Does this product exist?

A microphone that you can connect via Bluetooth to any BT speaker or receiver (like a hearing aid) to make that speaker into a sort of PA system?

It seems so obvious that this should exist. But searching I seem to only find these stupid LLM generated articles, and microphones sold with its own speaker or its own receiver that you need to plug in to an aux input. Am I being stupid?

@WuMing2 Ah OK - sorry but that wasn't clear.
My only experience is with the standard NHS Oticon device so there's little else that I can help you with.
My aids have an app but this is optional, the programming is done by an audiologist in person using the Oticon software at the clinic. Setting the aids up, and regular review of those settings is vital.

I don't know if re-asking the question using the hashtags #hearingLoss and #hearingAid might be more helpful.

I I wish your family well and I'm sorry I can't help more

I purchased the #Apple #AirPodPro 2.

My phone is running iOS 18.1 - but I can’t find the #hearingtest or #hearingaid feature.

My AirPods are running on the latest firmware which features the hearing aid test etc

I think it’s just not a feature available to #Australia

Sigh AUS$399 down the drain
