## Sony Reviews in Vereinigte Staaten

### ***-- "Few Features and Not Reliable"
Hearing aid status quit making sounds. Not as good as Silk hearing aids app, even though the device appears to be the same.
-- rondfranks, 2025-01-02

### *---- "Great hearing aids, awful app"
The app occasionally glitches, restarting usually means having to configure the hearing aids all over again. The battery level beeps don’t always work for some reason. You’re never sure if the volume/tone controls do anything. For $1k devices, there’s an expectation that the software should be pretty good, not just barely adequate. Sony, you need to do better.

A year later and it’s still buggy.
-- tommasz, 2024-12-29

### *---- "Garbage"
I have to repair the aids every time I want to use it and it still does t work.
-- JEE876654, 2024-12-18

### ***-- "Hearing Control App Needs Improvement"
Sony CRE-C20 hearing aids are nice high quality devices but the app needs improvement. The app apparently chooses one of 6 pre-defined profiles for the left and right HA based on the results of the hearing test in each ear. The app then provides adjustments for sound balance, volume and tone. There is no way to know which profile has been selected for each ear or to adjust the applied profile to improve speech understanding in noisy environments.

I would suggest incorporating the ability to apply speech understanding adjustments to the HA’s by the user once they have been set up by the app. Speech understanding in noisy environments is probably the number 1 complaint from hard of hearing people.

I’ve tried the Apple Airpod-2 hearing app and it performs much better for speech, conversation and television with airpods than the Sony app with my CRE-C20’s.
-- Owyhee1, 2024-11-30

### *---- "Battery life"
Right ear will not hold charge. Always dying after  an hour or so.  Also the volume on iPhone app will not work. Can’t turn down when in a loud environment-really hard on ears. Not recommending Sony hearing aids
-- susiemaryjones, 2024-11-29

### *---- "Great aids, terrible app"
This app works fine in setting up the aids but each time I go back to the app it dumps me out.  When I restart the app, it insists that I set up the aids all over again in spite of the fact that I sign in with my account.  So far, I haven’t found a way around this.  For Pete’s sake, fix this
-- JeanBru, 2024-11-12

### ***-- "Hearing aids are good,  app is terrible!"
Like the hearing aids, but controlling them through the app is a nightmare. They won’t stay connected  to my phone. Reconnection is hit or miss. Volume testing is difficult at best.
-- nmag0121, 2024-11-05

### *---- "Will not open when downloaded"
Downloaded to iPad, won’t download to iPhone.  Functions are useless without phone.
-- Nowadays39, 2024-10-31

### *---- "intensely frustrating"
every time there is an update it forces you to log onto sony anew and then set up the hearing aids as if they are new. really frustrating when you just wanted adjust the volume quickly
-- METAADMIN, 2024-10-26

### ***** "Update broke it"
I have had my C-10s for over a year and a half, and all was good. After the last update I now have to setup the aids every time I want to use the app. Including the hearing test. This of course makes the app useless.
-- Bremencole, 2024-10-25

### ***-- "Sony CRE-C20 Application"
App for Sony CRE-C20 Hearing Aids is lacking adjustments. Sony for as long as you have been in the sound business it is disappointing that you actually are proud of this application. I love my new Sony CRE-C20 hearing aids but your app needs help!
You should be embarrassed enough to want to fix this basic application. You made the hearing aids better now fix this problem with your application. So that we can adjust our hearing aids accordingly not just this basic B.S. that you provided!
Seriously Sony you have the means and the technology to really make a difference. So like Nike says  “Just Do It”
The 3 star rating is solely because of your current application.
-- Retiredparkranger, 2024-10-22

### ***-- "bad sync and reload profile after many week"
Incompatibility problem after ios18

The problem of losing the profile after a few weeks

No widget settings
-- Morijxjdj, 2024-10-13

### *---- "Was great until now"
These OTC hearing aids were great until sony upgraded the app. I used to be able to open the app and raise and lower the volume and tone. Now the app starts the setup process again and I just want to raise or lower the volume. Very frustrating!!!
-- j24mike, 2024-10-08

### **--- "Voice control messed up"
With this app on my phone voice recognition will NOT work. I consider that a major flaw and don’t understand why Sony can’t figure that out.  It was relatively easy to initially set up the hearing aides. I can’t give a review of the sound quality yet. Initially it’s very tinny. I haven’t set up an appointment with the audiologist yet but plan to in hopes of fine tuning the sound. I also haven’t been able to find the control that lets you adjust the sound to focus on a speaker close to you.
-- Mama rush 3, 2024-10-01

### *---- "Awful"
This has to be one of the worst apps I’ve ever used. 
I’ve always enjoyed Sony products, but I will be returning these due to the app.  It seems outdated by years.  Very few options.  There really isn’t any fine-tuning..
-- Is there any that isn’t taken?, 2024-09-19

### ***-- "CRE-C20 Sony Hearing Aids"
After much trial and error in setting up these hearing aids the app doesn’t have a Tinnitus setting. When I ordered these from Hear.Com that there is a Tinnitus masking setting for these hearing aids. I going to contact Sony to see if I was “sold a bill of goods”. I still have Miracle Ear Hearing Aid for about six years and the Tinnitus masking isn’t working very well that’s why I ordered the CRE-C20 hearing aids. There isn’t any streaming music through these hearing aids. There is definitely something wrong between app and the hearing aids!
-- Owlsrayne, 2024-09-10

### **--- "When you get logged out you can&#039;t control your hearing aids"
Who in their right mind thought it was a good idea to create a system where being logged out means you can&#039;t adjust your volume?

I&#039;m on a camping trip without service and when I open the app it wants me to authenticate again. 

So I spend the next several days unable to hear as well as I would like because someone brevet considered that connectivity might not be continuous?

These are not toys. You&#039;re not locking people out of Candy Crush. You&#039;re preventing people from hearing properly so you can collect data?

These are not a real solution until this is fixed.
-- mandated-nickname, 2024-09-08

### **--- "Not quite ready"
At least one app setting, spatial sensitivity, gets reset every time I recharge the hearing aids. Must in some way be my fault but I can’t find out how to increase one of the aid’s sound level relative to the other. Sony must think once they’ve been set up, everything is OK…
-- higonnet, 2024-09-07

### *---- "Forcing update midday"
Forcing update and re initializing mid day just to add more punitive phrases to the terms and conditions is tantamount to theft by conversation.
-- Tedsilver65, 2024-08-30

### **--- "Add an equalizer, please"
The fine tuning feature is laborious and rarely achieves what I want it to achieve. An EQ would go a long way. Giving the process a couple more days before I give up and return the aids.
-- BillyOK, 2024-08-21
