It works - except that it produced a very high pitched and very loud sound, somehow a feedback problem, but there could be something more. The sound is so extremely loud and high that it is directly harmful too the ear. And it is so high that it may be outside of the useful audio frequencies. It needs to be filtered out. The feedback problem is unavoidable, of course. But this is not just a tone that cold be a real noise. I used a simple headset of the type earbuds with small device in the cable, which contains a button and a tiny microphone hole. It gave me tinnitus after about a minute.

Amplifier app designed to allow use of your phone as a hearing aid. Works as described, and amplifies all sounds, which is a plus point for someone with hearing loss. Also works with wired and bluetooth earphones. Not particularly great at distinguishing background noise, which could be a negative if you are trying to listen to a conversation in a noisy environment. I would have liked it to be able to cut all background noise, and use it to listen to music in peace, but that's not it's purpose
