Question

What Updates Have Been Made to the Thrive App?  

Answer

The Thrive Hearing Control app has been updated for a more helpful, seamless, and confident user experience.  Edge Mode is now available in the top three technology tiers of Evolv AI, and an Edge Mode button has been added to the home screen of the app to make the feature easy to access.  It puts the power of artificial intelligence at the patient's fingertips to optimize hearing in, particularly challenging environments.  The Fall Alert feature has also been expanded across all technology tiers and styles of the Evolv AI 2.4 GHz wireless devices with enhanced accuracy, so now more people than ever will be able to benefit from this potentially lifesaving feature.  And finally, the Thrive app now includes more intuitive language for easier understanding and use of the Wellness Score and the Fall Alert features.
