RE: Hearing aids and HomePods
Max, I have found hearing aids do use the same Bluetooth arrangement and frequencies that other audio devices use. I fear you cannot use two audio devices at the same time. It is at least possible that the app that manages your hearing aid connection to your iPhone could allow some flexibility. * Your audiologist might have useful information and your hearing aids might be more flexible than mine. * Apple telephone accessibility technical support could also help. The phone number is 1-877-204-3930. Others on the list may know of a text-based option if texting them is better for you.. I hope you find a satisfactory solution.

Re: New hearing aids and blue tooth
Hello Maria, With my Starkey hearing aids, when I open the settings, there's a control called Audio Routing. It opens a screen with options for controlling what audio goes where. I would suggest seeing if you have these settings and working with them if you do. I hope you can find settings you like.

RE: hearing aids and iPhone
I have Starke hearing aids which I can pair to my phone. I have two settings under audio routing. The “call audio” setting is for phone calls. The “media” setting is for sounds on the phone. I usually keep my call audio setting paired since I find it easier to hear phone calls through my aids. I typically keep my media audio setting turned off unless I’m doing something like writing a text or playing a game when I’m out and about and don’t want to disturb others around me. It is quite easy to pair and unpair the aids. The setting is on my phone under accessibility. The only small drawback with having the phone calls paired is that I can’t call my phone from another device if I’ve mislaid it since it rings through my aids so I can’t use the ringing to locate my phone. I’ve solved this by telling Siri to tell me a story. I can usually hear the speaker and find the phone that way. Good luck with your hearing aids. I put mine in as soon as I get up in the morning and take them out the last thing at night. God bless!

RE: hearing aids and iPhone
I have Oticon hearing aids with MFI (made for iPhone) capability. I do have to turn off Bluetooth, say for Jim to talk to my daughter-in-law, because if I don't, and I'm anywhere close to him, her conversation will come through my hearing aids. My sighted sister and husband both got hearing aids at the same time, always use Bluetooth, as does my other sighted sister. One time, the sister and husband were up in the morning, and her phone rang. She couldn't hear a thing, but he could. They'd gotten their hearing aids mixed up! He had on hers, and she had on his. We got a lot of laugh mileage out of that one. So, yes, both my sighted sisters keep theirs on Bluetooth to their hearing aids. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of R Van Lant Sent: Sunday, October 29, 2023 5:12 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: hearing aids and iPhone Hi, I am plunging into the world of hearing aids.

Re: How to pair hearing aids with the iPhone?
Kay, I don’t have resound hearing aids, but if they are MFI certified, they should pair automatically. Perhaps there’s a setting that your hearing aids have to be in. I belong to a group of blind hearing aid users. I can ask there for you, but perhaps it’s the resounds you have. When I pair my oticons they automatically pair for me. Try the regular Bluetooth just in case that’s how they pair. I will check on the other list for you because I know that some of the people have resound. Hopefully someone here has them also.

Re: Question about Bluetooth, hearing aids, and Bluetooth phone set.
Carolyn, you can still use the phone if the headset is plugged in and not using Bluetooth. I usually have my phone in my pocket and most of the time, people can hear me just fine. I'm not sure if the microphone on the headset works when there's no Bluetooth, but you might want to give it a try.

Carolyn, You may need to decide when to use the Miccus as a Bluetooth headset and when not to. You can still use the headset and get some noise canceling but you won't have any Bluetooth functions. I have had this headset for nearly a year and I do this all of the time if the battery needs recharging, but I'm too into a book and don't want to stop long enough to charge the headset. Mine came with an additional connection cable so I could connect the headset via the SE's headphone Jack. The cable connects to the round jack on the right ear and the other end connects to the phone's headphone jack or to a lightening port adapter if you have a newer phone without a headphone jack. . If you do this while the headset is powered off, it behaves like a normal wired headset. You can use the headset to listen to audio, make and receive calls, etc. The downside to this is that the headset needs to be powered off, so none of the hands-free functions you get when the headset is on and using Bluetooth will work. You need to use the phone's home or side button to summon Siri to make calls. Likewise you can't use the media buttons on the right ear to pause or resume audio, you'd need to wake the phone up to stop or pause. Depending on how often you use your headphones or how often you need to take calls while listening with them, this method could work without needing to pair or re-pair your hearing aids or the headset. It could get kind of confusing and inconvenient, though, but it could be an option. Hope this helps.

