User reviews

A useful addition

Had more luck with Earplanes on my second attempt and the app helped, although I did take multiple other precautions against barotrauma so it’s hard to say what made a significant impact. Definitely worth a try.

Doesn’t work

You can’t even give it the permission it requires. Can’t start the app cause it keeps asking to update the settings however it already has notifications turned on

Work great

Me and my mom went to Chicago for spring break and on the way there on the plane my ear were hurting really badly so when I landed I looked up what can help and it said these so I went to the store and bought some and now I just landed and my ear feel like nothing this product works very well so does the app and you can also we’re headphones with them on.👍

Good product

Every time I flew my ears would hurt so bad or I would pop my eardrum until I started using this product. When I use it in the air I have no pain and no issues whatsoever. I will say though for shorter flights you might have to wear them the whole time but I still highly recommend this product.

Some kind of glitch?

I’ve turned on my location settings with them and yet it still says I need to activate them.
