OBST New App Instructions - App Update (Coming Soon)

Welcome to the Updated Optimum Bio Sound Therapy App

NOTE: Subscribers will be notified when the Updated App is Live and will be sent the Updated User Guide.

Your Optimum Bio Sound Therapy (OBST) experience just got smarter. The new app lets you track every usage session and see hours used and sessions per Earbud set — helping you to track your usage and know when it is time to switch out your Earbuds.

What's New


  1. Session & Usage Tracking

    • Automatically records each OBST session.
    • Tracks hours per specific Earbud set — so you always know how much you’ve used them.
  2. User Profiles for Every Household Member

    • Create a profile for each person using OBST App.
    • Perfect for families or shared devices — each person’s data stays separate.

Quick Tips/Recommendations


1. Rename your Earbuds before first use.
Naming each set of Earbuds uniquely, e.g. OBST Earbuds A, will help you to easily distinguish between Earbud session logs. For help with pairing and renaming your Earbuds, please refer to the Quick Start Guide for OBST-Approved Earbuds.

2. Create a unique profile for each user.
If more than one person in your household uses OBST, you can create separate User Profiles to keep session history and earbud tracking accurate.

3. Have separate Earbuds for each user.
This will make tracking the hours that each set of Earbuds has been used much easier and replacement simpler. If you share Earbuds with another user, to calculate total hours used you will need to check each User Profile and tally up the session times.
