TROUBLESHOOTING
If your glasses aren’t turning on, try the following steps:
1. Make sure the glasses have the power switch turned on by pushing the switch towards the front of the frame. If you see a red dot next to the switch, that means the glasses are OFF.
2. Dock the glasses inside the charging case and charge for an hour. Make sure the charging pins on the case and glasses are clean. If the glasses are charging, the LED indicator on the case will show orange (take out "pulsing"). If you don’t see a charging indicator, try charging the case from a different outlet, with a different cable, with a different charger or with a USB-C charging block.
3. If you’ve tried steps 1 to 2 and your glasses still don’t turn on after several hours of charging, you can request a replacement pair.
Please note:
- Your glasses and charging case should arrive partially charged.
- Using the case is the only method to charge your glasses.
- Software updates requires a minimum charge level that varies depending on temperature. The Meta AI app shows a warning message if your glasses need more charge to proceed with an update.

If your glasses aren’t pairing with the Meta AI app, try the following troubleshooting steps.
Make sure that:
1. Your glasses are charged and turned on: The power switch should be in the ON position. The white LED will blink while your glasses turn on. When it turns solid green, you’re ready to continue. 2. Bluetooth is enabled on your phone.
3. Your glasses are unpaired on your phone. If you are on iOS, go to your phone's bluetooth settings. Tap the info icon next to your glasses from the list of devices. Tap Forget This Device. This step isn't necessary on android devices.
4. The device is in pairing mode: Place the glasses inside the case then press and hold the button on the backside of the case for 5 seconds. The light blinks blue, indicating that the device is ready to pair. Your glasses will appear in the app when they're in pairing mode, which can take up to 10 seconds.

1. Slide the “On/Off button” first back (Switch Off) and then forward (Switch On)
2. Try quitting the Meta AI app and reopening it.
If you’re still unable to pair to the app during setup, please contact Customer Care.
When you say “Hey Meta” or "OK Meta", the notification LED will pulse white and an earcon will play to let you know the glasses are ready for your voice command. If you don't get a response to your voice command, check the following:
- Make sure your glasses are on and the battery is charged.
- Check that both Voice and "Hey Meta" are enabled in the settings of Meta AI.
- Make sure there's no background noise that may interfere with voice controls.
- Make sure your phone is within Bluetooth distance of your glasses.
While the majority of USB-C chargers should work with the charging case, there are some specific chargers that might not be compatible with the charging case. If you are using one of these incompatible chargers, you might see:
1. A consistent and persistent pulsing orange or green pattern on charging case LED.
2. Missing charging icon in Meta AI app.
If you are running into issues with charging your charging case, try connecting another USB-C cable to your case. If the case is still not charging, consider using another adapter.
If the case is still not charging, you can do a reset with the following actions:
1. Take glasses out of case.
2. Press and hold the back button on case for at least 16 seconds, or until the LED begins flashing white.
3. Release the button and wait for the LED to stop flashing white.
4. Redock the glasses and plug in the case again to charge.
The Import button should be visible if the glasses are paired with the app, the glasses are on, the phone's Wi-FI and Bluetooth are on, and there are pending captures. If the Import button is not visible, try restarting the glasses (turn them off, then turn them on) and restarting the app. If this also doesn't solve the issue, try unpairing and re-pairing the glasses and make sure they are are not paired to another phone.
If ‘Hey Meta' or 'OK Meta’ is not responding consistently after setting up voice commands then:
- Go into your glasses' Voice settings in the Meta AI app and check that the Voice toggle is on.
- Go into "Hey Meta" preferences from the Voice settings and make sure that the "Hey Meta" toggle is on.
- You can also turn on the Wake sound toggle here if it is not already on.
- Try saying 'Hey Meta' or 'OK Meta' again.
- If the wake word was recognized, you should see the LED blink white in response. If the Wake sound toggle is on, you will also hear an earcon in response.
- If that still doesn't work, try toggling off and then back on both the Voice and "Hey Meta" options, and try again.
- If still not working, then another issue with voice commands is going on, likely that a microphone is blocked.
To troubleshoot a mic being blocked resulting in no earcon response from 'Hey Meta or 'OK Meta':
- Turn off toggle in Meta AI app
Try 'Hey Meta' or 'OK Meta' again:
- If working (Earcon response to Hey Meta or 'OK Meta') then user should keep the toggle off.
