For help with Food Scanner, Glasshole, or the Google Glass Explorer Edition (Google Glass XE) companion apps, contact:

Compatibility

The iOS apps are iPhone apps and require iOS 26.0 or later.

Glasshole supports Apple Intelligence on compatible iPhone models. Other supported iPhones can use configured cloud, local-network, PocketPal, or custom providers. Food Scanner’s default Local iPhone Vision mode works on supported iPhones without an API key.

Food Scanner

Food Scanner can be used without Google Glass XE by choosing a food photo from iPhone or taking a new iPhone camera photo. The Google Glass XE companion APK lets Google Glass Explorer Edition capture a food image and send it to the iOS app over local Wi-Fi or iPhone Personal Hotspot.

Nutrition values are AI estimates for general information only, not medical advice.

Glasshole

Glasshole can be used without Google Glass XE by tapping the microphone button in the iOS app. The Google Glass XE companion APK lets Google Glass Explorer Edition start and stop real-time conversation capture and display AI-powered fact-check overlays after analysis.

Use Glasshole only with the consent of everyone being recorded and in compliance with local laws and regulations where you use it.

  1. Install the iOS app from the App Store.
  2. Install the Google Glass XE companion APK from GitHub.
  3. Connect Google Glass Explorer Edition to your iPhone Personal Hotspot.
  4. Open the iOS app and confirm the Google Glass XE connection indicator.
