Even Realities G2’s biggest software update yet brings an app store and a meeting prep tool that changes how you work

The G2 just got smarter, more personal, and a whole lot harder to put down.

Even Realities rolled out its biggest software update since the G2 smart glasses launched, and it’s an update that makes the smart glasses useful and indispensable.

The big new feature is Prep Notes, a redesigned version of the company’s Conversate AI feature. Before any meeting, call, or job interview, you can now upload a PDF, a document, or type in notes directly from your phone. Once the conversation starts, it surfaces relevant information on the glasses’ HUD, giving you suggested responses and key facts.

CEO Will Wang describes the thinking behind it: “A lot of users are asking, yeah, it’s useful, but I wanted to have more context so the agent can understand me better.”

The new upload feature lets you add context to any meeting in advance, so you’re always prepared instead of scrambling through your notes at the last minute.

Can your glasses replace your pre-meeting prep?

The short answer is getting closer to yes. If you upload a relevant file, the AI will auto-summarize the document and display a readable version on your heads-up display. 

You can also create multiple Prep Notes and switch between them, which is genuinely useful if you are a salesperson cycling through different clients or pitch decks in a day.

Even Realities also refreshed the display UI based on user feedback. The previous version crowded too much information on the screen. The new layout is cleaner and hides elements until you need them.

What else is coming to the G2?

Another major addition is the launch of Even Hub, an open app platform that lets developers build directly for the glasses. There are already around 60 apps available, ranging from chess to Tesla car management, all built by a community of roughly 2,000 developers.

The company is clear about the privacy guardrails: apps are only allowed to request the minimum permissions they actually need. In the interview, David, Product Manager at Even Realities, said, “If your app is not using microphones, then we’re going to bar the API from being called.”

I like that Even Realities is focusing on privacy and an open platform for development. With the recent reports of Meta sharing your most personal recordings for training its AI, I hope companies like Even Realities remain transparent and enforce stringent privacy guards. 

Prep Notes is available now in the Even Realities app. Even Hub launches next week.

Smartbands or smartwatches immediately make you think of some wearable built for keeping track of your health and physical activities. But in Rome, they are being used to help the elderly. The new watches are being deployed to senior citizens to help them stay safe during the dangerous heatwave that has swept across Europe.

According to Reuters, the city is using electronic bracelets as part of a €400 million support scheme for older residents. The program, backed by EU post-COVID funding, currently covers about 700 people.

If there’s one thing that annoys me about using a smartwatch outdoors, it’s squinting at the screen under bright sunlight. Whether I’m checking directions on a walk or glancing at a notification while cycling, a dim display can quickly turn a premium smartwatch into a guessing game.

That’s why the latest Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 leak immediately caught my attention. But after reading through it, I couldn’t shake one nagging thought: all these upgrades probably won’t come cheap.

There are already plenty of mental-health chatbots online, but they all run into the same problem. The user still has to reach out first. That is not always easy when someone is stressed, anxious, overwhelmed, or simply unsure how to put their feelings into words.

Researchers at the University of Ottawa are working on a different kind of AI assistant. It is designed to read emotional cues in real time through signals from devices people already use, including smartwatches, smartphones, and earbuds.
