NearLens vs Yonder

NearLens helps you notice supported smart glasses and privacy signals nearby. When a scan is active and the app is open, NearLens uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to detect nearby devices and alert you when supported devices are found. When a device broadcasts a compatible privacy signal, NearLens shows the camera and microphone activity it reports, including do-not-record requests. Keep a local detection history and explore on-device summaries and answers with Privacy Intelligence. Detection depends on the devices and signals available nearby. Reported activity is not independently verified, and a do-not-record signal is a request, not a guarantee that recording is prevented. NearLens scans only while the app is open.

Yonder displays your text in large, bold type across the full screen of your iPhone or iPad — designed to be read clearly from across a room. Whether you're holding up a sign, running a cue card, or prompting a speaker, Yonder gets your message seen. • Cards – Create cards with custom text, colors, fonts and styles. Every card is full screen, high contrast, and built for distance. • Decks – Group cards into decks and present them in sequence.
