1. Endurance Mode

   I loved the (experimental) Endurance Mode that was on the 2021 device, it would be great to bring that back in some way!

   GPS locations could trigger a sleep or wake command on the device.
   This would be a great power saver for outdoors treasure hunt experiences or guided tours!

2. CLAD confused with @wearable

   CLAD gets confused with @wearable in API docs, one of the lenses I tried I wanted to add content to the ceiling. CLAD wanted to use world query but said I can’t test this in editor since it is marked as @wearable and therefore only works on SPECS. Instead it wrote an editor fallback, even though this does work in the editor.

3. CLAD head-fixed

   CLAD a few times created head-fixed content, such as in game content and HUDs. HUD I can slightly understand, but even then there was no LERP applied, so it has that jitter look on device. No real reason for the game content to be headlocked, though.

4. CLAD appearing to be crashed

   Frequently when using CLAD LS would appear to be crashed, I would get the spinning wheel on mac, but it hadn’t actually crashed, it was just doing something in the background. Some indication that CLAD / LEAF is currently interacting with the editor would be fantastic.

5. Support for Precision Stylus Input

   Requesting native support for high-precision stylus devices—such as the Logitech MX Ink or Muse—to be integrated with Snap Spectacles.
   Current interaction methods (hand tracking and gaze) are excellent for navigation but lack the precision required for professional spatial design, technical drawing, and complex 3D manipulation. Integrating a dedicated stylus would transform Spectacles into a robust tool for creative and technical workflows.

6. Standardized Input Layouts (Game Controller/D-Pad) in Spectacles Companion App

   I am requesting that the Spectacles companion app be updated to include a library of standardized, system-level input layouts—specifically a "Game Controller" mode (D-Pad and buttons) and other common templates.

   Rationale:
   Currently, developers are forced to choose between building entire native companion apps (which is high-friction for users and developers) or relying on limited, non-standard touch inputs. By providing these as built-in UI templates in the official Spectacles companion app, Snap would allow creators to build high-quality gaming and utility experiences without requiring users to download third-party companion apps.

   Benefit:
   This would provide a consistent, high-quality user experience across all Lenses and significantly lower the barrier to entry for developers building interactive AR content, similar to the experience showcased in "Tiny Motors."

7. I think Specs developers should do another video showing off some mainstream like software features

   Hear me out! I think thw Specs developers should do another video showing off some mainstream like software features, that non gaming user could get on board with since this will be a more closed off ecosystem.

   I will give a few examples that could all fit into one software demonstration video:

   *YouTube - either show an app for YouTube or a browser with YouTube running. A dedicated app would be better here for more spacial computing window controls.

   *Netflix/All mainstream Streaming services- show a dedicated app for each of the mainstream streaming app services. A browser version would work as an alternative option but having its own dedicated spacial app is better here.

   *Word Document- show off an app dedicated for handing word document and PDF documents. This includes typing and editing using air keyboard.

   *All Social Media- a dedicated social media app for each of the mainstream. this could be difficult, but show the browser version could work here.

   *Communication- show some kind of original communication function that allow one person to directly talk to another person either on their own Specs or from a browser or another messaging like app that smartphones can access. In other words, show the Specs user calling somebody and talking to them somewhere else.

   *Browser- this the most obvious feature. I mentioned some uses above that fit here.

   *Maps - show off major map features, from AR directions to other social integration feature to Spacial Maps similar to Google Maps like XR features.

   *Music Apps- show off all the mainstream music apps running on the Specs with a dedicated app if possible or on browser as alternative method. Preferably its own app, and show off advanced sound mixing AR buttons and controls floating around the window, could get people excited for this use case.

   *Advanced Gallery and Photo Taking- show off the photo album, but also show off on device photo editing that allow user to add special effects and draw on photos. Could even have a Gaussian Splatting mode that allow the user to make a Gaussian Splat directly from the Specs similar to "Into The Scaniverse" does on smartphones now. Then user can preview the splat from the gallery.

9. Improved Media Export

   Improved Media Export

   Currently getting captures off Spectacles is quite an annoying task. Frequently now when transferring the captures to the mobile app a very small amount actually succeeds in transferring, and when they do the transfer speed is slow, especially when transferring a large amount. It would be great to have some option to transfer over cable, potentially from within LS.

10. Let Specs function as a monitor and allow for wired screen mirroring.

    Looks like a lot of AR glasses competitors are seeing a lot of success marketing their products as “big digital screens” so people can plug in their gaming consoles or really just mirror any kind of screen to the glasses.

    It would be good for Specs to allow for that as well, straight out of the box.

    Preprocessor directives, like the #ifdef in C#. This would enable quick changes between configurations and would be very useful if you write code that can be used both for SnapChat AND Spectacles, not to mention a future with multiple (generations of devices).

15. UI development on Spectacles: friction points and feature requests

    UI remains one of the most time-consuming parts of the Spectacles AR development workflow, and I suspect we're all hitting the same walls in parallel and coming up with bespoke solutions for our respective use cases.

