    Abstract: Disclosed is a headset for audio communication, a software application for an electronic device associated with a headset, and a method for controlling a headset feature. The headset is configured to be worn by a user. The headset comprises a speaker for sound transmission into the user's ear, a transceiver or a radio communication unit for communication with an external device, a connection to a location-based service software, the location-based service software is configured for controlling at least one headset feature based on location data of the headset, and a processing unit. The processing unit is configured for enabling the location-based service software to detect if the current location data of the headset indicates a change in location data corresponding to a certain change criterion and changing the at least one headset feature, if a change criterion associated with the change in location data is satisfied.

    Abstract: A hearing device comprising a first earphone with a first driver unit and a second earphone comprising a second driver unit. The headset further comprises a first ambient microphone adapted for converting ambient noise to an ambient input signal. A first electric circuitry is adapted for receiving the first ambient input sound signal from the ambient microphone and in an ambient mode outputting a first ambient output sound signal of a certain level to the first driver unit. An activation circuit is adapted to activate and deactivate the ambient mode for the hearing device. In the ambient mode, the ambient output sound signal is sent to the first driver unit and not the second driver unit.
