# Digital otoscope for Android (Soundlink): guide and troubleshooting

With the digital otoscope, your doctor sees a real-time image of your ear canal during a remote appointment. This guide covers the Soundlink SOT100 for Android phones, which connects to your phone with a USB-C cable. iPhone has its own model.

### How to connect the otoscope to your phone

Connection instructions are coming later. Until then, our customer support can help you: [support@omply.com](mailto:support@omply.com).

### How to use the otoscope

1. Choose an ear tip that fits the ear canal. Place it on the cone-shaped end of the otoscope and turn it slowly until it locks in place.
2. Gently bring the otoscope into your ear canal. Don't press hard, and don't push it deeper than is comfortable.
3. Your doctor sees the same image you do and tells you how to move the device.
4. When the examination is done, remove the ear tip and throw it away.

Don't look directly into the otoscope's light, and don't point it at anyone's eyes.

### If something goes wrong

- **The app shows Device not detected.** Connection troubleshooting is coming later. Until then, contact customer support.
- **The otoscope doesn't work with your phone.** Check that you have the right version. This model only works with Android devices.
- **The image is too dark or unclear.** Adjust the brightness with the LED button and change the otoscope's angle slightly.
