Bluetooth is a commonly used technology that allows two or more devices to communicate without being physically connected. The technology is embedded in a range of modern technologies you likely already have in your home, like your smartphone, TV, computer, or music player. It’s a popular feature in modern hearing aids, allowing an enhanced connection experience with the world.
The technology utilizes radio waves to send signals between devices through a process known as streaming. Radio waves from two or more devices can “talk” invisibly over a range up to 30 feet. This means you can be standing far away from your television or music player and still stream sound directly into your hearing aids. Streaming is bi-directional, which means you can not only hear sound from other devices, you can feed sound back. So, if you’re taking a hands-free phone call in the car, not only can your hearing aids stream the sound from your phone directly into your ears, when you speak, your voice will be streamed seamlessly back to the phone.
Bluetooth hearing aids function as a wireless headset for Apple and Android devices, while also improving your hearing. You can stream music, take calls, and participate in online meetings by directly linking your hearing aids.
Android devices are also compatible with bluetooth hearing aids. Pair your hearing aids with any Android device to stream calls, videos, or music.
Most modern televisions and music players allow direct Bluetooth streaming. Simply pair your hearing aids with the device you want to listen to and press play.
One of the main benefits is that you get typical features of traditional hearing aids, with the added advantage of the most advanced connection possible. You can take calls hands-free, and stream music and television directly into your ears, without disturbing friends, family, or anyone else around you.
Bluetooth technology is not for everyone, which is why it’s important to consider your priorities before buying. Invisible or behind the ear hearing aids that do not come equipped with Bluetooth may be more affordable, offer more simple technology, and have better battery life.
The main advantages of Bluetooth hearing aids are:
Ever find it difficult to understand TV? Bluetooth helps with that. When sound from the TV is streamed directly, reverberation from the TV speakers is eliminated allowing for a better hearing experience.Since the the sound is directly in your ears, there is no need to turn up the volume or wear headphones.
Speaking on the phone while wearing a hearing aid can be challenging and uncomfortable. Connecting to bluetooth resolves these issues and allows a hands-free, more comfortable connection.
Streaming audio from your electronic devices to your hearing aids filters out background noise and allows you to fully enjoy the sounds you really want to hear – like your favorite piece of music – without any whistling. You can also take a walk in the park while listening to audio and not worry about extraneous environmental sounds.
