============= Using Glass with other Bluetooth devices
While Glass should work with most Bluetooth-capable devices, for best results, we recommend using Glass with an Android or iPhone phone.
For phones that support Bluetooth connections with Glass, pairing your Glass to devices via Bluetooth
https://support.google.com/glass/answer/3064189
lets you make and receive calls hands-free. Since many of Glass' features depend on the Internet, tethering your smartphone (where available) is highly recommended.
======================================= ======================================= ======================================= GLASS BASICS

access point to Glass features, including voice actions and your timeline. Fig. 30
f your display is off, tap the touchpad. The display will turn on and you’ll be greeted with the current time and the words "ok glass." Say these magic words aloud and you’ll see a menu of Glass voice actions. https://support.google.com/glass/answer/3079305
If you don't feel like announcing "ok glass" to a silent room, we've got you covered. Activate Glass by tapping your touchpad. Tap again and you can swipe through all available actions.

===================== Cards and bundles
It helps to imagine that the Glass interface as a row of cards that wraps around your head. Cards can contain activity history, content, and other notifications.

When it's time to charge Glass' battery, you'll see an empty battery icon on the display. Plug the charger into the wall and then plug in the micro USB cord included with your Glass to recharge the battery. While charging in an inactive state,
https://support.google.com/glass/answer/2725948#inactive
an empty battery icon on the display will animate whenever the display is activated. The Power LED While Glass is charging, the LED on the curved back of the device, near the power button, will
pulsate slowly. It will remain solid when Glass is fully charged.
Checking battery level You can check the battery level while using Glass by swiping all the way to the Settings bundle at the far left of your timeline.
Battery Charged indicates that your Glass is fully charged.

Glass Settings The charger
The connectors of the cable and charger are two-tone so you always know which way to plug in the USB. On Glass itself, the cable is at a right angle facing backward (the white half of the connector facing out) so that the base of the connector can be used to stabilize Glass on a flat surface while charging.
You can use the included USB cord to charge Glass, but you'll get more power directly from a working wall outlet. Use the included charger to charge Glass fastest.
Extra chargers are available for purchase in the Glass store.

https://support.google.com/glass/answer/3079857
from the Settings bundle to put Glass in an inactive state automatically whenever you take Glass off.
ATTENZIONE Hard power down While Glass is plugged in, pressing and holding the power button for 15 seconds triggers a hard power down; the LED light goes off and Glass isn't charging. Glass will not charge when hard powered down. Charge Glass overnight
While charging and within range of a Wifi network, Glass will automatically update to the latest software and sync any pictures and videos to your Google+ Auto Backup. It's good practice to charge every night to make sure Glass is always up-to-date and your photos are there waiting for you in your Google+ albums when you wake up.
Powering Glass after a long period of disuse If you've not charged Glass for a couple of days/weeks, you may find that it will take longer to
charge Glass. In this state, it's normal to not see the empty battery icon appear on the display or that Glass will not turn on when you press the power button. Grab a cup of coffee and return in a bit and Glass will turn on normally.
Availability If you don't see chargers in the Glass store, don't panic. Check back again in a few days.
Accessories appear automatically whenever they are in stock.

====================== Audio Fig 37
Hear that? Sound from Glass comes from the Bone Conduction Transducer (BCT), a.k.a. the speaker, found on the inside of the device just before the battery. It's the oval piece with the Glass logo printed on it that rests just behind your ear.
Sound volume can be set on the Volume card
https://support.google.com/glass/answer/3284795
under the Settings bundle. You can also set volume when in a voice or phone call by tapping and scrolling to the volume card action.
If you need even more clarity, get the earbud accessory
https://support.google.com/glass/answer/3501098
available from the Glass store (or included with Glass received after 10/28). Here are a few tips to help improve Glass' sound quality:
Press the BCT against your head so that it is flush against your skull. This improves the conduction of sound through your bones and to your inner ear. Cup your right ear to reduce ambient sounds that might interfere with Glass' sound quality. Sometimes you may feel a tickling vibration from the BCT. That's normal, but if it's bugging you, turn down the volume.

