  2. Select the Headii you want to use.
  3. If it is disconnected, keep it near your phone and follow the app’s connection prompts.

Power, sound & updatesPeople can’t hear me on calls

Check the call’s microphone and audio output.

  1. Unmute the call and select Headii as the audio output.
  2. Make sure clothing is not covering the microphones. Try again somewhere quieter.
  3. Switch the call to your phone. If the other person still cannot hear you, check the call app and phone connection.

Good to knowIf the issue only happens with Headii, tell us which phone and calling app you used.

Power, sound & updatesThe device update stopped or failed

Check the update screen before trying again.

  1. If Headii is still installing or restarting, wait. Do not turn it off. Red and green flashes alternate during the update.
  2. When it reconnects, check the device software version.
  3. If the app offers a retry, follow its instructions. If it cannot confirm the result, send feedback with the message shown.

Good to knowA downloaded update is not proof that Headii has finished updating. The update light also stops on failure or restart, so check the result in the app.

Account, data & supportIs my content backed up automatically?

No. Signing in to Headii does not back up the content stored on your phone.

  1. End any active task.
  2. Move the files you want to keep to your phone. Open them to check they saved.
  3. If you’re unsure how to reset Headii, contact Headii Support before you continue.

Account, data & supportHow do I contact Headii?

Open Feedback on Home, or contact support@headii.com.

  1. Describe what happened and what you expected. Include any error message you saw.
  2. Add a photo or video if it helps show the issue, such as an app screenshot or the indicator light.
  3. Enter an email address where we can reply, then tap Submit.

Account, data & supportI didn’t receive a sign-in code

Check the email address or phone number you entered.

  1. For email, check your spam or junk folder. For text messages, check your phone signal and blocked messages.
  2. Wait until the sign-in page lets you request another code.
  3. If it still does not arrive, try another login method already linked to your account.

Good to knowNever share a sign-in code or password in feedback.

Account, data & supportI forgot my password

Use Forgot password? to reset it, or sign in with a code.

  1. On the password sign-in screen, tap Forgot password?.
  2. Send a code to the email address or phone number linked to your account, then enter the code.
  3. Enter and confirm a new password, then sign in again.

Good to knowResetting your password signs you out on other devices. If you normally use Apple or Google, use the same sign-in method.

Account, data & supportCan I recover a deleted file?

First check whether a copy still exists.

  1. Check your phone’s photo library, including its recently deleted folder if available.
  2. Check any copies you saved or shared elsewhere.
  3. If you are unsure where the file was stored, send feedback with the feature you used and where you deleted it.

Good to knowRecovery is not guaranteed. Save important files before deleting them or resetting Headii.

Tips

Small ideas for everyday use.

No charger nearby? Use the included cable.

When Headii is low on power, use the included cable with a compatible USB-C power source. A phone or tablet must support powering another device through USB-C.

  1. Plug one end of the included cable into Headii.
  2. Plug the other end into a compatible USB-C power source. A phone or tablet must support USB-C power output.
  3. Check the status light: solid red means charging, and solid green means fully charged.

If charging does not startSome phones and other USB-C devices do not output power to another device. Unplug and try a power bank or computer instead.

Good to knowThis is emergency power, not a charging-speed promise. Stop if the cable or either port becomes hot, wet, or damaged.

Keep your view clear

A cap brim or sunglasses can get in the camera’s view.

  1. Turn your cap backward or move the brim out of the way.
  2. If you wear sunglasses, take a quick photo or short video and check for any obstruction from the frames.
  3. Adjust or remove them if needed.

Give Headii a moment to cool

If Headii says it’s too warm to record, take it off your ears and let it cool naturally.

  1. You can rest it around your neck while it cools. If it feels uncomfortable against your skin, set it down in a shaded, well-ventilated place instead.
  2. Try again after about 3 minutes. If it’s still too warm, give it more time.
  3. Start a new recording once Headii is ready.
