I had a brief episode today of my right aid disconnecting, effectively turning itself off. I discovered this while streaming something off my Iphone and only hearing audio on the left. I then checked accessibility settings on my Iphone and it showed both connected. I doublechecked the wax filter and dome. Nothing. Next I checked the Oticon app, which said the right one was disconnected. I was able to use the down/up volume buttons during this episode and could hear the tone in both aids, but neither action had any effect on the output of the right hearing aid.
Next step: I put the aid into the charger for a few minutes, then returned it to my ear. All was fine, it showed connected via IPhone settings, and the Oticon App took a second but said it was connected. Final test was to listen again to a streaming audio off my Iphone. All was back to normal.
Hey @Oticon corporate people: I’d like to think this is an aberration on a unit about 3.5 weeks into its test period. It sure better be. I’ll be alerting your purported customer customer service line in the morning and making a note of the issue with my audiologist.
With kindest personal regards, I remain, sincerely, etc.
Have any other early adopters of the Intent hearing aid experience this?
