Audio Streaming for Hearing Aids

[Lindsay2507]

Hello,

I have contacted Samsung support regarding direct audio streaming to a phone for my hearing aids. I have been advised that the Samsung GalaxyS23 & S24 are the only ones that this can done with. I asked about S20, S21 & S23 and I was advised no they do not support that streaming. When I have contacted the hearing aids provider they said the streaming works with Android 10 or above. I obtained a list and it said from S9 upwards the streaming should work via bluetooth. I have am S8 and it is Android 9, so that option is not available.

See below from my hearing aids app:

Can anyone who has an S20, S21 or S22 advise if this option is available on their phone please?  I think they can do it, but Samsung say they cannot. I am not prepared to pay for a S23 or S24, if audio streaming can be done on the S20, S21 or S23. Any feedback would be appreciated.  Thanks.

I went to my Audiologist, where I got my hearing aids from & she rang the technician, that what you pay, when getting your, hearing aids. It works for me, take care & let me know how you go,👍🏻💯

My FIL has an S21FE, and it supports direct audio it works with his hearing aid and cochlear. Unfortunately, the staff that sell them push for Apple devices as that is what they know and use.
