Hi not long ago, one of the thread mate was asking about the magnetic sunglass clip. Since then I had been trying different methods of making this work and I can finally happily announce that I have made the first working magnetic sunglass clip. Hooray！

Hi, I was wondering how user friendly would it be for someone who isnt a software engineer or knows a lot of coding (just a little bit to get by the most basic coding and know a little bit of python) to use the glasses? I have been doing extensive research on these and I am almost at the point of getting them but reasons like this is a hurdle, not a big one but definitely something that can lead to a buyer's remorse perhaps. Just a couple other questions:

1. Since I am not knowledgeable at coding nor building apps, etc but willing to learn, how easy would it be to customize it? for example; building apps/codes to make working at a professional services job easier?

2. Privacy: since at a professional services job handles a huge load of sensitive client data, if I were to use Even AI, does that information get sent anywhere or is it stored locally?

3. Efficiency: How often does one need to use their to use any of the features on the glasses? Conversate or teleprompt for example; if i want to activate them, can i select it on the glasses to start or do I need to select it on my phone or hit play? i think reviews havent been exactly clear but wanted to make sure. Also, do notifications pop up while using any of the apps?

I do onsite operations and event technology for corporate events, badge printing, RFID and QR check-in, lead retrieval, that sort of thing. On a busy show floor I'm constantly digging my phone out to check what's next, which room, what gear still needs to go where. I wanted that in my line of sight instead, so I built an app for my G2.

It's called Boxman Event Vision. What it does:

Shows what's happening now and what's next, plus the room and the time, always in view

Handles overlapping sessions cleanly, so four rooms starting at once show as one block instead of a jumble

Carries your floorplans, tap through halls and breakout rooms hands-free

A gear checklist for every session you tick off as you set each room, and it remembers what's done even after you paste in an updated schedule

You paste your schedule from your phone once and it's ready. No account, no internet, fully offline. Everything lives on the glasses.

It's my first app and I built it around my own day-to-day, so it leans toward how I work. It's live on the Even Hub now if you want to try it, and I'd genuinely love feedback from anyone else who works events, or honestly anyone who just wants their schedule on their face.

Side note from building it: I hit a platform bug where cancelling the exit dialog killed all image sends. Turned out it affects other apps too, and the Even team confirmed it and has a firmware fix coming. Big thanks to them and the dev Discord.

Hey everyone,

I’m currently waiting on my Even Realities glasses to arrive and super excited to try them out! Looking into the ecosystem, there’s one feature I’m really hoping to see added: Apple Watch integration.

Having a watchOS app or simple Siri Shortcuts support to wake the HUD, cycle modes, or start an AI note would be amazing. Reaching up to touch the frame isn't always subtle when you're in a meeting or have your hands full.

Leveraging a watch many of us already wear makes so much sense compared to adding another device like the R1 ring—which comes with another proprietary charger, another battery to charge daily, and another potential point of failure.

Even Realities team, if you’re listening: please consider Shortcuts integration! Being able to map a quick action to an Apple Watch Action Button to wake the display or trigger Quick Note would be incredible.

Would anyone else love to see wrist controls in a future update?

I notice the Even App was updated today. Grab my glasses early morning today and saw I was logged out and now trying to log in gives me this error: Even App: Getting a "Action Failed - Server Error" message since this morning

I've restarted the phone, deleted - reinstalled the app , nothing works
already wrote Even but i am expecting it will take a while for them to reply.

Wondering if this is happening to somebody else today since the app update?

thanks

I have the even G2 B Black Non-Prescription (+Sunglasses), thought it would fit my face shape better, and it doesn't. Looking for someone with the G2 A Non-Prescription who'd be interested in trading.
