Pros and cons of PETRALEX: HEARING AID APP app for iPhone and iPad

PETRALEX: HEARING AID APP app good for

The best Ive heard. Well done. May be room for improvement, including settings for tennitus, But Im pretty impressed with this product.
This App lets you test your hearing, allowing you to create different hearing profiles so that you can then use the App as a hearing aid in different environments. Sensible and wonderful. I can now hear without spending thousands (which I dont have) on hearing aids. Thank you very much for your great work. Peter
I tried many hearing applications but the latency was unacceptable. This is the only app that works in that regard. Being able to set up unique profiles in different soundscapes makes this a winner.

Some bad moments

Im 70% deaf in my left ear and 50% deaf in my right. I think its pretty cool once you figure out the advanced settings.
When I try to start test a pop up appears telling me to set earphone to max volume. I do so and click OK then try to start. Then the pop-up reappears, ad infinitum!!! I have requested help from the app writers.
How do you turn it off? Had a fan running on low & TV on, I could hear the fan more than the TV :( Tried it out at a restaurant but it increased the background noises more than the voices of the people I was sitting with, am I doing something wrong here? When I was finished using it, I couldnt find how to turn it off, so I closed the app, maybe thats how its supposed to be turned off, idk.
Its really awesome how you can save profiles for different conditions in car, outside, the quiet of 3am or when the quiet is interrupted by the deaf ladies TV downstairs. Just take hearing test during what ever condition of ambient noise and your adjusted for best possible hearing for that exact condition. And it stays running never shuts off. Even when you move to work with another app. So yes you can spy just shut phone off and screens black but not the volume.
The hearing test works well, just like at the audiologist. And once youve created your profiles (quiet, or TV, etc) use the dial to increase the volume. Also be sure to use the slider on your screen to go from earphones to mic icons when you want to talk so your mic doesnt pick up your own speech
Great audio ... And what a great way to provide loop output for those without hearing aid with telecoils. Bravo!
