Huge improvement in one area

I never write reviews but I feel compelled to because there are so many negative ones which is very different from my experience. I installed this in iOS 16 and now using in iOS 17 without issue. I have an iPhone 13pro

-I’ll start with the biggest improvement which is the Apple Watch complication. The previous one required using the Digital Crown to change volume which was very imprecise. The current complication has a + and - button to push which is much better. Also it has a toggle for the speech booster function which is new.
-the iPhone app itself is about the same as the prior version, very responsive and connected to my oticon miniRite hearing aids easily.
-The app shows estimated battery time (ie x hours ) remaining on the hearing aids in addition to the percentage charge remaining

I almost didn’t download the new app because of the poor reviews but I’m glad I did. I’d encourage you to give it a try and decide for yourself.

On or Companion?

I wish with the explanation for the use of this app It would tell you the difference between the On and the Companion app. I keep getting notifications to install the new version and when I hit it, it just goes to the download and says open without an explanation as to where the revised app is or what the latest version is. In neither explanation does it tell you the difference or which one you should be using. I can’t seem to tell the difference between the two, but it does tell you that having more than one app on your phone gives you problems with connectivity. Can anyone tell me the difference between the two apps and which one I should be using?

Response from developer

Dear Angelo DeF, thank you for your insightful and clear email and all the suggestions you shared. I will share your feedback with the relevant team. We would be happy to explain the difference and what new features are included. Please reach out to us at appsupport@oticon.com

Does not work with iPad

The app works fine with my iPhone but cannot get it to work with my iPad. I have a new pair of otican real hearing aids replacing an older pair that was working fine with my iPad. None of the troubleshooting suggestions worked. Now as far as rating the hearing aids for their primary use, hearing, they are excellent. My low rating is “only” for the iPad connection issue and nothing else.

UPDATED REVIEW: problem solved

I figured out the problem a few weeks ago. I had to remove the older set of hearing aids from my iPad. Oticon also contacted me today via email with the same advice. I also preferred a tv adapter that allows me to watch via blue tooth with the tv volume turned down or off. Easy to set up.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. You should be able to get your new hearing aids to work with your iPhone by deleting the old hearing aid pairing and pairing the new ones. You can do so on your iPad by going to Settings > Accessibility > Hearing Devices > Tap name of old hearing aids (if there) > tap 'Forget this device' > Restart new hearing aids to put them in pairing mode > Pair them on the screen of your iPad when prompted. Please do not hesitate to write us at appsupport@oticon.com if you need further support with this. Best regards, Oticon.

App not working

I have tried everything to get the app to work, since the last update for my iPhone and nothing is working. I have deleted the app and reloaded several times. I have followed all the steps to pair my hearing aids with the app, but nothing is working. It just stays on the page on how to pair your hearing aids. I just want to be able to use the app again, because when it was working it helped me adjust the volume of my hearing aids, be able to talk on the phone and hear people, and know when someone was trying to reach me on my phone. Now I can’t do any of those things because my hearing aids will not pair with my phone. When I go to accessibility, hearing aids, it shows my hearing aids are connected and paired with my phone, but the app will not work. I hope someone can help me.

Nice companion app

I find the Oticon App useful as it allows me to adjust my hearing aids without having to manually push the buttons on my More 1, especially when I’m wearing glasses. I do find however that I lose connectivity when I want to stream if I step away from my iPhone. Seems there is a problem re-establishing the connection when back in range.I would really like it if Oticon would provide more ambient sounds like thunder storm, rain forest, birds, ocean, and more. The brook sound is nice but not enough. Also please expand the equalizer for more than just High, Mid and Low. We nead more frequency adjustment sliders.
