Needs a lot of work Adequate is probably the best description as to the effectiveness of the Thrive app. It randomly can't find my hearing aids (despite them being next to the 'phone). Volume conrol sometimes only works on one ( but I can control both manually). Other ad hoc bizzare behaviour necessitating uninstalling the app, downloading again and re-setting. Usually works for a few weeks until something else goes wrong...then repeat process. App needs some serious work to bring it to an acceptable, functional level!

Plastic earmolds are like rocks in your ears First time hearing aid user (3 months). Hearing loss is mild to moderate in high ranges. Luckily I can get by with using the domes (earbuds) only because the hard plastic earmolds are like putting rocks in your ears. I will never wear them! Hearing aid specialist even ground them down some, but they are too uncomfortable to wear. Need a better material than hard plastic.

Really disappointed with these hearing… Really disappointed with these hearing aids, I was very strongly advised by the audiologist that I would vastly prefer private aids over NHS. What a mistake, the NHS ones are much preferable. A very expensive mistake. The Starkey aids also turn themselves off if I fall asleep, rubbish if you are waiting for the door bell to ring.

Bluetooth connectivity is spotty even… Bluetooth connectivity is spotty even with the new Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. No notification of messages or phone calls are announced in the hearing aids. Placing the phone in a pants pocket effectively disconnects the Bluetooth. Still can't connect them via Bluetooth to other devices, such as the 2022 Sony TV we just bought.

What a waste of money What a waste of money. I have the AI Livio and still paying for it but what a disappointment. The connection with the iPhone keeps dropping - I bought especially an iPhone 13 because I’ve read of others having issues with Android. While watching tv or listening to music suddenly disconnects. In the recent days keeps turning off by itself and cannot turn it on. I keep recharging it but after that it doesn’t turn on as it should. The memories I created for particular environments are on for a few minutes but then it resets to Normal. So frustrating!
