Supporting the new technology while being an independent voice
Auracast is one of the most exciting technologies to be launched in recent year. It is no exaggeration to say it will transform lives particularly among the deaf and hard of hearing community.
But like anything that is new, finding clear and accurate information can be difficult.

It is also a website that is independent of the Bluetooth SIG group, and that means our editorial is equally independent.
We also aim to be impartial in the reviews we publish. We will tell you about our experiences, how easy something is to set up, and if it can make a difference or if the claims are a dud.
Site founder Phil Creighton is hard of hearing and wears Auracast-enabled hearing aids, so has a natural interest in how the new technology will be deployed in public situations. He has been a journalist for nearly 30 years, and also produces Cheeselogs, an arts and leisure blog for the Reading area, as well as Whoniversal, a website inspired by the television show Doctor Who.
We hope you enjoy discovering the benefits of Auracast Bluetooth LE Audio with us.
