App works very well with my new Phonak hearing aids. Helps me deal with my 24/7 tinnitus, suffered from combat. Regarding sounds included I found them in the App, so not sure why others are complaining. Tip: When you open the App it says under the Sound Type tab that there's zero present. But press the arrow on the right side, that will cause a pop-up message that says "get started by adding a sound", press that and a "select from library" option will appear. Press that, the "default sounds" included with the app will appear. (E.g., Blackbirds, campfire, chimes, harbor, ocean.") Tip to Phonak: you need to make this App easier to use. Sounds included should appear on a menu when one first opens the App. I "hear" a 4800 mHz tone. This sound machine app, so to speak, sends supplied or selected sounds, aka white noise, to lessen or eliminate the tone I hear. Oh, I get my hearing aids from the VA. This time, June 3019, I got Phonak Audeo M90-R RIC.
It says: You can select sounds from your SmartPhone’s music library or there is a list of default sounds. There were no default sounds available with the app. Uninstalled.
Very "clunky" to use the app. Needs to simplify actions, some things need extra clicks or long presses with no uniformity. Had to run thru about 5 timea to get it to stop undoing what i had just done
On repeat, the sounds are not continuous. There is actually a 1-second silence which is very disruptive.
Don't have hearing aids yet but this app is excellent with earbuds. Really bad tinnitus.
i was under the impression that this would bluetooth to my hearing aids not just sound from my phone.
Wasn't what I expected at all. I didn't want more noises, I wanted less sounds.
There was supposed to be default sounds to pick from. what file type is required?
Very helpful in relieving tinnitus.
Not usable for newer Android phone
This needs a volume control.
After 4 years I would think it's about time to update.
Needs to be updated
Not what was first visualized
Doesn't do a lot of anything.
this is great
I've used these types of apps before but this is the only one to make my tinnitus worse. I would be reluctant to buy a Phonak hearing aid now.
Very helpful especially during bedtime.
I have tinnitus. Mine is so bad that I wear Phonak hearing aids with a white noise generator. There's no white noise sound for this app. The concept is great in that you really want your brain to concentrate on another sound letting the tinnitus blend in rather than mask it.
This app for tinnitus really works. After installing then picking the sounds and playing them, my tinnitus stopped bothering me. What a wonderful app.
Good quality app. Suggest make a night mode so the all white don't fry my eyes when I use it at night (which is when you need it)
Grear effort. Thank you. This helps. But cuts off
This app does nothing, Just Spam Nothing but Spam
White noise called Relax Melodies is what you want.....its sooo good just touch for tuns of sounds and you can mix up to 10 sounds..just go see it for yourself...im shocked how bad phonak is..garbage!
Have severe tinnitus and this does help
But I don't believe this is a medical app. This is just a music player with some sounds in library. The sounds in library are not designed to hide tinnitus with minimum possible volume and the shuffle is not gapless. Some sounds in the library are very loud for comfort(like station) and some have their own audible background static that replace tinnitus(like farmyard or blackbird)
Just a collection of sounds
I saw a few complaints of the app lacking default sounds. The default sounds are definitely there. There are three categories: soothing, background, interesting. When you select a category you'll pop pver to a new empty screen with a + icon at the top right. When you push the + icon you can "select from app library" or "select from your music library". When you choose "select from app library" you'll get a list of 10 sounds to choose from. 4/5 stars for not being more obvious for consumers.
