Not so good
Listening to audio from my iPhone. Middling sound and odd connection issues. But Widex app tells me over and over hearing aids aren’t connected.
Excellent hearing aids for musicians, but man . . . what dismal performance this app.

Verschlimmbessert
Es geht mir ähnlich wie anderen Berichterstattern. Habe sehr lange die EVOKE getragen und teste jetzt die Allure. Das einzige, was positiv hervorzuheben ist, ist der bessere Klang. Die Allure HG und die App lösen bei mir ständig Bluetooth Probleme aus wohin gehend die EVOKE Geräte immer stabil funktionieren und keine Störungen auslösen. Schade, dass man ein so hochpreisiges Produkt unausgereift auf den Markt bringt

Unhappy
My hearing battery life went from over 24 hours to dying within 12 hours after 06/08/26 update! There has to be a bug in the update. These hearing aids are to damn expensive to have issues like an iPhone after an update.
Problem gelöst
Nach dem letzten Update der Software und der Firmware über die App und den Hörgeräteakustikefunktioniert nun das Zusammenspiel App und Hörgeräte. Die Hörqualität wurde nochmals verbessert.
Great hearing aids, lousy app
This is my third pair of Widex HAs and by far the best. The sound quality is amazing. Mine are paired to a base iPhone 16. Like others, I've seen the app flail around with maintaining its connection to the HAs, but I've never noticed a problem when I'm on a call. Note that I don't often stream music, but when I do, again, no problems.
My major complaint is the current version of the app, as of 7 June 2026. When this version came out a couple of weeks ago, it absolutely clobbered battery life. Before update, I'd put them in the charger as I went to bed after wearing them for 16 hours or so and they'd report 60-70% battery life remaining, or another 12 hours or so.
NOW the app reports 25-30% battery remaining. Either the app has a bug that introduced a race condition that is eating the battery, or the previous versions were not reporting battery life accurately. And since there's no way for us users to reach out to them after giving them $3-4,000+, who knows.
Plus they need to fix the Bluetooth issues.
I think they went wrong by trying to introduce "AI" into the app. The previous apps were solid, the new interface sucks.

Problem noch nicht gelöst. Schwierig
Nach dem Update der Software und der Firmware über die App funktionierte das Zusammenspiel App und Hörgeräte. Aber nur kurz. Leider nun wieder dieselbe Fehlermeldung. Fast neue Hörgeräte nun wieder nicht über die App ansteuerbar.
4.000 € Hörgerät mit rudimentärer App
Unfassbar, was sich Widex mit dieser App erlaubt. Keinerlei Möglichkeit, z.B. Geräusche zu filtern; bzw. die Intensität des Filterns einzustellen… Equalizer, Lautstärke, sonst nichts. Fokus nicht mal in der Pure-Einstellung einstellbar… Andere Hersteller machen das viel besser!! Unbedingt erneuern!!

Schwierig
Nach dem Firmware Update der fast neuen Geräte weigert sich nun auch noch das Tool die beiden hochpreisigen Teile zu erkennen und dokumentiert ständige Fehlermeldungen. Auch der nette und kompetente Akustikfachmann ist ratlos. Hotline für den Fachmann nicht erreichbar. Ein nutzloses Tool bei dieser renommierten Marke🤔? Glücklicherweise sind die beiden Geräte einfach top.

Needs fixes
One or both aids will disconnect and randomly switch settings hurting my ears. This are my first hearing aids and it is not a good experience. When trying to adjust the settings to get a better sound quality, the screen flips back to Home Screen and I can never set the sound. This is very annoying.
Bluetooth Connectivity Issues
After using Allure hearing aids
for four months I’ve come to the conclusion that there is a fundamental problem with BT connectivity. It randomly, and unexpectedly, drops the connection to one or both hearing aids. Incoming phone calls are pot-luck and returning back after a phone call is weird. Many times I have to reboot everything and start over. Also, the need to enter the equalizer and adjust one increment to get clearer sound is bizarre. Serious
problems here. I also use TVPlus and connectivity and integration with incoming phone calls while using TVP isn’t smooth. Many times I need to call the caller back once I reboot my app and devices. All-in-all, not a smooth experience and doesn’t perform as expected.
Note: I am previous Widex Moment user of 4+ years without any of these issues. My purchase was from my audiologist and included Widex company rep for setup. Have told them and gone through their technical support, problem not resolved.

