### 4/5 — Helpful app

*2023-06-25*

This app lets me make most of the adjustments needed to my hearing aids, but it doesn’t let me alter the volume of each earpiece, something I really need, and it doesn’t give me the model number of my aids, I can’t select more detailed information online. The battery status is of questionable value - it usually gives 3 beeps even when the battery is about to die. This may be due to the battery discharge curve having a sharp cutoff.  I like being able to modify the frequency response, but I wish I could change the relative volume of the earbuds.

### 4/5 — Unfortunate Change

*2022-12-15, version 2.60.1*

I have had the app for almost five years and have generally been pleased with it.  The first version had a rough way to check remaining battery life, either three, two or one beep depending on how close to the end.  The new version does not and I rated it “4” as a result to lower it from a “5” it would otherwise deserve.

### 2/5 — Fairly worthless app

*2022-07-17, version 2.60.1*

With all that can be done nowadays, this is a disappointment. Almost nothing can be done with this app. The settings that are changeable don’t really make any difference so why change them? Then why use the app? For that reason, I never use it.

### 3/5 — Where is the battery strength test screen?

*2022-06-13, version 2.60.1*

After getting a new phone,I had to download the app again. Unfortunately, it no longer has the screen that allows you to test the battery strength. What happened?

### 2/5 — Not the quality I explected

*2022-04-27, version 2.60.1*

I t tried several different hearing aids before settling for the Rexton.  Two years later I am sorry I purchased them. They have limited adjustment features (ie background noise suppression, cellphone connectivity, directional adjustment). Also, the sound quality varies. Some days it’s fine, other days it’s like I’m hearing in a cave. Sometimes the sound variance occurs the same day. Bad choice on my part. I’m in the process of evaluating a replacement pair. I won’t make the same mistake twice.

### 1/5 — Save. Please save.

*2022-02-27, version 2.60.1*

Why do I have to readjust the hearing aids every morning?  Why isn’t there a way to save the setting I use most? Having to continually change the settings seems counterproductive.  No wonder olde people who have less ability to find the tiny buttons give up on their hearing aids. If I only go to a place with a t coil once a week, I might only need to change it once a week. Not every single morning.

### 3/5 — Add option for iCloud

*2021-12-13, version 2.60.1*

Is there an option to save the device settings with iCloud that in a situation where the device is restored to factory settings the information of the hearing devices are saved?

### 1/5 — Wearer

*2021-11-04, version 2.60.1*

Audiologist adjusted my hearing so loud it distorts. I want to turn down my left hearing aid and cannot. I can turn both down but not just one. Also I have it connected via Bluetooth to my phone and it won’t allow full control unless I disconnect it from my phone. I don’t understand that logic. 
So I just want to do one thing. Turn down my left hearing aid and cannot. Ughh. One star

### 2/5 — Nice but needs work

*2021-10-14, version 2.60.1*

When I open the app I can’t do much. I am blind and the app doesn’t fully work with Voice over. Voice over is the screen reading program that comes installed with the iPhone ohS. Kind of ironic that an app built for the disabled does not consider all forms of disabilities.

### 4/5 — Save option

*2021-09-13, version 2.60.1*

Someone mentioned a save option when you  have adjusted your hearing aid to where you are satisfied with the results it should be saved..That is a very good idea And should be applied to the app ..
