An FDA-Certified and HIPAA Compliant Audiology App for Testing Hearing Capacities
Mobilears, an audiology medical application development for iPad to help patients test their hearing capacities with ease. It is an FDA, ANSI-certified, and HIPAA-compliant medical application that enables users to perform self-administered hearing tests, eliminating the need to travel to the hearing labs, thus offering convenient, cost-effective, and comfortable hearing test solution. The application features with a proprietary audio calibration (end-to-end encrypted) system, that is smart and accurate enough to work across different audio chipsets of varying iPad devices.
A leading provider of hearing tests and customized premium hearing aids for hearing-loss patients and audiology clinics across the US.

The client company wanted to develop an audiology medical app for testing hearing capacities of patients, anywhere, anytime, without the need for going to hearing labs. The application was required to be compatible with different iPads and hence, the client faced challenges to achieve the accurate and smart audio calibration to work across audio chipsets of different iPad devices.
The client approached Blue Whale Apps considering our expertise in iOS development and domain knowledge. To develop the hearing testing application on iPad, the client had specified the following requirements as part of the project:
Compliance with FDA, ANSI, and HIPAA standards 
Smart audio calibration as per different iPad devices 
Acoustic sound creation up to 70 decibels for audio testing 
In-app purchase option for headphones with payment integration 
Standardized sound adjustment as per patient’s hearing level 
Privacy and security of patient’s data 
Integration with patient care portals of clinics Blue Whale Apps started the project by documenting a detailed specification of the client’s audiology app development requirement. We started the initial stage by working closely with audiology labs and doctors to understand the hearing testing process. Here’s a step-by-step process we followed to develop the required hearing test solution on the iPad.
Blue Whale Apps developed an innovative and cost-effective application for testing the hearing capacities of patients with FDA, ANSI, and HIPAA-compliant backend. With this iPad application, both patients and audiologists can conduct self-administered hearing tests easily and record the test results in the backend portal. This patient care portal then enables admins to verify the validity of each test performed and provide recommendations to visit an expert if necessary.
