Your Glass and phone or tablet are now connected via Bluetooth. You'll be able to handle
phone calls, receive email notifications and SMS messages sent to your phone, and get
directions via Glass. If your mobile data plan supports tethering, Glass will use its Bluetooth
data tethering connection when out of Wi-Fi range.

On other Bluetooth devices
While Glass should work with most Bluetooth-capable phones, for best results, we recommend
using Glass with an Android or iPhone phone.
If Glass has a Bluetooth connection to your phone, but Bluetooth tethering is disabled or
unsupported, you'll be able to make and receive calls, but Internet usage will be disabled
outside of Wi-Fi range.

able to customize and calibrate your device. For instance, try calibrating the Head Wake Up
feature. This feature will automatically turn off Glass when you take it off, and turn it on when
you put Glass on again. Swipe forward until you see the Head Wake Up card. Tap the card and
select calibrate
Now you should be armed with all the basic knowledge you need to start using Glass.
