Jump or point
Swipes step from link to link and scroll when the next one is far away. Pointer moves an arrow with your head, a swipe or a touchpad on the phone.
Browser brings ordinary websites to your Everysight Maverick AI or AI Pro glasses, streamed from your Android phone as a live, dark picture.
Your phone loads each page in Android System WebView, the web engine built into Android, and sends your tab to the glasses as a live picture, laid out dark because black is see-through there. A ring or an arrow marks your place, and the header says briefly what Tap will do.
You move through a page in one of two ways. Jump between links steps through links, buttons and fields with a swipe. Pointer works like a TV-remote arrow that follows your head. Reader view turns an article into paged text, a page’s video can fill the glasses, and other phone apps can send links straight to them.
Swipes step from link to link and scroll when the next one is far away. Pointer moves an arrow with your head, a swipe or a touchpad on the phone.
An article, or any page’s text, becomes sharp text pages in three sizes. It needs almost no bandwidth and keeps working when the live picture cannot.
Type or dictate on the glasses keyboard. An address opens the site, and anything else becomes a search with DuckDuckGo, Google, Bing, Brave or Wikipedia.
Tap a playing video to fill the glasses. Tap then plays or pauses it, and swipes jump 10 seconds where the site allows it.
Up to 12 tabs, with bookmarks and history, kept on the phone. After a restart each tab returns at its scroll position, in Live or Reader.
Cookie banners are answered with Reject where they offer it, and known ad servers and tracking pixels on GlintOS’s own list are blocked.
Search or type address, your two most recent tabs, your bookmarks and the last 30 visits. It also opens as a new tab.
The page with a ring or arrow, its title, and Search, Tabs and More. Small chips flag states such as NOT SECURE or ARTICLE.
The article as text pages, with the site and reading time on page 1. A Tap on a page brings up its links.
The video fills the glasses above a thin strip with play state, time and a progress line.
| Swipe forward | The next link, button or field, or a scroll down. In Reader, the next page; in full-screen video, 10 seconds ahead where allowed. |
|---|---|
| Swipe back | The same in reverse. At the top of a page it reaches Back. |
| Tap | Opens the link, button or field under the ring or arrow. It starts a video, takes a playing one full screen, and there plays or pauses it. Passwords and dates go to the phone. |
| Long tap | Back one step: out of full-screen video, back in the page history, then to Start, then Home. |
| Voice | Dictation from the glasses keyboard’s Mic key, through your phone’s speech recognition. |
Gestures come from the temple touchpad on Maverick AI and AI Pro glasses. An optional R08+ smart ring can send the same gestures from your finger.
A remote under Apps > Browser in the GlintOS phone companion app: address bar, Back, Forward, Reload, Reader or Live, and zoom.

A Now playing card for the page’s video or audio, your tabs, bookmarks and history, and settings for the search engine, pointer, live quality, ad blocking and cookies.
