Pros and cons of easyTek app for iPhone and iPad

easyTek app good for

Works as promised.... Currently no issues. Have used it about a month now. A lot easier than messing with your ears all the time.

All favorable Needs improvement: A bit power hungry Loses connection to aids possibly only when low on power.

Is phenomenal! I just got my new Siemens hearing aids. Been wearing aids over 43 years. These are the best. And the app works seamlessly! Always exactly right. So I suspect many of the problems reviewers are mentioning are because of old Hearing Aids not from failure of the app. It is super!! I will add - after a few weeks of use - that with the phenomenal explosion of technology, and your expertise, it should be possible to make this app and easyTek combo into something outstanding! But I still love it! The new updated version is great! Fixed a few niggling bothers so its SMOOOTH! Thanx!

Some bad moments

how do you turn up volume on incoming calls ringtone. When I have the hearing aid on vibrate i can barely hear the ringtone music. If i put the hearing aids on sound it works find. With vibrate on i still want to be able to hear the ringtone music. Is there a way

Great when it works. But: 1- The nifty spatial configurator feature does not work with Sivantos CIC hearing aids. 2- Bluetooth fails a lot. 3- easyTek is relay device for devices too small for T-coil. Great for tel calls & music, but an unwanted feature "FM-Receiver" pops up on app screen, and cannot be shut off. In Bluetooth frenzy, phone & easyTek search & drain the batteries of both devices. Elaborate 10 minute re-boot works sometimes. Asked Sivantos to put FM on-off switch on the app.

Have had my easyTek for a couple of weeks. It keeps dropping Bluetooth signal. The signal is much weaker than any Bluetooth item I have had. I have to take my phone out of my pocket to regain signal! Is it me or is this a very old technology system?

I cannot get the app to install on my LG G4 at all it just hangs in an install loop is this getting fixed?

easyTec works well when linked to the app allowing me to hear conversation around a table very clearly. Also able to hear a Speaker in a large room even when fixed microphone system not working well. A problem arises trying to use the transmitter system. The easyTex rarely links with the transmitter. A very poor system at present. However when the link can be established it is truly awesome. Purchased the system September 2016

I am a bit disappointed about the easyTek device. Plugged to my home theater system and it lag ... Approx 300 ms ...
