Ratings and Reviews
Negative feedbacks help you grow
1. The icons showing the battery status are inaccurate and freeze all the time. Even after charged all night the icon still shows empty.
2. Syncing is not constant. I use the hearing aide for listening to programs on my iPad and the sound would disappear from time to time. I had to reset it in order to get it back and some times even reset doesn't work.
3. You need to make improvement immediately otherwise your customers will leave you for your competitors.
4. I wrote a review and after submitted it says 'nickname is taken' and the whole writing disappears! I scrolled to the bottom and did not see that name was taken. What is going on? Very disappointing!
Not perfect for me
I’ve been using this app for approximately three years now and have found several things that bother me while I am using the app. For starters it is annoying when I am listening to music or other media and there is a sudden noise nearby. Instead of attenuating the noise it amplifies it to an uncomfortable level. Kind of like a gun going off in my ears. Not cool. Secondly, I get a notification tone with every incoming message or email unless I turn it, the notification, off for each text, email etc. Makes it hard to concentrate on tasks at hand. Thirdly, if I am using an app such as a language learning app, the spoken sentences are clipped in the beginning due to the notification tones. Self defeating to say the least.
There are positives to the app such as the clarity when talking on the phone. I have a stethoscope that plugs in while at work that gives good amplification of the heart and breath sounds.
Im sure there are other items to be noted or improved on but that is all I have for now.
Frustrating at Best!
I have been using my Easytek for over 4 years and have been through 3 units so far. They work well for a few months and start failing routinely, nearly on schedule and almost the exact same way. First, the start to drop out while in use. Secondly, they constantly switch back and forth, sending on-off tones to my hearing aids which is extremely annoying. Then, as soon as I answer a call with the Easytek button and say hello, the call drops out of the bluetooth to regular phone. I can’t have that happen while driving in IL. Lastly, before it fails completely, the Easytek app or pendant, has to be constantly re-installed and paired to my phone and hearing aids in order to re-connect them together. Being as I go through the VA to get my care, I can only upgrade every 5 years and until my upgrade comes due, I am stuck with this. I’m not even sure if they will send things iff for repair, which leaves me without until items return. Typical! The VA obviously gets contracts to the lowest bidder. I do not recommend this product coupled by the Easytek pendant.