Mieserable Software und noch miesere Hörgeräte
Nachdem man bei Widex nicht nur dazu neigt Bananenhardware sondern nun auch -Software abzuliefern ist diese App so nützlich wie ein Briefbeschwerer aus Balsaholz. Es gibt kein Musik Profil, der Equalizer steckt weiterhin in der Steinzeit, die Latenzen beim angeblich KI gestützten erstellen von programmen ist immernoch mega hinderlich. Der Menüaufbau soll aufgeräumtes premium anmuten ist aber einfach nur totgespart und verwirrend.

App is not reliable
Having errors, bad or no connection, re loading app, turning bluetooth off/ on pairing again, and being held captive to apple iPhone , makes the Widex experience terrible. Shouldve stayed with Opticon. 6500$ for bad unreliable app/ devices is such a rip off
Iphone accessibility setting works better
Wrestled with app fir 2 months to make it less harsh and tinny sounding while being able to hear. Impossible. I turned Bluetooth off on that phone with the aoo, used another phone and cinnected Bluetooth to the hearing aud and was stunned at how much better it sounded using the phone built in equalizer. Sounds great without having to switch through preset sounds in the app. This

Bluetooth major issues
As others stated the Bluetooth simply won’t stay connected. It randomly reconnects at will. Eg: such as for an incoming call it defaults to my hearing aides. I don’t really want them too. However, when streaming music they almost NEVR connect. I have to turn off phone and restart. They will connect, but then disconnect again. Then, I have to “forget device” and repair all over. This occurs EVERYDAY. $8,000 for these????? Still within my return period and they are going back. What a waste. I can’t run any tinnitus apps through them either - the main reason I bought them. If you can’t get Bluetooth to work, don’t sell this product!!!!!

Almost, but not entirely useless
Cannot set a default sound setting, every time you take them off the charger, they revert to ‘universal’.
Cannot update the universal setting (save it).
I had to have my audiologist change the base settings.
All in all a waste of time.

Really?
You pay $6000 for the upgraded Widex Allure and they can’t devote resources to developing an app that works and stays connected to the hearing aids instead of having to take them out and re-pair. I’m in my return window so these are going back to the audiologist.
Déception
Je suis très déçu de la qualité et du fonctionnement avec mon iPhone ils n’ont pas assez de mise à jour et ça ne marche pratiquement pas depuis iOS 26
iPhone Connectivity Issues
There is a connectivity issue between the app and my hearing aids with my iPhone. I restart my iPhone, restart my hearing aids, and put the hearing aids back on the charger in different combinations and sometimes it connects with the hearing aids. Fix the damn app!
Cannot pair my Allure hearing aids with this app on my iPad
The hearing aids are connected via iPad Settings > Accessibility > Hearing Devices. But the changes I can make there are limited. I need to pair to,the app so I can create custom programs and use the AI feature to fine tune that program
Improvements
I really wish the streaming audio menu was always accessible, not just when streaming music or video. I don’t understand why there can’t be two accessible menus; why the streaming one has to disappear when not steaming. It was the same with the Moment app. Also, I’m not able to turn down my streaming volume low enough. I’d like to listen to things without everyone around me also hearing it, and to get it down to a comfortable level. Can’t. It’s loud, then off completely. And when my phone rings, it’s way too loud. And the program beeps are as well! Just a bit more control overall would make a lot of difference to the people using these as their own cyborg ears.
