Configure custom layouts to be displayed on Glance mirrors. Turn on BLE to let Glance mirrors know you're nearby: Interact with a mirror by activating the hand sensor and stating your first name. If the mirror has detected you nearby (via BLE), your layout that is associated with the mirror will display. If you have not yet associated a custom layout with that mirror, then your 'public layout' will display. Setup your mirror by connecting it to a WiFi network, and assigning it a 'default layout'.

Mirror Vision allows you to use your iPhone's camera and stream its feed to your Apple Vision Pro or Mac. It is meant to serve as a mirror for the times your back is towards the foot traffic areas. Fully immersed in Bora Bora or simply sitting at your work desk, prop the iPhone onto a stand, open the app on the iPhone and Vision Pro, and easily view when someone approaches you from behind. - Seamless connection between the devices w/ a reconnect button for those uneasy internet times. - Swap between the front camera and rear camera straight from the Vision Pro/Mac. - Toggle on the torch to lighten up dim areas. (front camera will activate the display as the torch and rear camera will activate the cameras flash) - Hide the UI elements on the iPhone app at the pinch of a button directly from the Vision Pro to free you of distracting light when in dark scenarios. (Camera indicator will always remain on) - App is free but ad-supported
