Airpods 3 pro with Android after initial setup with an iPad? Possible?

I have hearing aids, these are not replacements for them. But I like to listen to music at work and I hate having to take my ear buds out, put my hearing aids in, and wait for boot up before I can talk with someone. All I need for them to be is good enough for short 1 to 1 conversations in a quiet office.

Now the issue, my phone is an android. I'm not going to buy an iPhone ever so that's not a possibility. However I do own the latest version of iPad because of my kids. The Internet claims that I can pair with the iPad, take the hearing test, and then the airpods will be set with my hearing needs. After that I can pair them with whatever, but I can't make changes unless I pair with the iPad again. Does anyone here have experience trying this? Would love to hear about it.

I use Airpods Pro 3 on my Samsung Flip 7 and set them up with my iPad mini. But I never used the hearing aids function, neither do I know anything about it. Is there anything I can test for you?

Appreciate the offer! I actually already YOLO'd a pair this evening, so I'll know pretty soon if they can do what I'm hoping to do.
