GlintYour voice, not the room
Recording always uses the directional glasses microphone, never the phone’s.
GLINTOS MINI-APP · PRODUCTIVITY
Say it once.
Keep it as a voice memo.
Recorder saves voice memos from the Maverick AI and AI Pro glasses microphone that is aimed at your voice, as audio files on your Android phone.
What it is.
Tap Record on the glasses, talk, and tap Stop. Recorder listens through the glasses’ directional microphone, which the Everysight SDK describes as beam-formed toward the wearer, so it mainly picks up your own voice. A large timer and a live level meter show that audio is arriving. The saved memo then opens, ready to play on the glasses speaker or to delete.
Each memo is a speech-quality audio file, 16 kHz mono, kept in GlintOS’s private storage on your phone: about 1.9 MB per minute, up to 60 minutes each. There is no account, no API key and no internet involved. The GlintOS phone companion app lists the same memos and can start or stop a recording on the glasses.
What you get.
Interruptions keep the audio
Back saves the memo. A disconnect, taking the glasses off or the 60-minute limit also saves it, with a notice such as Glasses disconnected · 00:42 saved.
Playback on the glasses
Memos play on the glasses speaker with a progress bar and elapsed and total time.
Records in the background
Switch to Home from the phone companion app or by voice and recording continues, with a pulsing REC timer in the status rail.
Asks before taking over
If another app is using the microphone or speaker, Recorder names it and asks first, with Cancel focused.
Status on Home
While Recorder runs, the Home Summary widget can show its status, such as Recording with the time or the number of memos.
On your glasses.
Recorder
Your memos, newest first, with date, time and length, such as 8 OCT 14:32 and 00:42, plus Record.
Recording
A large timer, a level meter and STARTING MIC, then REC · DIRECTIONAL MIC, then SAVING. Stop is focused.
Voice memo
Date, length and size, such as 00:42 · 1.3 MB, with Play or Stop and a progress bar. Delete asks first, with Keep focused.
Microphone is in use
Names the app that is listening and asks whether to stop it. Cancel is the default; Record takes over.
How you control it.
| Swipe forward | Moves focus down the memo list, page by page, and on to the buttons. |
|---|---|
| Swipe back | Moves focus the other way. |
| Tap | Opens the focused memo, or presses Record, Stop, Play or Delete. |
| Long tap | Goes back by default. While recording, it stops and saves the memo; on a memo, it stops playback. |
| Voice | With Recorder in front, say stop to the GlintOS assistant to end a recording or playback. Any other phrase starts one. |
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.
Home and phone.
Under Apps > Recorder: the memo count or the live recording time, with Record on glasses or Stop recording.
Every memo with date, time, length and size, and Delete with a confirmation.

These rows are about Recorder. GlintOS itself also needs internet on the phone the first time it connects to your glasses and about once a month after that, when the glasses’ security certificate is renewed.
Set it up.
- Install GlintOS on an Android 11 or later phone and connect your glasses.
- Open Recorder from the glasses Home dock, or with Open on glasses under Apps > Recorder.
- Tap Record, speak, and tap Stop.
- If Recorder says the microphone is off, turn it back on under Settings > Privacy > Recorder, and reopen Recorder if it still can’t record.
- For voice commands, set Long tap to Assistant, or use Ask Glint in the phone companion app.
Your data.
- Memos are audio files in GlintOS’s private storage on your phone. Recorder has no network access.
- Android cloud backup and phone-to-phone transfer exclude them.
- A MIC indicator shows while the microphone is in use. Taking the glasses off stops the recording and keeps it.
- Optional voice commands go to your phone’s speech provider, which may process them online. Memos are not sent to it.
Good to know.
- GlintOS is an independent project in development, with the free public APK planned for December 2026. Recorder is not yet validated on real glasses, and its audio quality is unconfirmed.
- There is no export yet: Share sends text only, and clearing GlintOS’s data or uninstalling it deletes your memos.
- Speech-quality 16 kHz mono, up to 60 minutes per memo, with no rename, transcription or search.
- One app uses the microphone at a time; taking it from Captions, Translate or Agents stops that app. Back on the recording screen stops the recording.
Questions.
Do I need an account or API key for Recorder on Maverick AI glasses?
No. Recorder has no sign-in, calls no third-party service and works offline. Your memos stay on your phone.
Which microphone does Recorder use?
The glasses’ directional microphone, aimed at the wearer, so it mainly picks up your voice. It never uses the phone’s microphone, and audio is speech quality, 16 kHz mono.
What if the glasses disconnect while I record?
The audio so far is saved as a normal memo, and a notice says why it stopped. Recording does not resume by itself after the glasses reconnect.
Can I copy recordings to a computer?
Not yet. Share sends only a text description, and the audio sits in GlintOS’s private storage, which other apps cannot open.
Is Recorder an Everysight app?
No. Recorder is part of GlintOS, an independent project not affiliated with or endorsed by Everysight or Google.
