Hands-free calling and messaging: Stay connected, stay present
Call, message and share from your glasses – wherever life takes you. Hands-free features in AI glasses from Meta make it effortless to connect with those who matter.

Connect hands-free, wherever you are
Capture and share a sunset, call a friend, send a quick text message – without lifting a finger. Just say "Hey Meta" and your voice does the rest, from WhatsApp calls to Instagram posts.
Take the call from your glasses
Mid-ride, mid-recipe, mid-adventure – pick up without pulling out your phone. Place and answer calls on WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram or your phone with just your voice.


Let your voice do the typing
Running late? Just say it. Dictate messages on WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram or text – hands-free. On Meta Ray-Ban Display, preview what you're sending and see photos and videos in-lens.
Share your POV effortlessly
See something worth sharing? Snap a photo or video with your voice and post it straight to your Instagram story or share to your family group chat – exactly as you saw it.


Show your world, hands-free
Need a second opinion at the store? Want to share the view from the trail? Go hands-free on WhatsApp, Messenger or Instagram. On Meta Ray-Ban Display, see who you're talking to directly in-lens.
Never miss a beat, hands-free
A gentle audio cue lets you know who's calling or texting – so you can decide to answer, reply or stay in the flow without breaking stride.


Say it your way
Some things are better said than typed. Record and send voice messages as you walk, ride or explore – personal, expressive and effortless.
Tune in without tuning out
AI glasses from Meta enhance accessibility. Hear your call while staying aware of your surroundings – open-ear speakers keep you tuned in to both. The multi-mic arrays on AI glasses filter out background noise so that you always sound your best on calls.
