Hi LanellR. This may help you! It might, but it depends on both your laptop model and the type of Bluetooth your hearing aids use.[1][2] ## What needs to match - The laptop must have Bluetooth (built‑in or via a USB dongle) and, for many newer hearing aids, support for Bluetooth LE Audio in Windows 11.[2][1] - Many prescription hearing aids use special systems (MFi for iPhone, ASHA for Android, or brand‑specific adapters), so they often do not connect directly to a Windows laptop without an extra streaming accessory from the hearing‑aid brand.[3][1][2] ## How you can check quickly 1. On the laptop, open Settings → Bluetooth (Windows) or System Settings → Bluetooth (Mac) and make sure Bluetooth is on.[3] 2. Turn your hearing aids off and back on (or follow their manual) to put them into pairing mode and hold them close to the laptop.[3] 3. In the Bluetooth “Add device” screen, see if your hearing aids appear and can be added as an audio device.[2][3] If you tell the exact laptop model and the hearing‑aid brand/model, a much more precise yes/no answer and exact steps can be given.
