Make room for implant sound—without leaving natural hearing behind. HearLift is listening practice for people with single-sided deafness who have a cochlear implant in their deaf ear and natural hearing in the other. Help your brain practice combining both inputs. Lower-volume natural hearing support offers a middle ground between relying mainly on natural hearing and listening through your implant alone. Keep that support steady or let HearLift vary it automatically. EXPLORE SIMULATED IMPLANT MODE Family, friends, and audiologists with natural hearing in both ears can try Simulated implant mode to evaluate HearLift for someone who may benefit. Hear simulated implant sound alongside natural sound, and explore different ways of combining them. Simulation is an illustrative demo, not an exact recreation of anyone’s implant hearing or a practice mode for implant users. HEAR HOW IT WORKS Start with an included listening sample after setup—no title download or narrator choice needed. Explore the listening patterns before choosing your own content. BECOME WELL-READ, ONE LISTEN AT A TIME Explore classic stories and novels while practicing with your implant and natural hearing. Read along one passage at a time, or simply listen. If something isn’t clear, go back and hear it again. HearLift saves your place, lets you jump to chapters, and supports background listening and lock-screen playback controls for your titles. MAKE THE PRACTICE YOUR OWN • Find a comfortable personal starting point with guided listening setup. • Keep natural hearing support steady, vary it with a regular rhythm or random timing, or let it fade as passages begin. • Try Alternating ears, where one ear’s volume rises as the other’s falls. • Adjust support and reading speed while you listen. CHOOSE WHAT YOU WANT TO HEAR • Download pre-recorded books with selected synthetic narrators and listen offline. • Discover free books through Project Gutenberg and Wikisource. • Bring your own EPUB or text files and hear them read aloud. Choose included HearLift voices on supported devices or available built-in Apple voices. Optional Microsoft Azure voices require separate setup and internet access; service charges may apply. YOUR LISTENING SETUP For implant practice, over-ear headphones deliver the same narration to your natural ear and your implant processor’s microphone. HearLift adjusts each side separately. Another setup must deliver the same audio to both ears with clear left/right separation. No HearLift account is required. Book availability and permissions vary by source and country. HearLift is a listening-practice aid, not a substitute for professional care. Results vary and aren’t guaranteed. Consult your audiologist for guidance on practice with your cochlear implant.
