Frequently asked questions

How do I prepare my AI glasses before a long-distance run?

Start by fully charging your AI glasses and pairing them with the Meta AI mobile app. Clean the lenses, adjust the fit for comfort and confirm any compatible Garmin device is synced. Finally, download any offline content you want to listen to.

You can control the volume and audio playback via the touchpad or with voice commands using Meta AI. Just say, “Hey Meta, volume up” or “Hey Meta, volume down.” Or, using the touchpad, swipe forward to turn the volume up and swipe back to turn it down.

Powered by Meta AI, you can use “Hey Meta” with your AI glasses to answer questions and get information in the moment. Learn more about your world by asking things like:

  • “Hey Meta, what’s my pace right now?”
  • “Hey Meta, remind me to hydrate in 10 minutes.”
  • “Hey Meta, what’s the weather like along my route?”
  • “Hey Meta, play my marathon playlist.”

Find out more about Meta AI.

To ask questions about what you see, make a call or take photos and videos using voice commands, all you have to do is say, “Hey Meta…” and then your prompt. The multi-mic array can pick up your voice even in crowded, windy or loud environments.

Snap a photo any time with simple voice commands. Just say, “Hey Meta, take a photo.” No need to stop moving or reach for your phone. With Oakley Meta Vanguard, the Autocapture feature automatically takes photos or videos when you hit key distance milestones or ramp up your heart rate, speed or elevation.

When you capture photos and videos with your AI glasses, the media is stored on the device until you import them into the Meta AI mobile app. During import, your captures are temporarily stored as part of the Meta AI mobile app in a cache. The cache automatically clears itself shortly after import, but you can also clear it manually in Device settings.

Battery life depends on the glasses model. Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 1) offers up to 4 hours, while Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) supports up to 8 hours of use. Oakley Meta HSTN lasts up to 8 hours of typical use or 5 hours of continuous audio. Oakley Meta Vanguard delivers up to 9 hours of typical use or 6 hours of continuous audio.

Oakley Meta Vanguard has an IP67 rating, making it dust- and water-resistant up to 1 meter for 30 minutes, suitable for rugged outdoor use. Oakley Meta HSTN and Ray Ban Meta glasses have an IPX4 rating, which protects against splashes but is less suitable for extreme conditions.

Absolutely. Every model of AI glasses from Meta lets you connect to your smartphone using Bluetooth and listen to music through the open-ear speakers. You can control music playback, call friends and talk to Meta AI directly through your glasses.

You can answer or decline incoming calls on the go by saying, “Hey Meta, answer” or “Hey Meta, decline.” Make calls by saying, “Hey Meta, call [name]” and send voice messages through WhatsApp, Messenger or Instagram with prompts like “Hey Meta, send a voice message to [name] on WhatsApp.”

Most models are prescription-ready. All Ray-Ban Meta glasses and Oakley Meta HSTN support prescription lenses. Oakley Meta Vanguard does not support prescription lenses.

To clean your glasses after wearing them outdoors, gently wipe the lenses, camera lens and the nose-bridge charging contacts using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid dirty or abrasive cloths and all types of solvents or alcohol. Dry off your glasses before wearing them again or putting them back inside the charging case.
