A new app called ZuckOff scans nearby Bluetooth signals to alert users when smart camera glasses like Ray-Ban Meta, Oakley Meta, or Snap Spectacles are in the vicinity. The app processes everything locally on the phone, requires no account, and lets users log all detected devices, mark their own glasses to silence alerts, and export scan history as CSV. It also sells branded merchandise through Fourthwall to help fund development.

Snap has released a new generation of its standalone AR Specs, featuring dual cameras for hand-tracking controls similar to prior models but with added polish. The glasses now let AR content anchor in place and follow the wearer around a room, addressing a key complaint from earlier versions, and offer a slightly wider 51-degree field of view along with adjustable display dimming for different lighting conditions.
