1. QR/Snapcode open url

   We should have something at the OS level triggerable in some way.

   Could be even better with an API callable from a lens.

   It could be also awesome to directly enter WebXR experiments.

2. Enable system level left hand mode

   Just a quick suggestion -- In a future OS update it would be nice to have a left handed mode. It would place the scrollbars on frames on the left side instead of the right side--and maybe swap hands for the palm interface, too. As a lefty, using the scroll views with my right hand is kind of annoying. Preferably it would be some OS-level change that would also automatically apply to lenses that use the scrollview.

3. Web Assembly (WASM) support

   Just wanted to put it out there that wasm module support in Specs lenses would be awesome. Specifically I want to be able to run things like retro game emulators or other emscripten compiled things within a lens with decent performance.

4. 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.

5. Webview + Spectacles feature requests

   Access to WebView audio volume; Access to the overall Lens audio mix; Access to Spectacles global audio level; ASR accepting audio inputs other than the microphone For example: WebView audio or the Lens global audio mix, enabling subtitles, transcription, or analysis for external media; YouTube Iframe support in WebView This would unlock many legitimate use cases for curated content, live streams, and educational experiences.

6. Audio Output Support for Spectacles via BLE

   Afaik Spectacles doesn’t support streaming audio to external speakers even if there’s Bluetooth support on board. Is this something really not there ? or planned for future releases ? Would really appreciate the native ability to connect external speakers as this would enable a wide range of musical applications where I can control and make music in Lens and play it out loud.

7. Compass heading varies quite a lot (and more GPS location / compass heading results)

   The quality of the compass heading data (based on LocationService.onNorthAlignedOrientationUpdate combined with GeoLocation.getNorthAlignedHeading) seems to vary quite a lot. Sometimes it's spot on, but often it's significantly off, including, but not exclusively, 180 degrees rotated. This specifically refers to the compass heading it picks up when it starts. If you start rotating your head, it looks like it's mostly IMU/SLAM tracking then, so then compass heading changes vs head rotation are quite stable. But if the initial compass heading it picked up is wrong (which happens frequently), it sticks with that misaligned heading through the rotation and doesn't correct the misalignment anymore, just nicely rotates it along.

   This will improve in the Specs releasing in 2026.

8. Web Sockets: can you publish the "version" of the WebSocket support on your docs pages?

   Then we can tie the Spectacles IK version to the WebSocket support, or how ever it happens. It is a bit tricky inside of a project to figure out if the upgrade to a module is applied properly.

9. Web Sockets: publish your test results against a known conformance suite

   The known test suite is autobahn : https://github.com/crossbario/autobahn-testsuite (be careful ... this repo links to at least one company that no longer exists and it is NSFW). Conformance results would help . Since the suite has been ported into python, C++ (boost), etc., you can pick the best and most current implementation.

10. Web Sockets: better error handling in WebSocketErrorEvent

    an event is nice, an event with the error message encoded would be more useful because websockets are tricky to debug without full control of the end to end set up

11. Web Sockets: support for ws://

    support for ws:// for self hosting/local hosting, it is easier to use and test for "non-public" use to let us decide for ourselves if we want to . ** Does this work? **. I realize setting up the trust and security is sort of inherent in web infrastructure, and I was not able to make this work with any servers I tested with. It would be great to document the end to end setup if there is one that is known to work.

13. Web Sockets: reateWebSocket factory method is missing an argument for setting the protocol

    The createWebSocket factory method is missing an argument for setting the protocol. See: The new WebSocket(url, protocols) constructor steps are: .... all of the other websocket apis out there allow this protocol field. Typically, a server will implement a call like request.accept('echo-protocol') or something like 'sec-websocket-protocol'. Real browsers send their request origin along. This limitation in the current design may actually crash servers on connection if the server hasn't set it self up to have some defensive design. I have test cases where my spectacles can crash the server because it passes no protocols.
