Ratings and reviews

I'm actually pleasantly surprised. I received my new Samba 2 today (thank you as ever Rachel in Manchester!) and found the app really easy to configure. However, one less star because no matter what my volume is set to when setting the interface's volume the phone's volume is reported as being too high. I'm using a Xaiomi MI. Footnote: I'll certainly change to 5/5 if the issue is addressed. Post footnote: restarting fixed the issue!

I have a Bonebridge. My audiologist provided a QR code to pair my hearing aid to the app. Somewhere along the way the app disconnected the HA and I cannot reconnect it. I have tried the manual setup multiple times and including uninstalling and reinstalling the app and no luck.

There needs to be an update to add speech enhancement feature. The app is incredibly basic! Its bare bones minimum. Its a shame that its known is this or nothing. Folks with hearing Medel hearing aids using a high school level built app because its literally the only one out there is sad.
