The mission of AfterShokz is to make working out safer, but they’ve also cultivated a strong hearing-impaired community. Why? Because the bone conduction technology can benefit individuals who may have damaged eardrums, but healthy cochlea’s.

Also great for those who have sensitive ears and don’t like to shove tiny headphones in their ear canals. All the great functions of Bluetooth earbuds made more accessible for a broader audience.

These headphones are not hearing aids, but they can be used to assist with hearing when used in conjunction with a hearing aid app like Petralex. Petralex and other similar apps use the mic on your device to pick up surrounding sounds and transmit it through the headphones.
