   This app came with the yoke-style sound amplifier I bought, but it seems   
   to work with a cell phone and earbuds too, and though it's not what an   
   audiologist would do, IMO it's pretty good, and easy, and includes more   
   than I would have espected** you don't have to buy the sound amplifier   
   if you don't want, though I've included the link   
      
   **It tests hearing at iirc 4 frequencies and goes up and down, and maybe   
   up and down again, narrowing in on the lowest level at which you hear   
   the sounds, for each ear.   
      
   Even for my the $150 yoke style that I got, it seems to apply the   
   results of the test to the amplification, though I didn't try this until   
   yesterday, so I have no idea if it changed anything.   OTOH, mayyyybe   
   even for their fancier hearing aids, they use no more than this same   
   app.   
      
   But I'm offering this mostly as afun way to look at your hearing,   
   without even leaving your desk.   
      
   The manual, which I haven't read yet, and I should:

   Here is my product, but they make various kinds including behind the ear   
   with the little tube.
