MP3 player and internet radio made of wood with 3 large buttons for seniors.
Digital? No worries! hörbert hides all complicated functions behind a rotary knob and three large colorful buttons. The three large wooden buttons have high-contrast colors, are spaced far apart, and can only be used for playback – accidental adjustments to hörbert are therefore excluded, allowing for frustration-free use.
Operating our products is intuitive and analog. There is no display – navigation through the content is done by pressing buttons. However, managing content and functions is done digitally via any Wi-Fi-enabled device (2.4GHz) using a web browser. We call this the Browser SET Mode:
This allows you to easily change hörbert’s settings or manage tracks and internet radio stations without any tools or special software. Starting with the “Butterfly” firmware version, the Browser SET Mode is available — you just need to connect to the device via Wi-Fi. hörbert opens its own Wi-Fi network when you press the SET button inside the device.
No follow-up costs! Unlimited content is available to you via Internet radio over Wi-Fi. The web radio stations can be added to playlists just like regular tracks. The browser set mode offers a search function by station name to help you find the radio stations.
Or maybe you want to stream music from your phone via Bluetooth, like with any regular Bluetooth speaker? All you need to do is press hörbert’s volume control twice in succession to turn it on, and connect your phone.
hörbert’s included memory cards all contain at least 2 hours of pre-installed music and audiobooks. In total, the included card has space for over 50 hours of content (e.g., in MP3 format).
You can transfer your own music or audio plays to hörbert’s memory card. Either by uploading files from a mobile phone/tablet or PC in browser setup mode, or by simply copying files into the folders on hörbert’s memory card from a PC with a card reader.
And the best part? The content on your memory cards belongs to you! You don’t need an account or an internet connection to use it.
Not everyone wants or should listen in on their surroundings – for this case, Bluetooth headphones can be connected with hörbert.
Specifically for people with hearing impairments, there are extra loud headphones that can be connected to hörbert via Bluetooth.
To use hörbert as a communication aid, the built-in microphone is used. This makes it easy to record your own messages, which can be accessed later at the press of a button.
Tip: Personal voice recordings from family members add a nice personal touch for hörbert owners.
Wir setzen bei der Produktion und Verwendung der Materialien auf höchste Qualität und gesundheitliche Unbedenklichkeit. hörbert wird aus nachhaltigem, heimischem Holz, Edelstahl und nur einem geringen, recyclebaren Kunststoffanteil für die Elektronikkomponenten gefertigt. Die Herstellung erfolgt unter sozial gerechten Bedingungen in Deutschland.
Dies, in Kombination mit Eigenschaften wie Langlebigkeit, Reparierbarkeit und minimaler Verpackung, ist unser Ansatz für einen umweltbewussten und sinnvollen Umgang mit Elektronikprodukten.
Und im Fall der Fälle ist hörbert selbstverständlich reparierbar!
Each button plays your personalized playlist, which you can create yourself.
Pressing the same button again takes you to the next song – allowing you to quickly click through your playlists.
With the microphone, you can record voice messages at the push of a button and save them on the SD card.
A USB-C cable with a power adapter can be plugged into this port to operate hörbert via a power outlet.
Inside, there is the SET button. With this button, you start the Browser Set Mode, where you can adjust all hörbert settings using a smartphone, tablet, or computer.
We provide an SD card preloaded with lots of content. You can customize it and add your own content.
Only insert NiMH rechargeable batteries here! These batteries are charged inside hörbert, so disposable batteries must never be used. hörbert’s battery clips remain empty.
Plug and circuit board for the power connection and the charging function of the batteries.
When batteries are being charged in the device, a small LED on the power connection board blinks. It stops blinking when the batteries are fully charged.
