Key Questions Answered
Users can access turn-by-turn walking navigation by asking Meta AI for directions to a destination, which uses location information from the connected smartphone. Alternatively, a destination can be searched in a mapping app on a smartphone, shared with Meta AI, and routed directly to the connected glasses.
Software version 129 introduces Mono Audio, which sends the same sound through both speakers instead of separating left and right channels for hearing-impaired users. It also includes an Audio Balance control that lets users shift audio towards either the left or right speaker based on their preference.
The new features and improvements are introduced through software updates delivered via the Meta AI app, arriving specifically with versions 128 and 129.