Yes, mkine did too. The advantage of the Miccus is that yesterday, while emptying dryer, putting up clothes and other chores, I could happily talk on my phone, which laid on the table by my living room chair, while I scurried around the apartment. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Lisa Belville Sent: Friday, December 13, 2019 1:14 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Question about Bluetooth, hearing aids, and Bluetooth phone set. Carolyn, You may need to decide when to use the Miccus as a Bluetooth headset and when not to. You can still use the headset and get some noise canceling but you won't have any Bluetooth functions. I have had this headset for nearly a year and I do this all of the time if the battery needs recharging, but I'm too into a book and don't want to stop long enough to charge the headset. Mine came with an additional connection cable so I could connect the headset via the SE's headphone Jack. The cable connects to the round jack on the right ear and the other end connects to the phone's headphone jack or to a lightening port adapter if you have a newer phone without a headphone jack. . If you do this while the headset is powered off, it behaves like a normal wired headset. You can use the headset to listen to audio, make and receive calls, etc. The downside to this is that the headset needs to be powered off, so none of the hands-free functions you get when the headset is on and using Bluetooth will work. You need to use the phone's home or side button to summon Siri to make calls. Likewise you can't use the media buttons on the right ear to pause or resume audio, you'd need to wake the phone up to stop or pause. Depending on how often you use your headphones or how often you need to take calls while listening with them, this method could work without needing to pair or re-pair your hearing aids or the headset. It could get kind of confusing and inconvenient, though, but it could be an option. Hope this helps.

Question about Bluetooth, hearing aids, and Bluetooth phone set.
I bought a Bluetooth for my phone that I really like. In order to get it connected, I turn off my hearing aids and get in another room; it comes on fine. It does everything it is supposed to do. But, now, here is my question. When I get my hearing aids back on, they pair too. I do not want the hearing aids to pair, when my Miccus device is paired, but I really need my hearing aids in order to function. So, anyone have any idea what to do to keep the hearing aids from coming on when I turn on the phone one other than going into Hearing and disconnecting them, then, when I need my daily tinnitus treatment, I'd have to pair the hearing aids again, and when treatment through, disconnect again? Surely, there is a better way. What do you think, please? -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

V13.2 and issue with hearing aids
Hello all, I went to my Audiologist today and we phoned the Audicon tech support person that works with the providers and they have heard of the issue of VO still playing through the hearing aids but not the screen clicks and beeps. The Bluetooth team says that the issue is with Apple choosing what to allow to be pushed through to the hearing aids. So, please all of you with hearing aids, please complain to Apple about this issue. I believe the tech folks at Audicon because others on this list are having the same issue with various different brands of Has.

RE: Anyone who uses hearing aids, please read
Out of close to a dozen audiologists I have worked with only one really took the time to insure I had good aids. He worked for the VA and kept up with the news releases for various companies. He also talked with company engineers on a regular basis. He took the time to explain why a particular aid was best for me and replaced my aids early if a significant improvement had been made. Unfortunately he retired. And his replacement, who was nearly as good, also retired shortly later. I have audiologist tell me I don’t need features that would help me. One questioned the amount of support equipment I had and didn’t believe me when I told her it wears out in months. When I told her she had programmed my aids incorrectly, she walked out of the room without saying anything. I have a pair of Resound aids that are great for some things especially working with the computer. I also have an old pair of Phonak aids that work better in some situations. I usually wear one of each. I have the computer work through the Resound and the phone through the Phonak. I have never tried the Resound app. Too many people do not consider multiple handicaps.

RE: Anyone who uses hearing aids, please read
Dear Steve & List: Pack your 5440, take the 09:14 to Dodge, and let them have it at High Noon! Resound never considered that anyone with a vision problem would be prescribed their hearing aids. Or visit the DOJ. Take the Uptown "E" from 23 St. Station to Penn Station. Then the Acela to DC Union Station. Not cheap, First Class is $455 each way. Think Amtrak sells monthly Acela tickets. Rachel and I Safaried to Washington DC Union Station one day to visit a friend of mine by the Acela. She loved the lack of screaming kids, complimentary Coffee, O. J. etc. in the Metropolitan Lounge just for First Class travelers. Asked about the fare and almost died. Said we could have flown for that. Liked the comp. headphones and hot meal with the works. One un-advertised perk of First-Class Amtrak is the bar is bottomless! One of their agents said if this were advertised, the W. C. T. U. would lobby Congress to pass The Volstead Act II. Friend of mine living in my building was told The Blue Rinse Mob leave their meeting at their venue, Willard Hall, and promptly proceed to Mickey Finn's Bar & Grill across the street!

Re: Anyone who uses hearing aids, please read
Absolutely correct. And the salespeople are equally as clueless. They even recommended I contact my phone carrier for support. And the stupid audiologist who sold me these otherwise fine devices agreed with them, saying he thought it was the best idea! Wait until I go back for my first follow-up on the 13th and tell him the interest I've aroused on this list! I hope all you ReSound users are carrying the flag over to the ReSound people and letting them know we're out here and something needs to be done. Of course, we don't have to get militant on them, or in the words of a set of books I just finished reading, we don't have to get western on them (LOL), but we're out here, and equal access isn't just an idea any more.