You can tell Glass to do lots of things like a Google search, take a picture, record a video, get directions, send a message, and make a call. All you have to do is say the magic words "ok glass" and then say your voice action aloud.
Glass must be activated and your display must be on in order to start a voice action. To get Glass to wake up and listen, tap the touchpad once or lift your head to the Head Wake angle (if you have Head Wake Up on).
https://support.google.com/glass/answer/3079855
Once you say "ok glass," you'll see all available voice actions. Scroll through this list by tilting your head up or down or swiping forward and back.
You can also double tap the touchpad while on your Home screen to open the voice action list without speaking. Once you do, you can scroll through the available list of actions using the touchpad. The touch menu looks a little different than the voice-activated menu; the actions are listed horizontally rather than vertically. However, the list of actions and their functions are the same. Continue through this guide to learn some more Glass voice actions.
Pictures and video Pictures and videos on Glass lets you capture specific images and videos right in the moment
and virtually hands-free.
Pictures Use Glass's camera to take crystal clear high resolution pictures in low or bright light. Glass is equipped with a 5 MP camera and some software improvements, like HDR, to detect
low light situations and automatically capture a brighter, sharper picture. Best of all, this

Speeka s.r.l. Via Carlo Pisacane 42 20129 Milano Italy
g-glass@speeka.com www.speeka.com T.349-079-5312
software works even in tough situations where there are moving subjects.
There are two ways to capture a picture: From the Home screen, say "ok glass, take a picture."
Press the camera button above your right eye to capture a picture. After snapping a picture, you'll see a brief preview of the shot you’ve just taken before it is saved to your timeline. Tap the touchpad while the preview is on-screen, or say "ok glass, share with...", to share the picture with one of your contacts or Google+ circles.
View your pictures To view the picture in your timeline, swipe forward on the touchpad from the Home screen.
Glass will make a collage out of pictures, videos, and vignettes taken during a day and bundle them together. Tap into the bundle to browse and then on a picture to share or delete the picture from your timeline. You can also find the picture in your Auto Backup album on Google+ once Glass has a chance to sync your pictures.
Syncing on Google+ Glass will sync all of your pictures and videos automatically to your Auto Backup album when
you plug it into a charger while it is within Wifi range. You can force a picture or video to sync by sharing it manually.
You can also import the pictures and videos you captured with Glass by connecting it to your computer with the USB cable. It will connect as a media device, similar to a USB drive or camera.
Make a vignette Vignettes superimpose a screenshot of your Glass display over a picture. You can share these
around to show what you're doing on Glass while you're taking a picture. It's a sweet little snapshot of your experience on Glass.

g-glass@speeka.com www.speeka.com T.349-079-5312
To take a vignette: Use Glass normally and prepare the Glass display for a screenshot.
When you've lined up what you want on your display, press Glass's camera button. Tap the touchpad and select Make vignette. You'll also have the ability to share a vignette and attach a comment on Google+ after the picture is saved. Find your vignette in a bundle on your timeline, or in your Auto Backup album on Google+ later when Glass has a chance to backup.
============ Videos
Capturing video clips with Glass works similarly to taking a picture: Press and hold the camera button above your right eye for one second.
From the Home screen, say "ok glass, record a video." While recording, you'll see what is being recorded by Glass in your display as well as a time counter for your video recording.
Extend a recording Glass defaults to recording video clips of ten seconds. To continue recording past the default
limit, do either of the following while the video is in progress: Press the camera button.
Tap the touchpad and then Extend video. You'll know it works when the progress bar along the bottom of the display disappears. The video will then continue until it's stopped or you run out of storage or battery.
Stop a recording To stop recording your video, tap the touchpad and swipe through the card actions to select
Stop recording. If you extended your recording, the camera button can then be used to stop the recording.
View your recording To view the video in your timeline, swipe forward on the touchpad from the Home screen. Glass will make a collage out of pictures, videos, and vignettes taken during a day and bundle them together. Tap into the bundle to browse and then on a video to play the video.

which lets you share pictures and videos to Google+ on your computer. A small "sync" icon in the lower left corner of each item indicates that the item hasn't been uploaded yet (if you don't see the sync icon over your item, it means it has been uploaded).
You can also import the pictures and videos you captured with Glass by connecting it to your computer with the USB cable. It will connect as a media device, similar to a camera. Then you can share them just as you would any picture or video on your computer.

================== Make vignette
Vignettes superimpose a screenshot of your Glass display over a picture. You can share these around to show what you're doing on Glass while you're taking a picture. It's a sweet little snapshot of your experience on Glass.
To make a vignette: Make sure the screenshot you want is active in your Glass display.
When you've lined up what you want on your display, press Glass's camera button. Tap the touchpad and select make vignette. To see the make vignette action, you'll need to have taken a picture via the camera button while your intended screenshot was active in your display. For this reason, the make vignette option is not available when taking a picture using voice actions or menu actions. Share a vignette and attach a comment on Google+ after the picture is saved. Find your vignette in a bundle on your timeline, or in your Auto Backup album on Google+ later when Glass has a chance to backup.

