In the Summer of 2016, Oticon released their Made for iPhone hearing aid, called the Oticon OPN. In addition to connecting to phone calls, music and hearing aid adjustments via the iPhone, the Oticon OPN has provided listeners with increased hearing ability in noise. Compared to their previous premium device  – the Alta 2 Pro, the Oticon OPN gives patients “20% less listening effort – reducing the load on the brain in noisy environments,  20% more capacity to remember – freeing up mental resources, enabling the user to recall more in noisy environments and 30% better speech understanding – even in the most noisy environments, without suppressing surrounding sounds through narrow directionality.”

This ability coupled with direct iPhone streaming has proven beneficial for patients.
