ReSound Hearing Aids
Hearing loss is a common contributor to tinnitus. Tinnitus typically manifests as a ringing, buzzing, or clicking in the ear without an external source. Many people with hearing loss experience tinnitus symptoms but struggle to find effective ways to treat their tinnitus. Finding effective tinnitus relief can be difficult. Fortunately, technology for tinnitus and hearing devices continue to raise the bar.
ReSound has emerged as one of the top hearing aid manufacturers for people with tinnitus. They were the first company to have hearing aids that connect to the iPhone. At Sound Relief, our audiologists offer several styles and technology levels of ReSound hearing aids. Small, powerful, and easy to use, ReSound devices provide a brilliant sound experience with rich and full layers of sounds. Plus, to ensure exceptional convenience, they sync with your smartphone and can be customized and fine-tuned through the corresponding app.
However, what truly sets ReSound apart is its ReSound Relief app. This app offers a potent combination of sound therapy, relaxation exercises, meditation, and guidance, all of which can be streamed to your wireless hearing aid. Their tinnitus masking feature even allows those with tinnitus to make their own soundscapes, which, in combination with sound therapy, can be a powerful source of tinnitus relief at your fingertips.
To take advantage of these features, you’ll need to download the ReSound relief app and have Bluetooth-enabled speakers. Powered by state-of-the-art technology, including a new chip platform and the longest battery life available, ReSound hearing aids are a popular option for those looking for tinnitus relief.

The ReSound Smart 3D App
The ReSound app converts your smartphone into a remote control for your hearing aids. You can instantly and wirelessly adjust the details of your sound experience – including the volume, pitch, and program – using the app, which is compatible with Apple and Android mobile devices. All of the following features are included:
One-Tap Access
Everything you need for a quick adjustment is located on the start screen, so you won’t waste any time fine-tuning your hearing devices on the go.
Tinnitus Management
Do you suffer from tinnitus? The ReSound app might be an option for you. As mentioned, it offers users relief from tinnitus with soothing background sounds that can distract you from the constant buzzing or hum in your ears. You can use their pre-set soundscapes or import your own favorite relief music to mix with calming sounds like pink noise or ocean surf. Customize these unique soundscapes to suit your needs even further with the ReSound Relief App with the help of your doctor.
Personalized Settings
Every case of hearing loss or tinnitus is unique. ReSound’s technology allows you to customize your experience so that you can focus on the sounds that matter to you: conversations with family, the laughter of a friend, music playing, birds chirping, and so much more. You can create and save your favorite settings so that they’re easy to put into action.
Remote Fine-Tuning
If you need assistance adjusting your ReSound hearing aid, you can send a request to your audiologist through the app. You will answer a few short questions to describe your experience. Your audiologist will then use this information to send a new setting through the app.
Geotagging
As you go about your day, the app will save your favorite settings at frequented locations. When you return to those locations later, the app will automatically switch to your preferred settings. For example, when you walk into the office or the gym, the app will know and automatically adjust to the settings you favor in those locations.
Track Your Devices
With the ReSound app, you’ll never lose your hearing instruments again. With its “Find My Hearing Aid” function, the app connects to your devices and tracks them so that you can see where they’re located on a digital map.
Check the Battery
You can check the battery power of your rechargeable hearing devices through the app. When recharging the devices, the app will alert you once the devices are fully charged and ready to use.
