Thrive Hearing Control

Starkey Hearing Technologies

About this app

The Thrive Hearing Control app works seamlessly with sensor-enabled hearing aids to give you full control of your hearing. Change settings easily, adjust volume, create customized memories, and stream music or phone calls with the touch of a button.


The Thrive app gives you access to Healthable features like social engagement and activity tracking. You can set goals and your Engagement Score and Activity Score will track how close you are to meeting them daily. The Thrive app also offers information services like Thrive Assistant, Translate, Transcribe, and Self Check, which lets you check your hearing aid performance without an office visit.

And that’s just the beginning. Thrive also offers:


EDGE MODE
Industry-leading sound performance provides you with instantaneous adjustments for the most challenging listening situations.

REMOTE CONTROL
Easily adjust your hearing aid volume and change between memories created by you or your hearing professional.


PERSONALIZED MEMORIES
Create custom memories using manual and customizable sound adjustments. And geotag these memories so your hearing aids automatically adjust when returning to that location.


FALL DETECTION AND ALERTS
Designed to help you stay independent, falls can be detected, and alert messages sent to selected contacts.


ACTIVITY / ENGAGEMENT TRACKING
Track steps and other activity and set daily goals to inspire a healthy lifestyle. Monitor hearing aid use and social engagement and set daily goals to positively impact brain health.


THRIVE ASSISTANT
Ask questions about your hearing aids like, “how do I adjust volume?” or general questions like, “what’s the weather today?” and get quick answers.


TRANSLATE
This first-to-world feature helps you easily communicate with people who speak other languages.


THRIVE CARE COMPATIBLE
You can use the Thrive app to share helpful information like physical activity, hearing aid usage and social engagement with people you select who have the new Thrive Care app. This helps you maintain independence and provides peace of mind for the Thrive Care users you selected.


SELF CHECK
Allows you to perform a diagnostic test of your hearing aid components without having to make an office visit.


TRANSCRIBE
It’s like closed captioning for real life. Conversations are transcribed so you can read what's being said.


TELEHEAR™
Get help anywhere. Connect with your hearing professional by video call and obtain minor hearing aid adjustments directly to your hearing aids and smartphone.


FIND MY HEARING AIDS
Easily locate lost hearing aids. A signal detector sends a stronger or weaker signal based on how close you are to the location of the hearing aids.

AUDIO*
Enables carefree communication using your Android phone. Delivers superior sound and pristine audio streaming of any music or media played through your Android device.


The Thrive app works with hearing aids from Starkey, Audibel, NuEar, MicroTech and AGX® Hearing. These hearing aids must be purchased from a hearing professional. All features are not available on all hearing aid styles. Check with your hearing professional for details.

*Due to the large number of different Android phones and their capabilities with connecting and streaming audio to hearing aids, Starkey cannot guarantee full compatibility of this Thrive app with all phone models.

Ratings and reviews

It used to automatically chg to stream boost. It still does but not as often. NOW, all of sudden it either a) doesn't recognize the aids or b) the right side just stops working. One side will work for the phone, any streaming apps.. ONE HEARING AID WON'T WORK AT ALL. Have to restart my ph & it resets it (for a few hrs) GUYS HIRE AN APPROPRIATE SOFTWARE PERSON AND GET THESE BUGS FIXED! The idea of the app is great, but follow thru, not so much. PLEASE.

My starkey hearing aid works well, but the app was good. Until the other day. My hearing aids started sounding like a scrambled radio station or something. So I've went into it and had to redo consents. Then ok, it found my hearing aid but just spins when connecting. And never connects. I've even rebluetooth hear aid. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app again. And no change. Plz fix this

I love my hearing aids the app needs work. At first a I could stream music with pretty good sound. I was even able to change my steaming to suit my music,now it makes a temp that won't stay. Also the streaming is now static and can be heard by all through my hearing aids. Update as of August 26. Constantly disconnecting my hearing aids. Having to uninstall app several times to make it work.
