I got the Phonak Infinio Sphere! I visited the audiologist two days ago, but I noticed that the Spheric program isn’t showing in the MyPhonak app’s loud program. I have access to Target, so I’m trying to adjust the fitting myself. Where should I click to activate the Spheric program? Also, I’m concerned that my audiologist might find out if I made adjustments at home. If I connect the hearing aids to Target, will the audiologist be able to tell that I used it? Also , I realized that I can adjust to reduce background. Is it similar with target ? Or is target better to adjust than app?

I trialed 3 pairs of aids from a well known supplier, over a period of 2 years, each pair returned for refund, because I was never happy with the

This is why I prefer self programming. Much easier to do a direct comparison. I’m not in the market for Spheres, but it would be interesting to compare.

Exactly. What I am beginning to like in Target software is the possibility to listen to multiple sound samples immediately after making adjustments.

Oh interesting. I would actually prefer to have incoming calls ring on my phone rather than in my aids. It’s really annoying when I’m talking to someone in person and a call comes into my ears, interrupting the conversation in process. I don’t think I can change it on my Lumities but I wish I could.

Having the option to select ring in phone or ring in aids would be nice. My novas ring in my aids and that’s fine for me.
I’m not sure if the spheres could be set to do both. I wonder if there is an issue of phone compatibility. The spheres use one Bluetooth connection for phone & streaming and a separate connection for the app. Not sure if that’s why the phone rang but not the aids.

With the kind of wind you’re describing, I’d worry more about my golf game than I would about the wind block on my hearing aids. :wink: :woozy_face:

So I am restarting this thread as I started a new trial of Infinio Spheres with a different audiologist who was recommended via this forum and who seems very competent. However, I am having the same problem as before with incoming calls on my Motorola Edge 40 Neo. I don’t get any ring tone in the aids, only on the phone or on my watch. I tried disabling the watch without success. I can answer the call with the button on the aids and all works well thereafter. Any suggestions most welcome. My audiologist is going to contact Phonak. Having to change my phone would be a pain. Has anyone else experienced this with any Android phone?

To give more context. My previous aids, Phonak Nathos Novas, work perfectly with my phone. I hear the ring tone in my aids, not on the phone or watch. I tried connecting the aids to my wife’s Redmi phone and that also worked perfectly. So there seems to be an issue between the spheres and the Motorola edge 40 neo.

So I found the cause of the problem and a partial solution. I had the ring tone volume set to silent. This still allowed me to hear a ring tone through my Nathos Novas but not through the spheres. By upping the ring tone volume I can now hear it through the aids but also through the phone although only faintly as it’s on the minimum setting.

Glad you got it sorted. I have numerous Phonak and all ok them give me an a tone with incoming calls. I’ve never noted whether the Bluetooth volume is up or not. My ringtone on my Samsung phone is nearly always on silent. I find the Bluetooth works the same with my Marvel, Paradise and Lumity HAs

Thanks Peter. I’d like to keep my phone on silent but will settle for having it on quiet rather than shelling out for a new phone. The spheres are going to se me back £4k if I decide to keep them so prefer not to have to replace a perfectly good nearly new phone. After 24 hours of trialling the spheres I’m pleased with their performance but how they work in a group situation I am yet to test.

That’s the big situation. I’d have Sphere added as an additional programme, then you’ll find it easier to experiment with it in the app

Yes, I’ve done that. Will test at the golf club this weekend. But thus far I’m impressed with the clarity of sound I’m getting especially when listening to music through my system’s speakers.
