Especially easy with three buttons

Digital? Doesn’t matter! 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.

USB-C Power Supply

hörbert for seniors features a USB-C connection for power supply. For mobile operation, it is possible to optionally insert 4 NiMH rechargeable batteries into hörbert’s battery holder. These batteries are automatically charged while hörbert is connected to a power source. hörbert can be used normally during charging.

Intuitive operation

Press hörbert’s volume button, and it will start playing from the point where it was last turned off. Each of the three buttons is assigned to its own playlist. When you press one of the colorful buttons, hörbert plays the songs or audiobooks of the corresponding playlist in sequence. Simply press another button to play a different playlist. If you turn hörbert off again by pressing its volume button, it remembers the last playback position.

Full Control

The operation of our products is intuitive and analog. There is no display, navigation through the content is done at the touch of a button. However, content and functions are managed digitally via any W-Lan-capable device (2.4 GHz) using an Internet browser. We call it browser SET mode:
This allows you to easily change hörbert’s settings or manage tracks and web radio stations without any tools or special software. From firmware version “Butterfly” onwards, the browser set mode is available, all you have to do is connect to the device via WLAN. hörbert opens its own WLAN when you press the SET button inside.

Unlimited Streaming

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.

Listen to free content

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.

Bluetooth headphones

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.

Built-in microphone

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.
