## Review summary

Users appreciate the app's core features like volume and tone control, including the Sound Match hearing test, and note good design of the hearing aids themselves. However, significant issues with app stability, connectivity to devices, failed updates, and poor Android compatibility hinder usability. Many complain about bugs, lack of visual feedback, and short battery life of hearing aids. Customer support responses vary, with some replacements but also delays and unresolved problems. These app and device reliability problems are a major source of user dissatisfaction despite the potential benefits offered.

### Pros

- The app allows control of hearing aids including volume, tone, and noise canceling settings.
- Sound Match feature provides a hearing test through the devices and adjusts settings accordingly.
- Recent updates have improved remote control features and volume control usability.
- Good engineering keeps hearing aids comfortable, especially compared to over-the-ear models.
- Customer support has been responsive in some cases, including replacing defective hardware.

### Cons

- The app frequently fails to connect to the hearing aids or charger, causing frustration.
- Updates often fail or freeze the app, sometimes bricking the charger device.
- Many users report software bugs and glitches, including issues with Sound Match and inconsistent results from adjustments.
- Lack of visual indicators, such as volume level display, reduces usability.
- Poor Android support with limited compatibility and lack of troubleshooting resources.
- Battery life of the hearing aids is often short, with replacements needed within 1-2 years and out of warranty.
- Poor communication and delayed or unhelpful customer support in resolving app or device issues.
