Glass 2.2.1

Fixes

• Wi-Fi list on every Android version. Glass now detects when location is off from Android 6 onwards (it used to check only from Android 9), and tells you to turn it on: Android only returns nearby networks to apps while location is on.
• No more endless search. If the system refuses a scan or never reports back, Glass shows "No networks found" instead of "Looking for networks…" forever.
• The network you're connected to stays in the list even when a scan returns nothing.
• Glass logs why a scan failed: adb logcat -s Glass.

Install

Glass 2.2

What's new

• Wi-Fi scanning on recent Android TVs. On Android 13 and later, Glass now uses the Nearby Wi-Fi devices permission, so it can list networks without location turned on. On Android 9 to 12, where the system only returns networks while location is on, the Control Center now says so instead of searching forever.
• scripts/install.sh grants the new permission and turns location on.

Glass 2.1

What's new

• Fills any TV screen. Glass now scales its layout to the screen, whatever resolution and pixel density the TV reports. On some Android TVs, the home screen and Control Center used to look tiny.
• New languages: Spanish, Portuguese (European and Brazilian) and German, in addition to English and French. Glass follows the device language.
• The Memory/Storage labels in the Control Center now fit every language.
