Troubleshooting Tip – Pairing

If you are having issues pairing your hearing aids to your phone and your hearing aids aren’t connecting, or they’re connecting but not streaming, follow these troubleshooting steps:

  1. Remove the pairing from the hearing aids
  2. Remove the pairing from the phone

DESIGNED TO GIVE YOU THE CONVENIENCE

The app covers key functions like changing programs and includes SoundSense Learn, which guides you to personalized hearing.

A TRULY SMART HEARING AID APP GIVES YOU CONTROL

IT’S A WHOLE
NEW WAY TO HEAR

Using the SoundSense Learn feature, you can easily make your own favorite hearing programs for specific sound environments.

Just listen to the two sound profiles the app gives you, and choose which sounds best: A or B. The more times you do it, the more you will personalize your preferred sound experience. 

Volume/Preference Control

At Widex, they like to use the term “preference control” as opposed to “volume control”. Volume control connotes turning everything up or everything down.

With preference control, if you go toward a louder setting, we assume that you want to hear speech sounds better. This control changes multiple settings at once. It either increases or decreases multiple features to give you more audibility or more comfort.

Within the preference control panel, there are four different setting categories: default, binaural, right/left independent and mute. In the binaural settings, you can adjust your hearing aids independently.

When the sound level is adjusted, a number will appear on the screen indicating the volume offset level to which the hearing aids were changed.

 If you have your volume control for both hearing aids acting together, you will see one number. If you want to adjust the right and left levels differently, you can do this within the R/L Independent settings category. In that case, you will see two different numbers on the screen indicating the different levels for the right and left hearing aid.

Once you go back to the main screen and use the slider bar, it’s changing them together, but it’s keeping the preset for your left and your right hearing needs. There is also a mute function so you can mute the hearing aids.

    Widex Evoke hearing aids are awesome. I do use the Evoke app. often. If there is a soft spoken person at church, I can easily turn up the volume to hear them better. This app. gives much better control than just a volume control dial on the hearing aids themselves. This article also informed me that just turning up the volume, like in most other hearing aids is not what happens with Widex Evoke aids. They understand that the person wants to hear better in that specific situation and adjust all their settings to provide that better hearing outcome. Amazing technology!
