Ray-Ban Meta: How to Find Your Lost Glasses

Quick summary: Ray-Ban Meta glasses have a Find device feature that puts them on a map with an address and the last time they were used. It’s great for “did I leave them at home?”, but it can’t make them beep.

Turn on Find device

1. Open the Meta AI app and tap the glasses icon at the bottom right.
2. Tap the gear at the top right next to your glasses.
3. Scroll down and tap Find device.
4. Don’t see it? Go to the top, tap Updates > Check for updates and install the update, then come back.
5. If you’ve never used it, a pop-up asks you to turn it on. Tap Turn on.

What you see

For each pair connected to your phone (I have two), you get:

• The glasses’ name
• The exact address where they are or were last seen
• Whether they’re nearby or far away
• How long ago they were last used (one of my pairs was 10 hours ago)
• Their spot on a map. Mine looked a bit farther away on the map than they really were.

To turn the feature off, tap the gear at the top right of the Find device screen.

What it can’t do

• There’s no way to make the glasses beep, and the case has no speaker, so it won’t ever beep on these versions. I’m not sure the glasses will ever support it, and it would probably eat the battery.
• There’s no ultra-wideband or directional finding to walk you to them.

So if they fell behind the couch, this won’t help much. It’s for knowing the general location, like where you left them, even when you’re not home.
