If you use your hearing aids to stream calls wirelessly, you can expect a rise in battery drainage. Battery drain will be affected by how often you connect your hearing aids to the app, and how frequently the app is used for making adjustments to your hearing aids including the frequency and duration of phone call streaming (and/or audio streaming). If the battery is running low or you are concerned about running out of battery power, you can make manual volume adjustments on the ELEHEAR hearing aids as opposed to using the app.
1. Ensure that you have established a Bluetooth connection between the hearing aid and your device before attempting to connect to the app.
2. If the Bluetooth connection is already established but the app still cannot connect, please completely close the app and then restart it. After restarting, try searching for and connecting to the device again.

No, you don't necessarily need a smartphone to use OTC hearing aids. Both the Alpha Pro and Alpha models from ELEHEAR can function independently without a smartphone. However, if you want to take advantage of additional features such as adjusting volume, noise reduction level, and directionality, the ELEHEAR app can be used with the Alpha Pro model. But even without a smartphone, these hearing aids are designed to enhance your hearing experience.
ELEHEAR hearing aids are more affordable than many traditional hearing aids because they are sold over-the-counter (OTC). This means they bypass the need for a hearing care professional's involvement in the fitting and tuning process, which can often add significant costs. Additionally, ELEHEAR leverages advanced AI technology to provide high-quality sound amplification, which can be more cost-effective than traditional methods. However, it's important to note that while OTC hearing aids can be a great solution for many, they may not be suitable for everyone, especially those with severe or complex hearing loss.
