This release introduces an optional integration with Meta AI Glasses, allowing automotive service technicians to capture inspection photos and video hands-free while performing vehicle walkarounds and multi-point inspections (MPI). Instead of holding a phone or tablet, a technician can wear the glasses and stream/record directly into UP Scan, where media uploads to the customer's repair order exactly as it would from the built-in device camera. How it works: With the Meta AI app installed and glasses paired, the user taps the glasses icon in UP Scan, registers the connection through the Meta AI app, grants connection permission, and connects their glasses. A toggle ("Use Glasses Instead of Camera") routes capture through the glasses, and a Preview screen displays a live stream to confirm the connection. Video is captured at 720x1280, 30 FPS. If no glasses are present, the app clearly displays "No active devices" and all standard camera functionality remains fully available — the glasses are an optional accessory, not a requirement.
DealerCRM Watch

DealerCRM on your wrist. A watch is not a small desktop. When a customer is standing in front of you, your hands are busy and a phone is the wrong thing to be holding. DealerCRM Watch is built for the ten seconds you actually have. SEE WHAT NEEDS YOU A new lead, a reply, an appointment about to start — the notification takes you straight to it, ready to act. No hunting. RUN THE MEETING FROM YOUR WRIST Start it from your calendar so it lands on the right appointment. Log a test drive, write-up, appraisal, trade-in or credit app as it happens. Watch the clock run. End it — and mark it sold — without opening your phone. TALK TO IT "Call Jane." "Text Peter I'm running ten minutes late." "Do we have a Bronco?" "Log a test drive." "How many leads today?" OliviaAI turns what you say into the thing you meant — and always shows you the message before it sends. YOUR DAY, NOT A DASHBOARD Your to-do list and today's calendar, the same ones on your phone and desktop. Tick a task off, or call the customer behind it. NOTHING GOES OUT BY ACCIDENT Every message shows the exact recipient and the exact text before you approve it. Nothing is ever sent on your behalf. WORKS WHEN THE SIGNAL DOESN'T Notes and updates you make offline are saved and sync when you're back — once, never twice. Requires a DealerCRM account. Pair in seconds from the DealerCRM app on your phone; no password is ever typed on the watch. Not a customer yet? Tap "See a demo" to explore with sample data.
