Abstract
A hearing system includes a hearing aid () and a personal communication device (), and both have a short range data transceiver () for short range data communication. The hearing aid () has a signal processor () processing an electric input signal according to predefined audio processing parameters, and a signal processing sub-system with at least two modes of operation applying respective sets of audio processing parameters. A program selector component () has a classifier () analyzing the electric input signal and classifies an auditory environment of the hearing aid (). The personal communication device () has an auxiliary classifier component () monitoring the use of the personal communication device, and generates and transmits a notification upon detection of a change of the environment. The program selector component () receives the notification from the auxiliary classifier component (), and takes the notification into account when selecting one of the at least two modes of operation for the signal processing sub-system.
