Navigating the Devices Menu

The Eargo app “Devices” menu gives you information about your Charger(s) and Hearing devices, displays the shipping status for any replacement device(s) that have been requested, and allows you to add or connect replacement components once received. See which Charger is connected to the app. If there are any Software Updates, an orange badge icon will appear next to the item. You can also check the details for any Eargo 5, 6, & 7 hearing device with the Get Device Info tool or revert your Eargos back to their Factory Preset Programs when desired.


Charger Details Screen

You can tap on a Charger to access its details screen.

Each individual Charger has its own Name, Bluetooth ID, and Serial Number.

You can change the name of a Charger by tapping “Name.” If you choose a new name, it must contain the final 4 characters of the serial number, for easy identification.

You can tap Troubleshooting to reach the Eargo helper bot.

If a Software Update is available for your Charger, you will see it here. Tap to apply it. To learn more about Software Updates, click here.


Hearing Device Details Screen

You can tap on the Left or Right hearing device to access its Hearing Device Details screen.

Each individual hearing device is listed with its unique Serial Number.

You can tap Troubleshooting to reach the Eargo Helper bot.

If a Software Update is available for your devices, you will see it here. Tap to apply it. To learn more about Software Updates, click here.

Using the Get Device Info Tool

If you have more than one Eargo 5, 6, or 7 system and your Hearing Devices become mixed up, tap on “Get Device Info.” to help iron out the details. The mobile app will help to identify and confirm the serial number and the side assigned (e.g. left or right) to any Eargo 5, 6, or 7 device. To start, place a single Eargo device into your Charger and secure the lid. When the mobile app identifies your Charger with the blue LED, select “Connect.” If detected successfully, the app will display the device details and automatically share them with Eargo Support. Tap on “Try Again” to check another Hearing Device or “Finish” to return to the home screen.


Revert to Factory Presets

“Revert to Factory Presets" will allow you to restore your Eargos back to the four Preset programs they’re shipped with. When reverting to Preset programs, all personalized device settings will be lost.

Amplification, especially for speech, will increase as you go from Preset 1 to Preset 4. After reverting to Preset programs, we recommend you spend some time in each setting and select, for each ear, the one that is most comfortable for you when listening to speech in quiet conditions. You can designate your selection as the baseline or favorite when you edit your programs. Once selected, you’ll have access to additional environmental settings like Restaurant and Phone. These will use your selected favorite Preset program as their baseline.

Alternatively, you may take Sound Match to fully personalize your devices. Click here to learn more.

You can access the Revert to Factory Presets feature in the mobile app’s Devices menu anytime.
