Alice, this sounds interesting.  Can you ask your friend what the brand of her speaker is?

Subject: Open-Ear or Bone Conduction Wireless Headphones for Safe Travel in 
Noisy High Traffic Areas

I seek two-earpiece earphones I can use while walking to hear navigation 
guidance from an iPhone app. I need earphones that will play at a high volume 
level while I still can hear sounds from around me because I walk streets with 
heavy traffic. A microphone isn't essential, although would be a nice option. I 
will appreciate  recommendations from the list.

The variety of different Shokz models are confusing--their advantages and 
disadvantages. I'm open to other brands.

I've used a single-ear Voyager Legend Wireless Headset (formerly Plantronics), 
but find the volume is insufficient with high ambient noise.

I will appreciate Any assistance.

The app only works with OpenFit and OPenRun Pro.  I guess that is because of 
their newer technology.
I have the standard OPenRun, which cost exactly half what the OprnRun Pro 
costs.  I also have an older OpenComm headset.  I was hoping too they could 
have extra features through the app, but they don't.

Can I configure OpenCom in shokz app? I saw only an option to connect OpenFit 
and no other headset.

There are lots of over the ear headphones that have noise cancelation

Sorry about your water problems, Mark. Yes, I am very pleased with my
new Openfit headphones and my only disappointment is that you can only
adjust the volume through your phone, as the phone limits how loud it
can be turned to protect your hearing, but when my husband has a noisy
programme on the tv, increasing the sound would be useful. But, having
said that, for everyday use, the volume is fine.

Hello Alison,

I’ve been recovering from the water damage incurred last week’s deluge
so am just now seeing this thread which I think has been resolved.

1.
You can only adjust the Open Fit volume control using the phone volume
buttons.

2.
The Open Fit headset is not bone conducting so do not try to place the
speakers in front of your ears.  Instead, each earpiece is worn so
that the speaker is located just above your ear canal.

I am so glad you like Open Fit.

Mark

Thanks for the info Richard. You can increase the bass and trebble via
the app but it does seem you can only alter the volume by the device.
Other than this, I am very pleased with my new Openfit headphones.

Mark Taylor is the one who has the OpenFit. I have the OpenRun and

I do not know how the OpenFit work. Have you tried tapping the volume
control when nothing is playing?

If you do not get enough volume from the headphone control, you have
to turn it up with the phone volume control. Make sure they are
sitting on the bone in front of your ears.
