    *Full streaming compatibility with Android™ devices requires minimum Android™ v10 and Bluetooth 5.0 and that functionality has been enabled by the phone manufacturer and service carrier. Accordingly, the compatibility information provided should be used for reference only. Although Beltone strives to achieve seamless device compatibilities, Beltone cannot guarantee full compatibility with all Android™ devices.

    If direct Android™ streaming is not supported by your clients' hearing aids or Android™ smartphone, they can use the Beltone Phone Link2 to stream sound. The Beltone Phone Link2 enables them to connect their Beltone hearing aids to any Bluetooth v.2.0 Android™ device.
