Hearing & Empowered: Embrace The Season With Gusto

19-00471_-_internal_ag_june2019_blog-post-1_final_675x380

Nothing says “Summertime, here we come!” like hitting the road, rails, trails, and friendly skies to make new memories with loved ones far and nearby. Whether having some local fun or taking a trip, here are six ways your hearing technology can help you dive in.


LOOK FOR THE LOOP

Touring a new city? Some sites “” museums, theaters, houses of worship, and more “” may have installed a hearing loop, letting you receive enhanced audio by wirelessly connecting through the T-coil setting on your hearing aid, if it has been enabled. Look for the hearing-loop logo at participating spots.

“CACHE” UP ON AI

The future is here with artificial intelligence at your ears! You can monitor your physical and mental well-being with the AGXS liv and its Thrive app. Some devices and apps even have a translation feature, letting you communicate with others even if you don’t know their local language.  

CHARGE INTO SOME FUN

What’s worse than dead batteries? Not having spares when in need. Rather than worry about keeping extras on hand, consider the convenience of rechargeability. With many manufacturers offering rechargeable technology, you can live it up with the confidence of all-day hearing aid power.  

TUNE UP FOR TUNES

Hearing tech is optimized for speech, but if live music is on your mind, we can nudge your settings to help you enjoy tunes without compromising how you hear speech. With some hearing aids, we can even make minor adjustments remotely via the Thrive app!  

BOOKMARK YOUR FAVES

Through selected apps, you can “bookmark” or geotag your hearing aid settings to your favorite locations “” a happy-hour hangout, the gym, or a golfing spot, for example “” so that the app automatically adjusts your technology to your listening preferences for that venue.


Make it a summer to remember with hearing technology that has your back every step of the way. For more on optimizing your devices or to experience a demo of the latest hearing aids, schedule a consultation with our expert team today!

Everyone at the office was friendly and polite. Sandy the rep who did my hearing test was beyond caring and helpful. She took a lot of time helping me choose the hearing aids that would use my insurance benefits and not have a copay! I highly recommend this provider.

The audiologist was just exceptional. Our first visit with them and all our questions were answered. My 89 year old mom was so shocked when she could finally talk in a normal voice and hear everything. So awesome.

I was treated with great kindness. Though I don't believe that the employees here are family members they act as if they were a well run private Family company. And the Dr performing the hearing tests was extremely helpful in telling me everything that was going to happen performing the test and then showing me my options based on the results of the test.I strongly recommend the Longhorn Hearing company
