### 5/5 — Streaming

*2026-03-06*

Love this app!! Love how I can listen to music and such without a wire now!! Thank you

### 2/5 — Why does this app need to exist?

*2025-07-02*

Why doesn’t audio start streaming automatically? Instead you have to download a separate app that’s just a switch. I spent hours figuring out why audio wouldn’t stream only to figure out that I needed to download this. This app doesn’t need to exist.

### 3/5 — Needs a update

*2023-10-24*

Due to ongoing changes to phones as of late, this app needs to be updated to meet the demands.

### 2/5 — Version 1.2,  are you KIDDING ME!

*2023-04-05*

This app is THREE YEARS OLD! Version 1.0 was 3 years ago Version 1.1 and 1.2 were a year If you are concerned about a modern device with advanced app integration, Med-el is not that manufacturer. They mfg great hardware but they have zero interest in device integration.

### 5/5 — Not bad

*2023-02-12*

This does what it’s supposed to do stream all audio to the processor via Audio Link wirelessly…
Shame it’s very hard to see the on/off switch - needs a dark mode

### 5/5 — Works as it should

*2022-09-06*

Works as it should, without any issues.. so far

### 1/5 — Clunky

*2022-04-27*

This app and it’s ridiculous protocols are so illogical and clunky. No reason there needs to be an intermediate app with the direct to iPhone connection. I have to log my hearing aid out completely to use the connection at all. I think this will be sitting in the box until Med-El gets it figured out. For now it’s just a pile of feces with the current software. Wish I could rate it less than 1 star.

### 1/5 — Not worth the Hassle

*2021-11-12*

My Amazon $50 over ear headphones works so much better than this device which costs $659. I am in the process of returning Audio link because of static ness, scratching noises, and cutting out frequently. When I reached out to medel, they basically said that the Audiolink needs to be in perfect conditions (upright position, away from electrical interference like microwaves). I was hoping to use this like a regular Bluetooth headphone and it does not work like that. If you lose cellphone service, you cannot access the app. Therefore, you cannot stream music to your processor which I think is a big issue if you are going to pay this much for a device. Also, I have the Sonnet Cochlear Implant. Overall, not worth the hassle.

### 3/5 — Log On

*2021-03-29*

The app is pretty good most of the time. It gets a bit choppy depending on where the AudioLink is in relation to your phone. I prefer to carry my phone in my back pocket and that can degrade sound quality. My biggest peeve is that the app requires me to log in every time I use it. If I don’t have a good internet signal I am unable to log in or use the app. No bueno.

### 3/5 — 2nd the above comment/suggestion.

*2021-02-10*

Great program EXCEPT ... if out of Wi Fi range, you’re out of luck. ... can’t use it. 
2nd... why does an implant user have to log on at all? This should be between my phone and my Med El gadgets.
