Bluetooth hearing aids
Modern hearing aids double as tiny wireless earphones. Stream phone calls, TV and music straight into your ears, shaped to your own hearing loss. We connect everything up for you at your fitting, and show you how the app works.
What Bluetooth gets you.
Four everyday wins, all set up for you at your fitting.
Phone calls stream directly into both hearing aids, shaped to your hearing loss. On many current models you can answer hands-free.
Stream the TV directly, or via a small TV streamer accessory, so you hear it clearly without turning it up for everyone else.
Anything your phone plays can stream to your hearing aids, from music to sat-nav directions on a walk.
Adjust volume and programs discreetly from your phone, and receive remote adjustments from us where appropriate.
Newer models are also Auracast ready, an emerging broadcast standard that will let hearing aids tune into public audio in places like theatres, airports and lecture halls.
Bluetooth options from every brand.
All four brands we fit connect to iPhone and Android. We will confirm exact compatibility for your phone before you decide.
Direct streaming, made for iPhone and optimised for Android, with Bluetooth LE Audio on the newest models.

Frequently asked questions.
Current models from all four brands we fit connect to iPhone and Android. Exact features, like true hands-free calling, vary by model and phone, and we will confirm compatibility for your specific phone before you decide.
Streaming uses more power, but most current rechargeable models still comfortably last a full day including several hours of streaming.
Most current behind-the-ear and receiver-in-canal styles do. The very smallest invisible styles have limited room for wireless features, so there is a trade-off between size and streaming.
No. The apps are genuinely useful, but your hearing aids work perfectly well without ever opening one, and remote controls are available if you prefer buttons.
Yes. Some models stream directly, and every brand offers a small TV streamer accessory that sends the sound straight to your hearing aids at your own volume.