Wink Wink configuration screen
For those times you might miss a shot, try capturing the moment with a wink. The Wink feature is an exploratory feature that lets you take a picture with a wink. It's even faster than the camera button

or voice action
https://support.google.com/glass/answer/2725953
and it even works when the display is off. To turn it on and calibrate it for the first time: Swipe backward from the Home screen until you see Settings.
Tap Settings and swipe forward to the Wink settings card.
https://support.google.com/glass/answer/4347190
Tap the Wink card to calibrate Wink for the first time. You'll be asked to wink twice to calibrate Wink. For consistency, it helps to look at the screen when winking.
Etiquette Use your best judgment when using Wink. Be careful who you're winking at and be conscious of
your surroundings when you do it. You don't want to give off the wrong impression. ;-) How it works Right next to the display is a tiny light sensor that watches your eyelid move. It's used for on-
head and wink detection. If the sensor is obstructed or aimed incorrectly, these features will not work.

In case you're wondering, this light sensor is completely safe. The light it emits is no more dangerous than natural light.
Troubleshooting Wink ATTENTION Wink on older devices
Wink only works on the latest version of Glass devices. Devices received before October 28th, 2013 won't show the Wink feature in the Settings bundle. If you want to take part in Wink and other future features and accessories, sign up for our limited-time swap out offer. Wink doesn't work on everyone yet, but here are some things to try if Wink isn't working properly.
Look at the display For best results, look at or through the screen when you wink. This may involve tilting your head up or down slightly to be able to see through the display.
Time your winks Make a calculated and deliberate wink. The wink sensor may not pick up a fast wink. For best results, make a mental effort to scrunch the corner your eye and try to time your wink to a half second.
Fit Glass correctly Glass's fit can sometimes position the camera differently, depending on your unique facial features. The wink sensor needs to be properly aligned in order to work correctly. In most cases this means having Glass just above your field of vision, and adjusting the display so that you can see the entire screen. For more tips, visit this this article on fitting Glass.

Don't worry about lighti ng It doesn't matter what time of day when you use Wink, but sometimes Wink will need to be recalibrated if you're squinting in full sun or, conversely, if you're eyes are at rest in the dark. If you can't get wink to work in a certain environmental condit ion, try recalibrating on the spot.
Remove eye makeup Some eye makeup might throw off the Wink sensor. To fix, recalibrate Wink after you've applied your makeup.
Remove Shades or Shields If you calibrated Glass with Shades or Shields installed, try taking them off and trying again. If
you don't think you'll need Shades or Shields for a while, recalibrate without them. If you're still having issues with Wink
Recalibrating Wink will solve most issues, but we're aware that Wink won't work with every face. If you're not satisfied with Wink's performance, turn it off from the Wink card

FAQ Is Glass indestructible? No. Glass is robust, stable and built to ?t into your life. But you might break it if you don't handle it with care. Protect your Glass by using the pouch we've provided, or another carrying case that you trust to keep Glass safe, dry, and awesome.
Is Glass useful everywhere? Like everything, there is a time and a place. Glass is designed for micro-interactions, not for staring into the screen, watching Friday night movie marathons or reading "War and Peace." It might be harder to hear Glass or use voice input commands in noisy areas, and it might be harder to see the Glass screen in bright sunlight. Also, you may be in certain places like a doctor's o?ce where those around you don't feel comfortable being photographed or captured on video. Always consider your surroundings ­just like you would with a cell phone. Above all, be considerate.
Can I use Glass while driving or bicycling? It depends on where you are and how you use it. As you probably know, most states have passed laws limiting the use of mobile devices while driving any motor vehicle, and most states post those rules on their department of motor vehicles websites. Read up and follow the law! Above all, even when you're following the law, don't hurt yourself or others by failing to pay attention to the road. The same goes for bicycling: whether or not any laws limit your use of Glass, always be careful.
Can everyone use Glass? Glass isn't for everyone. Like when wearing glasses, some people may feel eye strain or get a headache. If you've had Lasik surgery, ask your doctor about risks of eye impact damage before using Glass. Don't let children under 13 use Glass as it could harm developing vision. Also, kids might break Glass or hurt themselves, and Google's terms of service don't permit those under 13 to register a Google account. If Glass is not for you and you wish to return it, do so before the end of the applicable refund period.
Can I use Glass while operating a jackhammer? Use caution. Glass can't protect your eyes from ?ying debris, balls, sharp objects, or chemical explosions. Using Glass while operating heavy or inherently dangerous equipment, or engaging in physical sports, could distract you, cause Glass to impact your eye, and lead you to harm yourself or others. So play your one-on-one Glass free.
Is it OK to go scuba diving with Glass? Uhhh... no.
Don't let the Glass device or battery come in contact with liquids. Liquids can get into the electronic components, leading to corrosion.
