The instructions for listening to audio through your hearing aids depend on the device you are streaming it from, and on your hearing aid model.
Our most recent behind-the-ear style hearing aids can stream music or audio directly from iPhone® and iPad®, and from Android™ phones and tablets that support Audio Streaming for Hearing Aids (ASHA).
To listen to music from other devices, or with older Philips hearing aids, you need to use a Philips AudioClip.

Philips hearing aids have a dedicated program for music that is carefully designed to ensure you hear music in the highest quality possible. Ask your hearing care professional to set up the program for you. Then simply select the HiFi Music program on your hearing aids whenever you want to listen to music - whether you’re streaming it or hearing it live.
