I switched to another app! Hope others have better luck!

Well works good if you have functioning ears. I found the hearing test rather difficult because I lack hearing 100% in one ear and bypassing the test was confusing. Second I use bone conduction ear phones and found no way to match them before the testing. I could not even match AirPods because HEARINGAIDAPP expects earphones being plugged into my phone. Just suggest that HEARINGAIDAPP be updated to include being able to wireless linking to the latest bone conduction ear phones.

When I first installed HEARINGAIDAPP it was wonderful. It was a music player and hearing aid app all together. It was wonderful, I set up the profile and was able to listen to my music with the eq set up for my hearing loss. It was like rediscovering my music collection. I honestly didn’t use the actual hearing aid app because When not using headphones I had my own hearing aids. When listening I just selected the profile for the headphones I was using.

Then everything changed. In one update they separated the music player from the hearing aid app. While the music player worked with the selected profile, if I changed headphones (and yes there are difference) I had to leave the music app and open the hearing aid app to make the change. I don’t think it was intended that but the button I assumed would be for that purpose was grayed out. Not the best but sill usable. Though i would have helped if that upgrade had not wiped out my profiles. Then they did another upgrade. Great, I thought maybe they fixed that problem. Nope, it was worse. Now the music
Player would only play one song at a time. No matter what I did to the settings I could not get
to advance to the next song automatically. I finally deleted it. It was just too much trouble.

Doesn’t work with Bluetooth and that’s almost always my preference making almost impossible to use
I’m currently using a Plantronics Explorer 52. I wear many hats so I’m physically extremely active making in out of the question to wear wires. I can be somewhat certain at the end of a day my Bluetooth will still be with me but just barely. No, I cannot pass a hearing test so that even the type of Bluetooth can significantly affect my ability to do my job. Hearing aids cost 4 times more than my iPhone X and the performance difference would be like comparing a Harrier Jet to a balsa wood toy airplane So aggravating. I’ve purchased roughly $12,000 worth of hearing aids and had hell getting them to last more than 6 months. They just try to make you believe that what you paid $4000 for 6 months later is out of date. No lie, it’s pathetic

HEARINGAIDAPP works wonderfully on my iPad Pro which has new and updated operating system. I sue it for restaurants and theatre.
However, my iPhone Xs has problems with the balance. It is either going if off and on or switching which ear. Since I have hearing loss in only one ear, I have HEARINGAIDAPP set to have all sound go to my left earbud. It’s fine with iPad Pro, but not with IPhone Xs. It is NOT my phone as I recently traded one iPhone Xs for another iPhone Xs. Your app, even with hardwired earbuds, does not work properly with the Xs. Please, Please, Fix. I love HEARINGAIDAPP , but don’t want to lug around my iPad Pro.

So first I’d like to start off by saying that this is a great application and it works wonderfully and I’ve used it with Bluetooth devices almost flawlessly.

Now that we’ve got that out of the way, lets talk about this volume notification… if you decide to turn the volume down while using the application, a very loud voice comes on screaming at you(or at least that’s the best imagery i can give to exemplify the issue) to turn it back up or risk reducing the applications effectiveness. I understand that ideally you would want the volume turned all the way up... however, as a user I would like the option to freely adjust the volume without being harassed…

It’s absolutely intrusive an annoying! Please fix this!

HEARINGAIDAPP now doesn’t respond. Maybe not iOS 13 capable..?

by DemiKaz

My father’s expensive hearing aids were very touchy and often stopped working. He’s has severe hearing loss and wasn’t able to communicate without his aids. I downloaded HEARINGAIDAPP and it saved him from isolation and loneliness. He can hear again. HEARINGAIDAPP is free so you have nothing to lose to try. For people complaining about app, it has to be the individual’s hearing.
Note: we did not try Bluetooth

I connected my iPhone 5s to my Sennheiser 630VB headphones and on December 30th and set up my Dad who has 4% hearing in his right ear and 15% in his left.

He sung HEARINGAIDAPP’s praises that he couldn’t tell any difference between it and his hearing aids which were $2,000 each.

Granted, Sennheisers are neither cheap nor convenient but they’re a lot less than $4,000. I was truly impressed- it was surely a comparison that gives credence to the quality of HEARINGAIDAPP and its design.

Great job on HEARINGAIDAPP!!

After only two weeks of testing Petralex in various settings, I find it outstanding. Let’s me hear the folks at my table for the first time in years. Looking forward to many new adventures using my ‘new’ ears. HalR

Nonetheless, Petralex is an excellent development in the ‘science’ of hearing. I wear my earPods all day long.

I recently went to my ENT for a full hearing test. About a month later, I then used HEARINGAIDAPP to test my hearing. The results were identical, now I use this application to hear better.

by E G.\SaneerAmli Masoud Na

I’ve been having some problems hearing so out of pure curiosity I decided to see if an app out there could tell me anything. Based on the reviews I decided to give it a try, full knowing nothing replaces a Dr. After going through the test it showed a mild hearing loss. I ended up getting referred to an audiologist her results were identical, in the more detailed aspect I now need to see an ENT for possible surgery. Fluid can’t be seen behind my ears but the detailed testing shows flat for the pressure. So glad HEARINGAIDAPP isn’t a gimmick it’s a handy app to track your hearing. Job well done! In addition to using HEARINGAIDAPP as a hearing aid, it can also be used as a listening device!  ‍

One of a kind. Far better than most paid hearing applications. I’ve used HEARINGAIDAPP for years, and it has not crashed once. On average, I use it 2-5 times a week. Parameters by default or custom are superb and simple to use.

by Helpful For Me

I have been using HEARINGAIDAPP for times when I can’t use my own hearing aids. The different profiles are great and it is a godsend when my hearing aids are not working. It has saved me in social and work situations, if you can believe it. Works great.

I just got over an inner ear problem that's temporarily making it hard to hear out of one year... I've gotta with a little bit tweaking here of there.. it will suffice until my problem goes away.

Top notch app for sure!

by Jazzybeat

Intuitive, simple to setup and it will save you a lot of money.

One suggestion to developer
Please include a clear tutorial or an option to turn on and off the amplifier. It was not clear that I have to click on the profile icon to turn it off.

by Nastaran Ab

I’m an Audiologist,I tried to use your app for one of my patients, he has a pair of Widex wireless hearing aids, i used com-dex as an interface to transform their combination into the bluetooth headset, but it didn’t work in microphone mode and it didn’t send sound via com dex into hearing aids.(Com-dex is a bluetooth interface between hearing aids and smart phones).is it any solution for this problem?

HEARINGAIDAPP works for me. For example, it is great for watching TV or at the cinema. It also is useful while riding in the car if I am not able to see my companion’s face while driving or riding. I am happy that I purchased it and have recommended it to my hearing impaired friends.
