hörbert 3.0 for Seniors – 3 Buttons

Especially easy with three buttons

Digital? It doesn’t matter! hörbert hides all complicated functions behind one 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 – so unintentionally changing hörbert’s settings is ruled out, allowing frustration-free use.

USB-C power supply

hörbert for seniors has a USB-C port for power supply. For mobile use, 4 NiMH rechargeable batteries can optionally be inserted into hörbert’s battery holder. These batteries are charged automatically while hörbert is connected to a power supply. hörbert can be used normally while charging.

USB-C Buchse

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.
