I would love to be able to punch my audiogram into my phone to get AirPods or similar to do the right amount of amplification.
I can hear almost nothing at many frequencies without amplification in my right ear but have normal hearing in my left. This means I can use a regular headset to hear well with my left ear or use Bluetooth on my one hearing aid to hear with my right ear.

- mgerdts 4y agoIt looks like you can punch in an audiogram. Now I just need to shell out more money for compatible earbuds. I don’t think that will act as a hearing aid yet, so it would leave me switching between AirPods and my hearing aid. The first hearing aid I lost was due to switching between a hearing aid and hearing protection.
- skybrian 4y agoHere’s an article about using the AirPod Pro as a hearing aid. Apparently it sort of works already, but battery life probably isn’t good enough. https://www.hearingtracker.com/hearables/airpods-pro https://www.hearingtracker.com/hearables/airpods-pro
