SOMERSET, NJ December 9– Oticon, Inc. has introduced a new app that will enable people who use Oticon wireless hearing instruments to connect to smartphones, tablets and other devices powered by the Android™ mobile operating system. When the new ConnectLine App for Android is paired with the Streamer Pro, Oticon hearing instrument users can discreetly control listening programs, volume and input source with just a touch of their fingertips. The free app is available for download on Google Play™.
The ConnectLine App connects with Oticon hearing solutions through the Streamer Pro to deliver intuitive functionality that enables users to switch to a variety of listening programs and sources with just a few taps. Volume can be adjusted individually for each entertainment or communication device - in advance or in the moment. Users can move seamlessly from listening to music to enjoying phone calls and video chats. They can also connect to the entire integrated ConnectLine system which allows them to stream audio from TV, landline phones, personal microphones and more directly to their hearing devices.
