Holding a phone up to your ear when you\u2019re wearing hearing aids can cause unpleasant feedback, which also makes conversations harder. By streaming your calls directly into your hearing aids, you ensure high-quality sound and improved communication.<\/li><li><strong>Stream music and other media. <\/strong>In addition to phone calls, your hearing aids can double as wireless earbuds and allow you to stream your favorite music or podcast while doing chores or taking a walk through <a href=\"http:\/\/cityofmobile.org\/parks-rec\/cooper-riverside-park\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Cooper Riverside Park.<\/a><\/li><li><strong>Make easy adjustments. <\/strong>By syncing your devices, you can easily and discretely adjust the volume or settings for your hearing aids from your smartphone. Some apps even give your audiologist the ability to make adjustments remotely, which can save you a trip to the office.<\/li><li><strong>Keep track of important information. <\/strong>Connecting your hearing aids to your smartphone makes it easier to do things like monitor your hearing health and check your battery life.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you would like additional information on connecting your hearing aids to your smartphone or wish to schedule an appointment, contact <span class=\"company-name \">Premier Medical Group<\/span> today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><ul class=\"related-posts\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/hearingaidsmobile.com\/what-makes-me-most-likely-to-develop-hearing-loss\/\" class=\"related-post\">What Makes Me Most Likely to Develop Hearing Loss<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/hearingaidsmobile.com\/disaster-preparation-tips-for-those-with-hearing-aids\/\" class=\"related-post\">Disaster Preparation Tips For Those With Hearing Aids<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/hearingaidsmobile.com\/how-can-hearing-aids-restore-your-confidence\/\" class=\"related-post\">How Can Hearing Aids Restore Your Confidence?<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the coolest features of modern hearing aids is their ability to sync up with other technology.
