“…Ref. [100] proposes the process of implementing a smartphone app that enables improvement of auditory memory skills, particularly in children with hearing loss. The authors report that six different smartphone apps were developed, for all of which the usability tests were conducted, and the results suggest that the developed apps were suitable in improving auditory memory skills for children efficiently.…”

Smartphones containing sophisticated high-end hardware and offering high computational capabilities at extremely manageable costs have become mainstream and an integral part of users’ lives. Widespread adoption of smartphone devices has encouraged the development of many smartphone applications, resulting in a well-established ecosystem, which is easily discoverable and accessible via respective marketplaces of differing mobile platforms. These smartphone applications are no longer exclusively limited to entertainment purposes but are increasingly established in the scientific and medical field. In the context of tinnitus, the ringing in the ear, these smartphone apps range from relief, management, self-help, all the way to interfacing external sensors to better understand the phenomenon. In this paper, we aim to bring forth the smartphone applications in and around tinnitus. Based on the PRISMA guidelines, we systematically analyze and investigate the current state of smartphone apps, that are directly applied in the context of tinnitus. In particular, we explore Google Scholar, CiteSeerX, Microsoft Academics, Semantic Scholar for the identification of scientific contributions. Additionally, we search and explore Google’s Play and Apple’s App Stores to identify relevant smartphone apps and their respective properties. This review work gives (1) an up-to-date overview of existing apps, and (2) lists and discusses scientific literature pertaining to the smartphone apps used within the context of tinnitus.

The Korea Research Foundation selected the miniaturization and development of home care devices as the future promising technologies in the biotechnology (BT) area along with the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Accordingly, it is believed that there will be innovative changes in the rehabilitation field, including the development of smart diagnostics and treatment devices. Moreover, rehabilitation equipped with individualization, precision, miniaturization, portability, and accessibility is expected to draw attention. It has been continuously reported in the past decade that hearingimpaired toddlers who became able to hear speech through cochlear implantation and hearing rehabilitation before the age of 3, which is a critical period of language development, show a language development pattern similar to that of healthy toddlers. As a result, the need for developing language rehabilitation programs customized for patients wearing artificial cochlea has emerged. In other words, since the improved hearing ability owing to cochlear implant does not guarantee to promote speech perception and language development, intensive rehabilitation and education are needed for patients to recognize the heard speech as a meaningful language for communication. Nevertheless, a literature search on domestic and foreign cases revealed that there are insufficient language rehabilitation programs for cochlear implant patients as well as customized programs for them in the clinical coalface. This study examined the trend and marketability of online-based aural rehabilitation programs for patients wearing artificial cochlea and described the implications for language rehabilitation. This study suggested the following implications for developing a customized aural rehabilitation program. It is needed to secure and develop contents that can implement "a hand-held hospital" by using medical devices and mobile devices owned by consumers that transcend time and space. Also, it is necessary to develop a cochlear implant hearing rehabilitation training program suitable for native Korean speakers.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of aural habilitation using the smartphone applications of auditory memory skills for children with cochlear implants. Methods: Three children with cochlear implants (CIs) between the ages of 3 and 8 years participated in this study. The children attended the intervention using the smartphone applications once a week for 5 weeks. We evaluated their auditory memory skills before and after intervention, and analyzed the data using a one-group pretest and posttest design. The child's mother attended the survey for evaluating the educational effectiveness and satisfaction from the aural habilitation using the applications. Results: There were significant accuracy increases in the categorical items of auditory memory tasks. The intervention effect was not significant for auditory memory accuracy in the non-categorical items. There were individual differences in mother's perceived educational effectiveness and satisfaction with the intervention using the applications. Conclusion: The current study suggests that aural habilitation using the smartphone applications is effective and useful in improving auditory memory skills for children with CIs.
