Switch between hearing aids and speaker

how can I switch between hearing aids and external speakers? I want to play a video for someone but my phone is set for my hearing aids. Currently, I turn off my hearing aids so the speaker will work. Is there a quick way to switch back and forth? My phone is at the latest iso.

Hey JAGrantz,


Let's see if we can manage your audio sources using Control Center.


On an iPhone X or later, swipe down from the top-right corner of your screen. To close, swipe up from the bottom of the screen or tap the screen.

On an iPhone SE (2nd generation), iPhone 8 or earlier, or iPod touch, swipe up from the bottom edge of any screen. To close, tap the top of the screen or press the Home button.


Touch and hold the Bluetooth icon to see connected audio sources

Tap the speakers, headphones, or accessory that you want to use.


Access and customize Control Center on your iPhone and iPod touch



Let us know if this helps.


Cheers.
