Tinnitus Balance
Free AppAbout Tinnitus Balance
Tinnitus is a condition that affects 10-15% of the adult population. There is a strong link between tinnitus and hearing loss. One in five people who live with tinnitus also experience hearing loss. Whilst there is no proven cure for tinnitus, there are many proven management strategies to help you manage your tinnitus. Central to many tinnitus management strategies is the use of sound. Sound is used in a therapeutic way to shift your attention away from your tinnitus. Progressive Tinnitus Management (PTM) is one such strategy developed by the US Veterans Administration.
The Phonak Tinnitus Balance app helps you manage your PTM sound plan. You can select sounds from your SmartPhone’s music library or there is a list of default sounds. You can rate the effectiveness of each sound in achieving its desired effect (soothing, background or interesting) and the overall ratings can be reviewed with your hearing care professional to reach your optimal sound plan. There is also a timer for use when falling asleep.
This app is intended to be part of a personalized tinnitus management program provided by a hearing care professional familiar with the diagnosis and management of tinnitus.

I have tinnitus. Mine is so bad that I wear Phonak hearing aids with a white noise generator. There's no white noise sound for this app. The concept is great in that you really want your brain to concentrate on another sound letting the tinnitus blend in rather than mask it.

But I don't believe this is a medical app. This is just a music player with some sounds in library. The sounds in library are not designed to hide tinnitus with minimum possible volume and the shuffle is not gapless. Some sounds in the library are very loud for comfort(like station) and some have their own audible background static that replace tinnitus(like farmyard or blackbird)

The recordings are very nice, however the loops are too short; feels like groundhog day. The sense of deja vous came to me by the second loop. That accounts for the minus one star. The other minus is for the very noticeable gap or audio dropout between loops. If the gaps are unavoidable because of the API, I suggest that you gracefully fade out and fade in between loops. The user interface is very nice and thoughtful.

Good quality app. Suggest make a night mode so the all white don't fry my eyes when I use it at night (which is when you need it)
