App Features

The All-Day Clear app is straightforward and offers useful customization like volume control, programs, and a 3-Band EQ. It is missing more advanced features commonly found in other products like directional microphone controls and health tracking.

Handling

All-Day Clear
5.0EXCELLENT

All Day Clear are fairly easy to use receiver-in-canal style hearing aids and I did not run into any usability issues while trying them. One things worth noting is that, while the case works well, it does not have an internal battery and must be plugged in to charge.

RIC700
4.5EXCELLENT

I experienced a few hiccups using the iYeasound mobile app. Otherwise, RIC700 Plus were easy to use and get in my ears, though you may need some practice if you have not worn receiver-in-canal devices before.
