MFi Hearing Devices are a type of hearing aid that is designed to work with Apple devices like iPhones and iPads. They use the Made for iPhone (MFi) protocol, which allows them to connect directly to Apple products via Bluetooth. The MFi Hearing Devices allow users to hear phone calls, audio playback, and other sound sources through their hearing aids. To use an MFi Hearing Device with your iPhone, you need to pair the device with your phone in Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing Aids. You will also need a compatible hearing aid or cochlear implant processor from an approved manufacturer. Once paired, you can adjust volume and settings within your phone’s accessibility settings or through the app associated with your hearing aids.

Is MFi the same as Bluetooth?
No, MFi is not the same as Bluetooth. MFi stands for “Made for iPod/iPhone/iPad” and is a certification program created by Apple to ensure that electronic accessories are compatible with their products. These accessories include speakers, docks, cables, and more. Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard used to exchange data over short distances. While both technologies have similar functions of connecting devices wirelessly, they are not the same and are used in different ways.
How do I stop my iPhone from listening to everything?
To stop your iPhone from listening to everything, you can take the following steps:
1. Go to your iPhone’s Settings and select Privacy.
2. Select Microphone in the list of options.
3. From here, you will be able to see a list of all apps that have requested access to your microphone.
4. Turn off the toggle switch next to any app you do not want using your microphone anymore.
5. You may also want to go into Siri & Search and turn off Listen for “Hey Siri” if it is enabled, as this feature uses the microphone when activated by saying “Hey Siri” aloud or when someone else says it near your phone while it is unlocked and awake (this will prevent your phone from randomly activating).
6. For added security, consider revoking access to other apps that have access to personal information such as contacts, photos, etc., in order to help protect against malicious software or hacked accounts gaining access through these apps on your device.

Why is my hearing aid not connecting to my iPhone?
That is certainly a frustrating situation. I’m sorry to hear that you’re having difficulty with your hearing aid and iPhone connection. To troubleshoot this issue, I recommend trying the following steps:
1) Make sure that your hearing aid is in pairing mode. Depending on the type of hearing aid you have, there may be a button or switch that needs to be activated in order for the device to pair correctly with your iPhone.
2) Check if there are any updates available for either device (your hearing aid and/or your iPhone). If so, make sure to update both devices before attempting to reconnect them.
3) Make sure that both devices are within range of each other when attempting to connect them. A distance of 10 feet or less usually works best for establishing a Bluetooth connection between two devices.
4) Restart both devices and try connecting again.
If none of these steps solve the issue, please contact our customer service team at [phone number] or [email address]. We’ll be happy to help you get your hearing aid connected to your iPhone as soon as possible!
