Google Glass is a very expensive piece of wearable technology but nevertheless many “Explorers” have spent over $1,500 on their units just to see what the fuss is all about. The device has to be paired up with a smartphone which is why there are companion apps available for both iOS and Android. A feature that has been available for long on the latter has made its way to the MyGlass iOS app. It is now able to sync photos taken with Google Glass.
Google’s wearable device has a 5 megapixel camera and taking pictures through it is as easy as saying “Okay Glass, take a picture.” Previously the pictures taken with Google Glass did not sync with the iPhone so users couldn’t edit or send them using their smartphone.
That changes with the latest update for MyGlass iOS app. Now photos taken with Google Glass will be synced and they will be available both in the MyGlass app as well as in the Photos app in iOS where they were be stored under a separate MyGlass album.
Once the app has been updated the user will be prompted about the sync feature and will be asked if they want to turn the feature on. After this has been done all photos will be synced with the iPhone automatically. MyGlass for iOS is available for free via the App Store.
