Dumpster Fire Reflective of the Brand

This is by far the worst app I have ever downloaded in the history of owning an iPhone. Constantly have to redownload, never can connect to the inexplicably erroneous “Ray-Ban” network which prevents use of the glasses in general. All of that on top of the shady engineering that went into the glasses just shows this was a cash grab experiment in the wearable device department for both Facebook/Meta and RayBan. Most often than not, they don’t even stay connected to your device for longer than a few minutes. I regret even making the purchase solely at the hands of the app devs, you all royally dropped the ball on this one. I shouldn’t have to call support every single time the glasses need to be updated. Wish I could rate no stars, you all don’t even deserve half of one.

Don’t waist your money

Got them in today and was super excited. I go to download the app to start pairing and it does absolutely nothing. Every time I try to log in it just resends me to the sign in page even after resetting my phone, uninstalling and re-downloading, changing to an older version of the app, as well as trying it on my roommates phone. There is no WiFi or phone signal issues either. Trying to contact customer support is a joke you have a better shot at winning the lottery then getting them to help you. My best word of advice is don’t purchase or return them asap.

Unable to export photos from View app to iPhone

I have had my Ray Ban Stories and Facebook View app for a few weeks now. I have always had trouble exporting any pictures or videos from the Facebook View app. When I try to export a video or photo from the View app to my phone I get an error saying “ export has failed. Try again? No matter how many times I try to export anything, it fails with the same error. Any pictures from the Ray Ban Stories show up in the app with a explanation mark ! in the upper left corner of the photos or video’s. There is no way to get photos from the glasses or video’s into my phone without using the view app. The glasses and my iPhone 13 Pro connect via the Ray Ban Stories wifi, but exports still fail repeatedly.Any help would be appreciated.

Ok so far!

Lots of bad reviews made me worried to even give it a try. It was an easy and painless pairing and setup, and my first photos and videos worked with no problem. Sound quality for music surprising good. I checked memory usage and thus far hasn’t been a memory hog (albeit limited use). Ray Ban optical quality is great. I’ll hold off on a five star rating until it has passed the test of time. My wife liked mine so much she got her own pair with a style that she liked better. I can’t comment on battery life yet. Per the app and my Facebook settings, privacy shouldn’t be an issue although I don’t trust Meta. I’ll be watching to see if people find additional stealth tracking (yeah, I know my phone does it regardless now). Too bad individual liberty is no longer valued. But I digress—app functions well so far!

Stories are buggy to say the least

Connection is extremely unreliable. I am wondering if this is an iOS15 (new release) problem and will be addressed by Facebook. I hope so. Taking videos and pictures actually work really well and I can upload them into the app without issue. Where is fails miserably is Bluetooth music listening. Listening to any music (library or streaming) cuts in and out. And that’s having my phone in my hand and looking right at it. Further, the Stories just flat out disconnect for no reason at all. So not only do you get music cutting in and out, you get a few minutes of it before the connection is lost. Oddly enough, go into settings (iOS) and the Stories show connected. I can’t compare these to iOS 14 so I will hold onto them thinking maybe this is due to the new software but if not, these are going back. I like the concept but it’s way too buggy.

App is trash

Got the Wayfarer Stories as a birthday gift. Used them a few times for my son’s basketball games, no problems. A few months pass, I decide to use them because the wife and I will be zip lining and white water rafting. I take pictures and videos and they show in the gallery. Here’s where the problem lies: the app will not load them. I keep getting an “unknown error” message, which seems to be happening because of the newest update to the app allowing 60 second record times. Ray ban customer service suggested clearing the app, and ultimately uninstalling the glasses, deleting all the pics along with it. I’m not about to lose all of my pictures because of this app. Make a fix.

Love Ray Ban but, these. Meh.

I was excited thinking these would have the similar capabilities as Snap/insta360 with huge fashion potential. Product management took 25% Snap, 25% Bose, 25% Ray-Ban, and 25% 1990s gadgetry. 1. Glasses aren’t horribly bulky and 99.9% of the people you talk to while wearing won’t know they are camera glasses.2. The audio is just okay. Listening.3. The mic, well. Go to five below and get yourself the same quality mic.4. Video clarity isn’t horrible. Not go pro or dji quality.The app is straight garbage. Product managers rushed this to market. Hopefully they iterate on it…. I’m sure they are working on a better product that will replace this.6. The app is super basic. Video playback is horrible. 7. Down load is slow. I assume they are restricted by the hardware as it connects via wifi.8. The editing tools are really limited.9. The collage tool misses anything of value.10. Limited size 4:3 and portrait view are your options. 16:9 wasn’t.In the end, this product is worth $150-$200 (that’s a stretch). It’s made in China. Feels like it. Lexotica and Facebook. It’s purely a novelty for people with disposable income. Insta360 go is probably a better and more functional option. Plus, going to the bathroom becomes super creepy for men if someone does know these are camera glasses. This is an honest review by a guy who paid full price.

One of my best Investment this Decade

I love how easy it is to charge very un - noticeable to the eyes others which i love just look like a great pair of Ray Bans … the thing is learn to play with it before you bring it into public because it does connect to music but you can turn it off !! It will talk back but you can also lower the volume and turn it to the minimum so it not noticeable i promise i love these glasses!!! definitely get the warranty and it’s change from regular glasses to sun glasses In seconds I LOVE THESE GLASSES

Needs Apple Watch feature

I’m going to get married in October. I’ll be wearing my Ray-Ban Stories prescription glasses. It’s obtrusive to reach up and press the button every time I want to make a video or picture. Especially if I’m facing my bride as she’s walking down the isle. It would be really nice to have an app extension on my watch that I can tap as needed to take photo and video of her coming down the isle to me. Please make this a feature! Before October! That missing star in my review is that. Everything else is perfect. When I go on walks my music and podcast are right in my ear not obstructing hearing my surroundings. If I want a picture or video while out it’s a tap away. I love it. Except that one missing tap for Apple Watch in those moments where it’s really needed.

Need more insight into storage

One thing that is frustrating is seeing within the phone’s storage setting that the app is using a lot of data. I went into the app and deleted all of my media yet my phone was still showing the app having 18 GB of documents and data. The app needs to better document how much data it is using and explain why deleting media does not change the data shown being used by the phone’s storage setting.I don’t actually believe the app was using that much data, but since there was no real way to verify anything I just logged out, deleted the app, and reinstalled. They should make it easier than this, but one setting I’ve changed is the auto save feature. You’re better off auto saving to your camera roll, allowing iCloud to upload your media, and deleting the media from View to avoid having a storage issue. Not sure how this will work out so we’ll see. Again, FB should make the app more transparent when it comes to how much space your media is using within the app.
