11. An device comprising:
-
a transceiver configurable to communicate with a hearing aid through a wireless communication channel; an input interface for receiving user input; a processor coupled to the transceiver and to the input interface; and a memory configured to store a plurality of hearing aid profiles executable by a digital signal processor of the hearing aid to shape audio signals to compensate for a user'"'"'s hearing deficiency, the memory accessible to the processor and configured to store instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to; receive a user input indicating a selection of one of the plurality of hearing aid profiles; retrieve a selected hearing aid profile of the plurality of hearing aid profiles in response to the user input; and transmit the selected hearing aid profile to the hearing aid via the transceiver to alter operation of the hearing aid. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
