Do you manage your hearing aids from your phone but wish you could do it from your desk instead? Bernafon EasyControl-A brings hearing aid control for desktop use, letting you adjust volume, switch listening modes, and monitor battery levels without reaching for a mobile device. The app works with all Bernafon wireless hearing aids using 2.4 GHz technology, giving you a larger screen and keyboard input for easier adjustments during your workday.
Running Bernafon EasyControl-A on a PC changes how you interact with your hearing aids throughout the day. Instead of fumbling with a phone, you get a full desktop interface that stays visible alongside your other open windows (email, web browser, video calls) all while keeping your hearing aids within reach of control. This guide covers what the app does on Windows and how to get it set up.
Core Controls at Your Desktop
Bernafon EasyControl-A lets you adjust volume independently for your left and right hearing aids, choose listening programs tailored to different environments, and access a real-time battery indicator so you know when a charge is needed. The app also includes tinnitus relief sound controls if your hearing aids support that feature. On a PC, these controls sit right in front of you during work or home tasks, eliminating the need to pull out your phone every time you want to fine-tune your hearing.
Finding Your Hearing Aids and Staying Connected
A built-in search feature helps locate a hearing aid if you misplace it, particularly useful when you're sitting at a desk and can't easily retrace your steps. The app sends low battery notifications to keep you from running out of power unexpectedly. Connection stability has been a concern for some users across devices; a desktop installation may provide more consistent pairing than relying on a phone, especially if you keep your PC in one location with stable Bluetooth coverage.
Additional Features and Integrations
Bernafon EasyControl-A supports a remote or partner microphone via the SoundClip-A accessory, allowing you to pick up speech from across a room. The app also includes advice on adjusting to hearing loss and links to full user instructions. Some users have mentioned difficulty with audio streaming from Android devices, though the app itself handles the core control functions reliably. A persistent notification keeps the app running in the background, which ensures your hearing aids stay accessible but may be noticeable in your system tray.
Desktop Workflow Benefits
Having Bernafon EasyControl-A open on your computer giving you the ability to adjust your hearing aids without breaking focus from work or leisure activities. The app maintains an event log of changes you make, helpful for tracking which programs you use most often or troubleshooting connectivity. For anyone who spends hours at a desk, a Windows PC installation of Bernafon EasyControl-A keeps hearing aid management within arm's reach.

FAQ
Can I use Bernafon EasyControl-A on Windows and Android at the same time?
The app works with both platforms, but some users have reported that hearing aids do not sync simultaneously to multiple devices. You may need to re-pair when switching between your phone and PC, or keep one device as your primary control point.
Why won't my hearing aids connect to the app?
Connection issues are the most common complaint. Ensure your hearing aids and PC both support Bluetooth 2.4 GHz, that Bluetooth is enabled on your computer, and that the app has permission to access your device's Bluetooth settings. If the connection is unstable, try unpairing and re-pairing the hearing aids through your system settings before opening the app again.
Does the app let me stream music or calls directly to my hearing aids?
The app handles volume and program control but does not include streaming audio from your PC to the hearing aids. That feature depends on your specific hearing aid model's hardware capabilities, not the app itself.
What should I do if the app keeps stopping or losing connection?
Uninstall and reinstall the app, and check that your PC's Bluetooth drivers are up to date. Ensure no other Bluetooth devices nearby are interfering, and keep your hearing aids and computer close together during initial pairing. Persistent connection problems may require contacting Bernafon support.
Is there a way to close the persistent notification?
The app runs a persistent background notification to keep your hearing aids connected. This cannot be disabled without closing the app entirely, though you can minimize the notification bar on most Windows systems.
