Improve live-stream quality
Live-streams from your glasses will be lower resolution than recorded videos from your glasses or phone. You can improve resolution and video quality by following these best practices:
- Keep your phone close to you and in front of you, or in a front pocket.
- If you have a good 5G Wi-Fi signal, connect your phone to Wi-Fi, otherwise disable Wi-Fi on your phone and seek out a strong mobile phone signal.
- Do not stream music from your phone or interact with other Bluetooth devices (e.g. smart watch) during a live-stream.
- Turn off or disconnect other Bluetooth devices from your phone.
Note: Co-hosting a live video while streaming from glasses is possible; however, some functions may be limited and doing so may affect the quality of your live-stream. When you've finished co-hosting, restart your live video for best quality.
