WHY SHOULD YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEARING?

Did you know that unaddressed hearing loss could increase the rate of cognitive decline by up to 40%?*

Research suggests that addressing hearing loss in midlife is the biggest amenable risk factor for dementia - this means something we can change to potentially reduce our risk. With simple step-by-step hearing care, eargym makes it easy to look after your hearing health throughout life.

Designed by professionals and informed by research, eargym is an Alzheimer’s Society Innovation Award Winner and semi-finalist for the Longitude Prize on Dementia. Hearing loss is a common complaint and affects nearly 60% of people living with dementia. eargym’s training programme enables people to practise core listening and cognitive skills, including speech intelligibility, auditory processing, selective attention, and working memory.

HOW MUCH COULD YOU IMPROVE?

You could improve your hearing up to 20% in as little as 7 weeks.

Our latest research study shows that the more you train, the more you could benefit. 83% of participants agreed that eargym’s training was successful in improving their hearing skills, while 68% improved their ability to hear in noisy places.

HOW IT WORKS

Play with purpose: Entertaining and immersive games designed to improve auditory processing, reduce listening effort, and boost focus.

Discover your hearing: Join a community of people passionate about their hearing health with access to advice and resources to help you live well for longer.

Contribute to dementia research: Support the brilliant work of charitable and academic communities and train your brain to hear better with just a few minutes a day.

EARGYM USERS LIVING WITH DEMENTIA:

“When I heard about eargym I was intrigued because my anxiety means I struggle concentrating in rooms with lots of chatter. Honing in on a particular conversation when there is background noise is something that everyone struggles with to a degree, but it is exacerbated for those with dementia. [...] It is immensely useful for those like me, or with early onset dementia who want to keep mentally active and stimulated to maintain a better quality of life for longer.” - Peter from Sussex

“I am now in my sixties with dreadful short-term memory and often forget appointments. Keeping up with conversations when out socialising is also difficult. eargym’s benefits were instantaneous. The games really help hone your hearing which is a vital skill for those with dementia.” - Nigel from Swansea

Updated app not working!

I would have given this app five stars but I’ve just updated it on my iPad and it’s refusing to open! What do you suggest please? I’m wondering whether to delete it and start again, but I’d like to keep a record of my progress on the games! I think they’re all good and I wanted to try out the new one, but that will have to wait. Oh, under discover-listen - I also like playing the gamma sounds before bed: they’re very relaxing!

Developer Response ,

At last something clever to help my hearing!

I’m in my 50s and have noticed my hearing isn’t what it was. Particularly with background noise such as at parties or busy roads. Saying pardon all the time is embarrassing yet I don’t feel a hearing aid is something I can accept. I wanted something that tests my current hearing and then trains my ears to pick up particular sounds when there are increasingly distracting noises to deal with. This is really boosting my hearing confidence and it’s fun. I’m already competing on points with friends. It has become like brushing my teeth with 10 minutes a day and I’m keeping it going because my hearing score has improved. As I understand it this could never actually improve your hearing but it will train you to hear so much better.

Fun and engaging way to improve your hearing.

I work in a noisy environment with a lot of distracting background noise. I used to find it quite difficult to hear customers clearly but since using eargym that has changed. I can
now focus more easily on the conversation I want to hear and background noise is no longer so intrusive.

I thoroughly enjoy the training games especially being able to compare scores with other users. As each session only takes 6 minutes it’s very easy to find the time and fit into your daily routine.