    I'd like to use this thread to surface those friction points collectively so we can hand the Spectacles team focused, granular feedback.

    To get the conversation started, the recurring gap I keep running into is the absence of a spatial equivalent of HTML and CSS, which is to say no declarative layout, no constraint solver, and limited runtime introspection.

    Coding agents help with the generation side of UI work, but that doesn't take you all the way to a coherent user flow, so the orchestration work still falls back on the developer.

    Those challenges are what prompted me to start releasing small open-source pieces addressing particular pain points. The first drop is a text reflow utility: https://github.com/a-sumo/spatial-flex/tree/main/packages/text-reflow

    To keep things actionable, a few suggested buckets to drop into:

    1. Layout and constraints: what's hardest to express? (centering, fitting text in a box, responsive sizing, anchoring)

    2. Runtime introspection: how are you inspecting instantiated UI today?

    3. Live preview and testing: how do you verify the user experience matches your specification?

    UI remains one of the most time-consuming parts of the Spectacles AR development workflow, and I suspect we're all hitting the same walls in parallel and coming up with bespoke solutions for our respective use cases.

17. Enable Advanced Spatial Intelligence: Raw Mesh Access & Semantic Understanding

    Summary:
    Requesting an expansion of the WorldMesh API to allow for programmatic access to raw geometric vertex/index buffers and high-level semantic scene classification.

    Problem:
    While the current WorldMesh and HitTest APIs are excellent for visual occlusion and simple placement, they remain "black boxes" for advanced spatial reasoning. Specifically, we cannot programmatically access the raw vertex data to generate custom pathfinding (NavMesh) or perform geometric analysis (e.g., identifying surfaces for "Cover Finding"). Furthermore, semantic classification is currently limited to specific hit-test results; we need a more holistic way to query the scene's composition.

    Proposed Solution:
    -Raw Mesh Data Access: Provide an API to extract vertex and index buffers from the WorldMesh resource. Ideally, this should be delivered as a stream or via a "chunked" event system to maintain performance as the mesh refines in real-time.

    -Expanded Semantic Scene Graph: Provide a structured API to query the scene’s semantic layout (e.g., a list of all identified "Table," "Floor," or "Wall" objects within the camera frustum or radius) rather than relying solely on individual point-in-space hit tests.

    -Spatial Metadata: Expose geometric properties of these semantic objects (bounding volumes, orientation, and surface normals) to allow for sophisticated tactical AI, such as identifying valid cover positions or navigable space for agents.

    Impact:
    This would enable the next generation of "Spatial AI" experiences on Spectacles. Developers would be able to build intelligent agents that treat the user's home as a truly interactive, persistent, and "aware" environment, moving beyond simple overlays to meaningful mixed-reality game mechanics like tactical stealth and pathfinding-based navigation.

    Summary:
    Requesting an expansion of the WorldMesh API to allow for programmatic access to raw geometric vertex/index buffers and high-level semantic scene classification.

    Problem:
    While the current WorldMesh and HitTest APIs are excellent for visual occlusion and simple placement, they remain "black boxes" for advanced spatial reasoning.

18. Microphone not working on Spectacles with RemoteServiceGateway & ASR Module

    I am unable to get my lens to detect any microphone recording even though it works perfectly on Lens Studio.

    What I did:

    -Create a new project with Spectacles base template

    -Import remote service gateway

    -Use example for any AI service

    -Test on Lens Studio to ensure it work

    -Push to Spectacles to test again to find it not working

    -Create a ASRExample script from https://developers.snap.com/spectacles/about-spectacles-features/apis/asr-module

    -Test ASR on Spectacles and find it not working even though it works on Lens Studio

    -To ensure my microphone is not damage, I also tried the Imagine together lens and is able to use my voice to generate 3D objects

    Here is the project file I used: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1s_L9ou4LWDv9879aI3J3VLyURC0hedNB/view?usp=sharing

    Both my Spectacles OS and mobile app are on the latest version.
    I am using V5.15.4 for Lens Studio.
    My extended permissions is also enabled in Developer settings.

20. Full Computer

    Glasses should not be inherently a 2nd citizen. We should be able to use it and develop for it freely, like any personal computer. So I suggest:

    • Spectacles app should be optional: anything the app can do, the glasses should be able to do it without the app (connect to wifi, etc...).

    • We should be able to use the glasses without any account, like an Android phone does not require a Google account or a mac/windows can only have local account just for security purpose. Accessing the snap store would be like Android, you need an account. But there should be ways to also sideload apps, even if it's more developer focused.

    • We should be able to access files, as it is an Android devices. (at least as a developer with adb)

    • I also know why everything is focused on Lens Studio to develop, but we should also be able to choose another way, even if features are not already there. For example, even on Apple Vision Pro that have a really closed ecosystem, we can still use Unity/Godot in addition to native swift. Supporting WebXR is already a very good thing, so thank you for that.

      • What would be also very awesome, is to support WebXR app as native ones (without all the unecessary things from the browser as it overheat very fast). Personaly, I would say that it is even better than supporting OpenXR.
