Hearing aids

If you have Made for iPhone hearing aids (compatible with iPad 4th generation or later and iPad mini), you can use iPad to adjust their settings, stream audio, or use iPad as a remote mic.

Pair with iPad. If your hearing aids aren’t listed in Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing Aids, you need to pair them with iPad. To start, open the battery door on each hearing aid. Next, on iPad, go to Settings > Bluetooth and make sure Bluetooth is turned on. Then go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing Aids. Close the battery doors on your hearing aids and wait until their name appears in the list of devices (this could take a minute). When the name appears, tap it and respond to the pairing request.

When pairing is finished, you hear a series of beeps and a tone, and a checkmark appears next to the hearing aids in the Devices list. Pairing can take as long as 60 seconds—don’t try to stream audio or otherwise use the hearing aids until pairing is finished.

You should only need to pair once (and your audiologist might do it for you). After that, each time you turn your hearing aids back on, they reconnect to iPad.

Adjust hearing aid settings and view status. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing Aids, or choose Hearing Aids from the Accessibility Shortcut. See Accessibility Shortcut on page 123. Hearing aid settings appear only after you pair your hearing aids with iPad.

For shortcut access from the Lock screen, go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing Aids > Control on Lock Screen. Use the settings to:

Check hearing aid battery status.

Adjust ambient microphone volume and equalization.

Choose which hearing aids (left, right, or both) receive streaming audio. Control Live Listen.

Stream audio to your hearing aids. Stream audio from Siri, Music, Videos, and more, by choosing your hearing aids from the AirPlay menu .

Use iPad as a remote microphone. You can use Live Listen to stream sound from the microphone in iPad to your hearing aids. This can help you hear better in some situations by positioning iPad nearer the sound source. Triple-click the Home button, choose Hearing Aids, then tap Start Live Listen.

Use your hearing aids with more than one iOS device. If you pair your hearing aid with more than one iOS device (both iPhone and iPad, for example), the connection for your hearing aids automatically switches from one to the other when you do something that generates audio on the other device, or when you receive a phone call on iPhone. Changes you make to hearing aid settings on one device are automatically sent to your other iOS devices. To take advantage of this, all of the devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network and signed into iCloud using the same Apple ID.

Mono audio and balance

Mono Audio combines the sound from the left and right channels into a mono signal played on both channels. This way you can hear everything with either ear, or through both ears with one channel set louder.

Turn Mono Audio on or off. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Mono Audio.

Adjust the balance. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility, then drag the Left Right Stereo Balance slider.
