Hearing Aids and Smartphones

Step 1:

Ensure your Bluetooth is turned on by going to settings then Bluetooth.

Step 2:

Go to Settings⇒ General⇒ Accessibility⇒ MFi Hearing Devices

Step 3:

Your phone should automatically find your hearing aids. If it does not, then open and close your battery doors. Under Devices, your hearing aids should be listed and say “Not Connected”

Step 4:

Select your hearing aids under “Devices”. Then your phone will ask you to pair your hearing aids individually. Select “Pair”. You will do this twice, one for each hearing aid. Or only once if you have one hearing aid.

Step 5:

Now that your hearing aids are connected, you should be able to see the battery life of your hearing aids, adjust volume, and decide if you want sound to stream to both hearing aids or just one.

Step 6:

Once the hearing aids are connected, the “Triple Click” function is now activated. Press the home button on your phone three times, quickly (if you do not press it fast enough, it will not register as a “Triple Click”)

Step 7:

Once the “Triple Click” menu is pulled up, you can adjust the volume and change programs quickly without having to manually press the button on your hearing aid.
