Apple Airpods 2 Pro as hearing aids

Thanks for not letting me down . . . I was surprised it took 16 posts.

I was beginning to think nobody got it…..

The joke really fell on deaf ears.

On the downside, the silicone ear tips don't want to stay in my ears. I found out last night that when I yawned the one on the right pops out. By noon today, both wanted to fall out of my ears. Ear tips made of other materials are available and I'll definitely ry some out.

I occasionally have that problem with mine. I used these foam tips when I was on a tractor regularly, and they worked pretty well:

I don’t recall exactly why I went back to the Apple silicone tips, but they (the stock Apple tips) generally work pretty well for me, except for the occasional popping out.

If you haven’t tried it yet do the eartips fit test in the app. Should be 3 different sizes in the box.

Interesting thought. My grandfather had bad hearing but never bought hearing aids. When conversations were going on, he would cup his hand behind his ear to hear what we were saying. By contrast, my wife's father was very soft speaking, but when my grandfather and him got together, my grandfather never had to cup his hand behind his ear. I guess my father-in-law's voice frequency was such that Grandpa could hear him just fine.

That can certainly be true. My hearing at low frequencies is bad but almost non-existent at the higher frequencies. Starting at the pitch of my wife's voice....

Since this is in type maybe you should have used blurry letters?

I wear hearing aids and they are such a rip off. I hate that they take advantage of the elderly. No, I don't think of myself as elderly but still.
