Two apps for WIDEX EVOKE™

With EVOKE you can use one of two types of apps to control your hearing aids from your Android and Apple devices.

The TONELINK app covers key functions like changing programs, while the EVOKE app also features SoundSense Learn, which guides you to personalized hearing.

What is SoundSense Learn?
- SoundSense Learn optimizes your hearing experience in a given sound environment. Whenever you encounter sound environments where you would like to optimize the sound, go to SoundSense Learn and follow the simple instructions.
  Compare two different sound profiles, indicate which one you like more, and then let SoundSense Learn calculate your preference. The more comparisons you do, the more SoundSense Learn will learn about your preferences. You can then save the settings as a program and use them whenever you would like.
  Please note that SoundSense Learn is exclusively available on selected Evoke hearing aids (440, 330, 220).
How do I delete personal programs?
- Select “Sound menu”, then press the icon in the top-right corner which takes you to the edit menu. Click on "Delete program", and you will be asked to confirm this action.
Can I stream sound from my Android phone directly to m hearing aids?
- Not at this time. We recommend using the COM-DEX solution to stream to both ears with an Android phone.
Why is it that my Android phone dies not connect to both of my hearing aids, and the connection does not seem stable?
- Your phone probably does not fully comply with the Android Bluetooth LE protocol. Please check the Widex Evoke app compatibility list for phone models supported, or check with your hearing care professional.
Why does the streaming experience differ when using different music or video streaming apps?
- When streaming music or video, the traveling of data can be affected by many factors in the entire wireless network. Often, poor internet connection or streaming high-definition data can cause interruptions to your listening experience.
How do I turn off notification sounds from other apps (e.g. Gmail, Facebook)?
- The hearing aids play all the sounds that the iOS tells them to stream. Refer to your iPhone and/or the individual app settings to disable sounds generated by other apps. Go to Settings > Notifications or Settings > Sounds, to configure your preferences.
Can I control my default streaming to my car's Bluetooth system?
- No. The iPhone (iOS) decides the default routing of the audio streaming automatically and currently does not provide a setting for users to change the default.
How do I see which version of hearing aid firmware I'm using?
- On the app home screen, press the Menu icon in the top left corner and then select “About". The firmware version is listed here.
Why are you asking to access my camera and photos?
- The app would like to access your photos and camera to allow you to personalize programs by adding your own photos.
Why are you asking to use my location?
- The app would like to access your location to allow you to define locations where programs are automatically activated and to enable the Find my hearing aids feature.
Why can't I use "Find my hearing aids"?
- You may not have given permission to the app to access your location. Go to: Settings > scroll down to the Evoke app > Location > select Always Or: You may have disabled Location Services altogether. Go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services and enable Location Services.