If call recipients are having trouble hearing you on calls (audio is broken/choppy/or extremely quiet) then:
- Turn off toggle in Meta AI app
Try calling again:
- If working (call back the recipient, if they can hear you better in same environment as before) then user should keep the toggle off
- If still not working, then another issue with calling is going on, user should keep toggle turned on and try disconnecting/reconnecting your glasses
Here are some things you can try:
1. Move your phone closer to your glasses, and try again.
2. In your phone's Bluetooth settings, confirm that your Bluetooth is on and your glasses are connected.
3. Turn Bluetooth off and on again.
4. Close the Meta AI app and then restart it.
5. Restart both your phone and glasses.
6. Unpair your glasses from the Meta AI app, and then remove them from your phone's Bluetooth list of devices. Then, pair your glasses again.
On Android phones, for problems with calls or listening to music: in your phone's Bluetooth settings, make sure your glasses are connected for calls and audio.
Live videos from your glasses will be lower resolution than recorded videos from your glasses or phone. You can improve resolution/video quality by ensuring that you:
1. Have a strong 5G Wi-Fi or cellphone signal
2. Are close to your phone
3. Keep your phone in a front pocket or in front of you
4. Are disconnected from other Bluetooth devices
If glasses do not properly fit the user, you may be having issues with wear detection. You can first try taking the glasses off then put them back on. If that does not work, try powering off the device and powering back on. Finally, if that does not succeed, you can disable wear detection in Settings > Your Glasses > Wear Detection. This will ensure the glasses are treated as "On" whenever powered on and hinges are open.
Note: When Wear Detection is turned off, some features like auto-pause/auto-play music and Verified Sessions will be disabled.
Spotify Tap only works with users on Android OS 6.0 or higher and July 2023 security patch. Spotify app must be downloaded and logged in on your device. Please ensure your apps and system are updated to the most current version.
For Android troubleshooting:
1. Make sure that your app is open (or in the background) and logged in during your Spotify Tap session.
2. Confirm the Spotify app has "Permissions" set to "Nearby Devices" in Android Settings (Android 12 and above).
3. Confirm the Spotify app Battery setting in Android settings is set to '"Unrestricted" and retry.
If you continue to have issues on Android or iOS, double-check your Gesture settings in Your Glasses > Gestures > Touchpad and make sure you have Spotify tap configured to a Gesture.
If you are using a Free account then Spotify Taps will be limited, only Premium Spotify accounts will experience unlimited Spotify Tap.
Wet hair, helmets, hats, and other head accessories can occassionally be false-registering as taps on capacitive touch. If you commonly use your glasses in these situations, consider re-mapping the Tap & Hold gesture to 'none'. You can do this by going to Settings > Your Glasses > Gestures > Captouch. This will prevent your glasses from triggering new actions like Assistant Wake or Spotify Tap. If you hardclose media apps on your phone, single tap will no longer pause/play any media sessions.
You can cancel or exit any assistance function or inbound notification by doing a Tap & Hold gesture on the captouch sensor.
Video capture is a power heavy use case and for a small battery with less than 15% charge there is a significant brownout risk (voltage drop that could damage the battery). In order to protect the battery (from brownout) and make sure the users are able to record at least 60 second videos, Oakley enforces certain minimum power thresholds. if the minimum power threshold is not met, then the users are blocked from recording videos. At room temperatures the threshold is 10% at 25°C and 15% at 20°C battery temperatures, however at lower temperatures the battery has higer brownout risk and thresholds are much higher.
To submit a bug on an issue you are seeing, go to Settings, Help & Support. Make sure 'shake phone to report a problem' is on. Then you can shake your mobile device back and forth to trigger our bug reporting feature. In the bug reporting form, please share details on the bug you are experiencing so Meta Help Center team can proactively assist you.
If you dock your glasses into the case and see either a solid red or pulsing red animation from the case LED - this signals that there is a charging error. Charging errors can occur if:
1. Glasses or case are too hot to charge
2. Liquid detected on the glasses or case
If glasses or case are too hot, move out of the sun and to cooler conditions to enable charging.
If glasses or case have liquid present, undock the glasses, clean / dry the nosebridge area, redock glasses into case. You may have to wait for glasses & case to fully dry to enable charging.
If your charging case is no longer responding to button presses or case open/close events, it could be either:
1. Your case has a dead battery and needs to charge
2. You interrupted a case update
If case has a dead battery, connecting the case to a valid charger via USB-C cable should result in an orange pulsing pattern on case indicator before normal case operation resumes.
If you may have interrupted a case update, dock the glasses again with the switch on. Case functionality should be recovered after the update completes.
Here are some things you can try if tapping the “Try again” button isn’t helping:
