The purpose of this research is to examine the clinical effectiveness of an investigational AI-powered smartphone app that describes the physical characteristics of an otoscopy image. It is not intended to make any diagnosis. Only healthcare professionals will make the diagnosis. The investigators will compare the diagnosis made by physicians or physician extenders (healthcare professionals) against the description provided by the support AI app tool to determine the clinical relevance of the system and examine its use within a clinical setting.
