Pro fit installation was offered from inside the updated Inspire app.

It mentioned something about an office system needs to be installed.

Nothing in the updated app jumped out at me. No performance (firmware) update was offered for my evolv . After reading the link @pvc offered, there really shouldn’t be anything for my use.

Yep, I just saw Pro Fit download offered after installing Inspire 2023.

There may be some shenanigans going on here.

  1. The new PatientBase may require an account login for using the new standalone database.
  2. or use of Noah/Noah 4 professional database system which also requires a logon to Noah.

It appears that if you take new updates then you get directed into (one or the other of the above two choices). Though, I will do some more testing.

ETA: To be clear; DIYers will always be using a standalone database and never using Noah office system, currently Noah 4.

I don’t know about shenanigans, seemed straight forward.

Launch PatientBase, it will then ask if you want Inspire or Pro Fit to launch, then pick the patient. Easy peasy.

If you pick Pro Fit and you are connected to Evolv , it will say in so many words - no can do, should I launch Inspire?

I don’t see why a programming device is even necessary. Bluetooth is common on , use the existing interface found in darn near every computer, phone, and tablet manufactured in the last decade.

That would be exciting news if the industry removed that programming device standard.

Noahlink - yawn.

It has to do with the amount of energy required, and the hearing aids being so small that it’s difficult to get them plugged into the wall socket. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I’ll press the believe button if you say so. The are running on their own battery in either use case. I have many pieces of tech that will program over bluetooth, it’s very common.

I haven’t broken out my spectrum analyzer or oscilloscope to see what the Noahlink is doing. My guess is it just a adapter hardcoded into programming software.

Solves problems with people who are still running 12 year old computers, but could be unnecessary with modern equipment.

Welcome to the forum, sure but which version do you need, inspire or profit, what models are you trying to program, you’ll need patient base as well.
