What you need

  • A tinnitus care plan from a participating audiology clinic.
  • An iPhone or iPad, or an Android phone.

Good to know

  • The App Store says most plans give about 12 months of access. Some give lifetime access.
  • The listing says the app is self-guided wellbeing content. It does not diagnose and does not replace professional care.
  • The App Store lists one in-app purchase, 90 Day Tinnitus Tune Out, at $137.99.
  • Ask any clinic if it takes part. This page does not say which clinics do.

This guide is general information. It does not diagnose hearing loss and it does not replace a hearing evaluation. An app cannot tell you why you hear less. An audiologist can.