Re: Anyone who uses hearing aids, please read
What you can do is write to ReSound via their contact form and let them know you're out here and need their developer to get with the program regarding accessibility. This has to be a very focused approach, otherwise there's no point in contacting half a dozen different people who can't do anything for us. If this guy Matthew Oslund hears from all of us with same or similar issues, it has more of an impact on the developer when he/she/they get(s) to hear about it. It sounded to me like that development is not done by ReSound, that it's jobbed out to another company, and until we have direct contact with that other company, we have to go through channels, as they say, and the channel we should use is the ReSound contact form.

Carolyn, what I'm getting ready to tell you may not work, in fact, you may have already tried it already. Hardware and software can be strange and not work, so here's what I had to do with something a bit more simpler, having to do with a bluetooth keyboard. But I could not get that thing to pare and it was setting right in the bluetooth devices. So I turned the bluetooth keyboard off, and I decided to tell the iphone to forget about the device. then I turned the bluetooth on the iphone, off and then back on. and then I turned the bluetooth keyboard back on, and the iphone was ready to pare. It gave me a code to type in on the bluetooth keyboard, and I typed it in, and hit enter and I was done. It began working perfectly then. Give that a try, and if that doesn't work I'll see what I could do to come up with something else. I hope it works for you.

RE: Pairing hearing aids to phone.
Carolyn, My wife has the Otticon hearing aids and she pairs it through the accessibility settings. Go to settings, general, accessibility, MFI hearing device. Click on Otticon1. There should be a button that shows up to pair. You need to do the left and right aids separately. Hope this helps.

Re: Pairing hearing aids to phone.
Carolyn, turning bluetooth off and back on or restarting the phone might not work. Even the instructions I gave you, might not work. If you tried them and they didn't work, then unless I come up with something else before you go to the audiologist, hopefully they could solve it. If you do try the instructions, I hope they work. If you need help with the instructions, let me know.

Hi Carolyn. Have you tried opening the battery doors and then closing them just before you pair them under MFi devices? So, before you go into settings on your phone, turn the aids off and back on.

I think it might take a fix from there.

Pairing hearing aids to phone.
For some reason, yesterday, when I wanted to use my music program, my hearing aids were not paired, and on two separate occasions, I tried to pair them again. Anyone have an idea what I could be doing wrong. I go to MFI Hearing. I turn on Bluetooth, I slightly open my aids, but so far, I haven't been able to get them paired, and I don't know if I need to open them or not. I just tried one more time, but I could not make it happen. If you pray, don't worry; if you worry, don't pray, Carolyn -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

RE: Hearing aids locking up when streaming media or telephone
It does, and I knew that going in. Interesting that the Resound and the Oticon engineer seem frustrated about some conflict with VoiceOver and Blue Tooth. It could be a rather common problem. I suspect that through the years, it will improve. It would be nice if you could set it for automatic or manual. I'd prefer manual, because if the Blue Tooth really worked, I'd want it most of the time. One thing about it though, is that it uses more battery from phone and from hearing aids.

First of all aids when connecting to media, VO and telephone use Apples Hearing software MFI. So here is what happens. When I have my iPhone set for phone calls to come into my aids that part works well. But when I end the call my aids drop back to the aids. But when I make any gestures on the iPhone VO is still connecting to my aids even though I have that turned off. The only way to get VO not to go into my aids or stop if from doing that I have to go into the control panel and set it back to the iPhone instead of the hearing aids. Normally what is suppose to happen is when I am done with a call everything is suppose to go back to the iPhone but VO does not. This is a known issues with VO users. People who do not use VO do not have this issue. The Resound tech told me Apple has to make a change for this to be corrected. So if you have VO going into your aids all the time you will not have a problem. The issue is I don't want VO to go to my aids after the call has ended. I want it to come out the iPhone speaker and this is what is not working correctly. I have to manually go in and change this every time after a phone call. I hope this makes some sense to all of you hearing aid users.

I do have 30 days. I might ask him about an alternative. My cousin has Resound that she got from Hearing Aid Express. She has had hers for eight years, realizes that probably her hearing loss is not as much as mine, but she is really happy with them.

RE: Hearing aids locking up when streaming media or telephone
The audiologist talked to the Oticon engineer, and I have the impression that when he got to blind, that did it. The engineer said it would not be compatible with VoiceOver. It does work, but there is an echo for my calling party. I can use my old headset just fine. I just hate to have paid for something I can't really use, feel like I am entitled to some kind of refund, but, of course, that is like feeling like I should be able to fly to the grocery store too.
