Call and message on Ray-Ban Stories

With Ray-Ban Stories, you can connect Messenger, WhatsApp and your iPhone or Android phone with the Meta View app to make calls and send messages using voice controls. Your glasses can also announce when you get messages and read them out.

To connect your Messenger, WhatsApp or your phone to Meta View:

1. From the Meta View app, tap in the bottom right.
2. Tap Communication or tap your glasses then tap Communication.
3. Tap Connect next to one of the providers

To send a message:

1. With your glasses on say, "Hey Meta, send a message to [name]".
   • To use a specific provider (e.g. WhatsApp), say "Hey Facebook, message [name] on WhatsApp".
2. Listen and confirm that you've selected the correct person.
3. Say the message that you want to send. Your device will read your message back to you to make sure that it's correct.
• From here, you can say, "Yes", "No" or "Cancel".

To make a call:

1. With your glasses on say, "Hey Meta, call [name]".

1. From the Meta View app, tap in the bottom right.
2. Tap Communication or tap your glasses then tap Communication.
3. Tap the provider that you want to disconnect, then tap Disconnect.

Message announcement and read out

When you connect to a provider and have voice controls turned on, your glasses can announce who's messaging you and also read out your messages.

To set up message announcement and read out:

1. From the Meta View app, tap in the bottom right.
2. Tap Calling and messaging, or tap your glasses then tap Calling and messaging.
3. Tap your phone, Messenger or WhatsApp, then tap the toggle next to Announce messages or Read out messages to turn these features on or off.

Notes:

• If you don't hear message announcements when the toggle is on, make sure that you've provided Bluetooth permission in your phone's settings for the provider app.
• When vanish mode has been enabled on Messenger, your glasses won't be able to read your messages out loud.
• Wireless carrier charges may apply if you connect your glasses to your iPhone or Android phone.
• When you choose to connect your iPhone or Android phone to your glasses, you'll be asked for permission to access your phone contacts, so you can make hands-free calls from your phone with your glasses. Phone numbers and contact history will stay on your devices and will not be shared with Meta servers.
• If your phone is a dual SIM device, then your phone's default SIM will be used to make hands-free calls when connected to the Meta View app.

Important information about making emergency calls using Ray-Ban Stories

• Emergency calls (e.g. 911 in the US) must be initiated from your mobile device.
• If you have connected your glasses to your iPhone or Android phone, please review your carrier's emergency calling information to understand any limitations.
