How to pair your hearing aids with an Android™ device using Fast Pair
Before you start
1
Oticon hearing aids can pair directly to selected Android phones and tablets. Pairing the hearing aids and installing the Oticon Companion app on your device allows you to adjust the sound.
Oticon hearing aids can also enable you to stream music and audio to your hearing aids from Android. To do this directly, your Android device must support Bluetooth® LE Audio or Audio Streaming for Hearing Aids (ASHA). Select Android phones with Bluetooth LE Audio can also enable you to have hands-free calls. If your device does not support LE Audio or ASHA technology, you will need an accessory such as ConnectClip or Easy LE Adapter to enable audio streaming from your hearing aids.
Fast Pair is a Bluetooth pairing service developed by Google that simplifies connecting Bluetooth LE Audio-enabled Android devices and enables transferring pairing information to other Bluetooth LE Audio devices signed in with the same Google account.
