Mimi Hearing Test review

Mimi Hearing Test is the easiest place to start. Mimi Hearing Technologies, a company that licenses hearing personalization to audio brands, says the test delivers understandable results in about five minutes across a wide range of frequencies, and that more than 4 million tests have been taken with its technology. Results sync with the Apple Health app, so you can compare tests over time, and in some regions you can export a PDF to share with family or a clinician. Mimi is unusually open about the limits: it lists the headphone models it supports, from AirPods and AirPods Pro to Sony, Bose, Samsung, JBL and Nothing earbuds, and warns that other headphones may give less accurate results. It also states plainly that the test is an initial evaluation, not a diagnosis. The App Store page shows optional in-app purchases. With a 4.8 average from about 44,000 ratings, it is the most reviewed hearing test on the US store.
