Terrible
VA issued this junk - does not work, will not sync with phone. Sent them in for repair and month later they send non working pair back??
Problem with the Thrive app
I have had these hearing aids and use Thrive for 4 yrs. Lately when watching movies or listen to music on apps the volume was cut way back so I could hardly hear. I spoke with a tech and we step my step checked the setting. We made some adjustment and it was volume back to normal.
It lasted a few days now my left one squeals if I hold it and I’m hearing the start up tones but Thrive say it is off. So my iphone isn’t getting the sound from it and but the settings for bluetooth acknowledge 2 devices. I’m 80 and this is very upsetting. The location close to me that I always go to is only open Mon and Wed
I don’t drive and have no one to drive me to a different location which means taking a highway and I don’t drive those unless I have no other option.

Thank you for the comment. You can always try calling the Techs to see if they can help you over the phone. They are excellent with guiding people to a solution over the phone.
OKAY- but needs improvement - 5 year user
Mostly does what it should. Generally great for phone calls and audio listening!
Lately, after iPhone updates loses fitness data until shut down and restarted.

Thank you for the feedback. We appreciate you taking the time.
Not That Great!
This is probably the worst app in my phone. It frequently has trouble finding my hearing aids. I have to reboot my phone and hearing aids to get it to connect. I usually have to make adjustments by using the iPhone’s settings app. It’s not a great app.

Ok
Untested, not even beta software
Refused to recognise Starkey Omega hearing aids. Deleted.
Horrible App
I am so frustrated! With all the amazing apps out there, this one is terrible and I’m stick with it!!!! The Audiologist has too much control and has to do everything from their own computer. I can’t even edit a custom sound. I want it labeled Tinnitus and it says Normal 2. Also there is no way to monitor the batteries. My hearing aids are Starsky…. This is what I have to use. Thrive is awful!!!!

No longer works
The first year I had my hearing aids the app worked great for me both on my galaxy phone and my iPad. However 18 months ago, I kept losing connection on my phone and finally gave up. Then the last year only one of them would connect on the iPad. I just tried to reconnect and it said I would need to unpair the working one. Now neither one will pair.

iPhone 16
This app does not work with an iPhone 16. Very disappointing. I can’t update firmware until app recognises hearing aids are connected. Frustrating experience over all. Not a happy user.
un thrive able
if this ap were for lifesaving I'd be dead long ago
it works about 1/8 of the time
tech support is on speed-dial
Starkey could/should do much better

Starkey app
The starkey app refuses to link to my hearing aids. This happens to me very often. It will work for a while then not sync. It stinks.
Currently use
I have evolv AI 1200 rechargeable RIC hearing aids but firmware hasn’t updated with them in 2-3 years the app won’t transcribe anything for me. And it won’t find what’s going on with my hearing aids currently
Thrive
I’d like to see an update for the thrive app
Doesn’t seem to work at all on iPad
I have been using this app on Android, where it is quite flaky, i.e. it crashes repeatedly and will take minutes to register the right channel, and I am having other problems with that device, so I have installed the app on my iPad as a backup, but it just won’t detect my hearing aids at all.
Shyt app
Don’t want it can’t remove
Piss poor
Bluetooth is nothing but static and doesn’t even recognize my hearing aids most of the time. I dunno how much these app developers get paid but it’s too much. I did try impairing and pairing it again. Did absolutely nothing and I'm
Not surprised. Now the app just tells me I need to close and reopen it for “functionality” reasons. App is straight up garbage and avoid it if you can.

Interferes with other Bluetooth functions
Thrive on my iPhone, even if it's not open, keeps Apple Pay from working, and having thrive hearing aids listed in iPhone Accessibility also blocks audio from Emergency Dispatch and from navigation apps including Google. I searched for a resolution online and first AI recommendation was to permanently remove Thrive from my iPhone. Now I just have to figure out how to program my hearing aids so I can adjust the volume with the two buttons on each one. After fighting with this problem for several years I have come to hate the Thrive app and Starkey hearing aids, which are at best, very expensive mediocre hearing aids.

Thank you for your feedback. The iPhone will give you an audio source button to manage the calls. We will communicate your wish for tap commands to answer the call.
Hard to connect to this app.
My hearing aids instantly connect to my iPhone. I then have to wait 3 to 7 seconds, twice, to connect this app. Unacceptable!
Not good
I spent £3000 on my Starkey’s hearing aids. The app freezes regularly I have never had a day without problems. My connection to me aids drops off daily one or both aids . I don’t wear them anymore the frustration is too much , weekly visits to my hearing centre is too much . Never again
