You can tell Glass to do lots of things like a Google search, take a picture, record a video, get 
directions, send a message, and make a call. All you have to do is say the magic words "ok 
glass" and then say your voice action aloud. 

 

 
Glass must be activated and your display must be on in order to start a voice action. To get 
Glass to wake up and listen, tap the touchpad once or lift your head to the Head Wake angle (if 
you have Head Wake Up on).

Once you say "ok glass," you'll see all available voice actions. Scroll through this list by tilting 
your head up or down or swiping forward and back. 
 
You can also double tap the touchpad while on your Home screen to open the voice action list 
without speaking. Once you do, you can scroll through the available list of actions using the 
touchpad. The touch menu looks a little different than the voice-activated menu; the actions are 
listed horizontally rather than vertically. However, the list of actions and their functions are the 
same. 
Continue through this guide to learn some more Glass voice actions. 
 
 
Pictures and video 
 
Pictures and videos on Glass lets you capture specific images and videos right in the moment 
and virtually hands-free. 
 
 
Pictures 
 
Use Glass's camera to take crystal clear high resolution pictures in low or bright light. 
 
Glass is equipped with a 5 MP camera and some software improvements, like HDR, to detect 
low light situations and automatically capture a brighter, sharper picture. Best of all, this
