How smart are hearing aids?

Sometimes seniors need a hearing aids and they want to know how they can use them with their other devices. We've come a long way with hearing aid technology, and now the amplification of the hearing aid changes as you move. Additionally, some hearing aids can be paired via Bluetooth with mobile devices to hear them better. And some can even remember the audio settings of your location, so that when you are out at a restaurant, the hearing settings adjust so you can hear better.
Hearing aids have really become smart devices. Checkout StarkeyResound, and Bragi. These companies are looking at hearing aides more as wearable computers. Go to an audiologist, who will not only do a hearing test, but will custom tune the devices to his hearing based on a complex algorithm from his tests.
Whist is an app for Tinnitus which can help train your hearing to ignore the condition.
