Navigate

Navigate supports walking and cycling directions. Route information, including turn instructions, remaining distance, and road names, appears directly on the glasses, reducing the need to check your phone while traveling.

For safety, we do not recommend using Navigate while riding a motorcycle or driving a motor vehicle.

 

Start Navigate

Search for a destination and start navigation in the App

To plan a new route, use the Even Realities App:
  1. Open Navigate in the App.
  2. Select a destination using either of the following methods:
    • Search for a place: Enter a place name or address, or select a category shortcut such as Coffee. Then select a destination from the search results.
    • Select a location on the map: Touch and hold a location on the map to set it as your destination.
  3. On the Destination page, select a travel mode:
    • Walking
    • Cycling
  4. To include additional stops, tap the “+” button in the upper-right corner. You can add up to five waypoints.
  5. After confirming the route and estimated travel time, tap Start to begin navigation.

Navigate to a saved address from the glasses Menu

After saving frequently used addresses such as Home or Office in the App, you can start navigation directly from the glasses:

  1. Open Menu on the glasses.
  2. Swipe to Navigate, then single-tap the TouchPad.
  3. Swipe to select a destination, then single-tap the TouchPad again to begin navigation.

The glasses Menu displays only saved addresses. To navigate somewhere else, search for the destination in the App or start navigation with Even AI.

Start navigation with Even AI

After activating Even AI, say your destination and travel mode. For example:
“Hey Even, navigate to my home by walking.”

 

View directions and switch maps

During navigation, the glasses display real-time route guidance, including:
  • Turn instructions, such as Head east
  • Distance, such as 150 m
  • Current and upcoming road names
  • Waypoints
  • Total distance
  • Estimated travel time
  • Estimated arrival time
 
Single-tap the TouchPad to switch between the following map views:
  • Mini Map: Uses a heading-up view. The map rotates based on your direction of travel, making it easier to follow the next step of the route.
  • Full Map: Uses a fixed north-up view. The map remains stationary while the position arrow rotates with your orientation, helping you understand the overall route and direction.

The position arrows on the glasses and in the App reflect the orientation of their respective devices:
  • The arrow on the glasses is based on the direction the glasses are facing.
  • The arrow in the App is based on the direction the phone is facing.

 

End Navigate

You can end the current navigation in either of the following ways:
  • Double-tap the TouchPad and confirm that you want to end the feature.
  • Tap Exit on the navigation page in the App to return to the Routes page.

When you arrive at your destination, an arrival message appears and navigation ends automatically after approximately four seconds.

 

Manage saved addresses

In Navigate in the App, you can save frequently used addresses such as Home and Office. Once saved, these addresses sync to the destination list in the glasses Menu, allowing you to start navigation quickly.

 

Map data and requirements

  • Navigate uses map data provided by Google Maps.
  • During navigation, make sure location services are enabled on your phone, the Even Realities App has permission to access your location, and your phone remains connected to the internet. If you grant the Even Realities App "Always" location access, the glasses can continue loading map information while your phone is locked.
