How to pair ReSound hearing aids

ReSound hearing aids are built to integrate seamlessly into your connected life—whether you’re taking a call, watching a film, or joining a video meeting. With Bluetooth Low Energy technology and intuitive design, ReSound makes it simple to connect your hearing aids to a wide range of devices, including smartphones, TVs, and computers.

To get started, it’s important to understand how to put ReSound hearing aids in pairing mode. Simply open and close the battery doors (for non-rechargeable models), or press and hold the button on the hearing aid for five seconds (for rechargeable models). This activates pairing mode for about three minutes—during which the devices are discoverable by nearby electronics.

How to pair ReSound hearing aids to iPhone

With iOS, ReSound supports Made for iPhone (MFi) functionality for direct streaming and control. Here’s how to connect:

Open your iPhone’s Settings and go to Accessibility > Hearing Devices
Make sure Bluetooth is turned on
Put your hearing aids in pairing mode
Your iPhone will detect the hearing aids—select them to complete the pairing
Confirm the connection when prompted

Once connected, you can stream calls, music, and audio directly to your hearing aids, and manage settings via the ReSound Smart 3D app for iOS.

If you’re wondering how to connect ReSound hearing aids to iPhone, the terms “pair” and “connect” are often used interchangeably. However, “pairing” is the initial step that establishes the connection—after that, your iPhone should automatically connect to the hearing aids each time they’re turned on and within range.
