Ständig muss man das Handy neu starten wenn man Glück hat funktioniert die App dann für 10 Minuten bis sie wieder abstürzt. Unglaublich was sich Kind da leistet. Nie wieder Hörgeräte von Kind ### 1/5 — Grundlose Verbindungsunterbrechung *2025-08-24* Verbindung wird oft grundlos unterbrochen bei neuer Koppelung oft nur eine Seite verbunden ### 1/5 — deutlich Luft nach oben. *2025-07-07* Die Hörgeräte verlieren alle Naselang die Verbindung zur App (nicht zum iPhone) und dann passiert es oft, dass bei Tonwiedergabe auf dem Handy eine Seite nur laut und unangenehm rauscht. In der Preisklasse kann man deutlich mehr erwarten. Außerdem ist die Füllstandsanzeige der Batterie einfach nur Müll. Im einen Moment hat die Batterie 70%, im nächsten meldet sich das Hörgerät und steht bei 10% und ist kurz vor dem Ausgehen. ### 3/5 — Ausbaufähig *2025-03-21* Bin einigermaßen zufrieden. Was mich stört, ist, dass ich beim Streaming den doch sehr simplen Equalizer jeden Tag neu einstellen muss. Es dürfte doch eigentlich kein Problem sein, die Einstellungen beizubehalten, beziehungsweise den User wählen zu lassen, ob diese Einstellungen permanent sein sollen oder vorübergehend. Auch die Lautstärkeneinstellung sollte beibehalten werden. ### 1/5 — Preis und Leistung Verhältnis passt einfach nicht. *2025-03-17* Zum guten Hardware gehört auch zuverlässige Software. ### 5/5 — Zu Unrecht schlecht bewertet! *2024-12-22* Die App funktioniert BESTENS!! Ich habe folgendes festgestellt: wenn das Hörgerät mit dem iPhone UND mit dem iPad gekoppelt ist, dann verbindet sich die App nur wenn bei einem Gerät Bluetooth ausgeschaltet ist. Also: wenn die App mit dem iPhone funktionieren soll, dann bitte Bluetooth am iPad ausschalten - und umgekehrt! Warum reagiert Kindl nicht. Eine Bewertung von 1,9 ist ALARMIEREND und kostet 100%tig Kunden!! ### 4/5 — Kopplung gelingt *2024-05-06* Jetzt ist die Kopplung endlich gelungen und die App funktioniert! Grund war die nicht beabsichtigte Kopplung mit meinem iPad. Das Löschen der Bluetooth-Verbindung am iPad hat die Lösung gebracht. 😊 ### 5/5 — App *2024-04-13* Funktionalität ist miserabel. App verbindet sich nur sporadisch. Einzig die Verbindung in den Einstellungen des Handy‘s sind stabil. Laufende Neuinstallation ist keine Lösung. ## Frequently asked questions about KINDconnect ### What can KINDconnect do for my hearing aids?
