The smartphone age is helping hearing aids get smarter — and even more customized. The new iPhone hearing aid can use a unique connection between your iPhone and a tiny receiver to help you hear better in a crowded restaurant, at work, on telephone calls and more.

THE TECHNOLOGY

iPhone hearing aids relies on a two-part system. First, there’s a hearing-aid receiver — a tiny device that rests on top of the ear. Second, a free smartphone app from the App Store called TruLink™ Hearing Control. TruLink™ works on the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch.

Through a wireless connection, the hearing aid and app can help overcome obstacles that would normally interfere with clear hearing. iPhone hearing aids are designed to:

  • Eliminate buzzing and whistling sounds
  • Increase reception of high-frequency tones (like kids’ voices)
  • Detect how noisy your surroundings are and help you adjust accordingly
  • Switch easily between settings when your needs change throughout the day

THE BENEFITS

iPhone hearing aids are a flexible hearing aid option that can:

  • Help you clearly hear calls, and stream them from phone to hearing aid
  • Stream FaceTime calls to your hearing aid
  • Play certain music to your hearing aid
  • Help you make out sounds in crowded, noisy environments
