Hi
I have a Roger On and I am disappointed in it - especially for the high price. I use the microphone for 1:1 but the speaker has awful background noise that drowns out people at the table.
I found an app called HeardThat that actually is designed to shut down extraneous background noise and stream in the voices you want to hear. I could slip my phone onto the table at an extremely noisy, clattering coffeehouse and could clearly hear my soft-spoken brother-in-law across from me, his voice streamed directly into my HAs via Bluetooth. Otherwise conversation in there might have been impossible. The app requires a subscription after a trial period, But it’s way, way better than Live Listen, which hardly filters at all. Or directional settings on my Signia app, which changes where the sound comes from but doesn’t filter out extraneous noise. So I’m inclined to subscribe instead of buying an expensive accessory that may or may not be effective in real time.
