What GlassScan does

GlassScan listens for Bluetooth advertisements from nearby smart glasses and similar wearable devices, and sends you a local alert when one is likely near you — even while the app is in the background.

Getting started

• Open the app and allow Bluetooth and Notifications when prompted.
• Leave the app running (or backgrounded) — it keeps scanning.
• Use the "Check your notifications work" button to confirm alerts are set up correctly on your device.

Troubleshooting

• No alerts? Make sure Bluetooth is on and that GlassScan has Bluetooth and Notification permission in iOS Settings.
• Nothing in the list? Smart glasses do not broadcast continuously — they're most detectable when powering on, pairing, or opening a charging case. Detection is best-effort.

What GlassScan cannot do

GlassScan cannot identify who is wearing a device, confirm whether recording is active, or determine signal direction. An alert means a nearby Bluetooth broadcast likely matches smart-glasses characteristics — not that recording is occurring.
