Preferences and saved answers

After reading an answer on your glasses, say “keep that answer” to save it. Say what you completed, or ask for a reminder with its day and time. Dot asks which item when the reference is unclear. Use Ask about this answer to link a typed follow-up.

Plan the week above, or open the full companion for preferences and backups. Family-time and low-energy modes, topic preferences and full backups are available in the companion.

Connecting to Even…

Dot opens to its menu with Ask Dot first, followed by Briefings & updates. Swipe to choose, then tap to open. Choose Ask Dot to speak, then tap to send; up to 60 seconds. While reading, swipe down or tap for the next page; swipe up to go back. Tap once, release, then hold for actions such as Dot menu, Ask about this, Keep this answer and Done reading. Jump to topic appears when the message has headings. Resume reading restores your saved page. Double-tap exits; saved messages remain available.

Using Dot Assistant
  1. On the Dot menu, swipe to choose and tap to open. Ask Dot is first and starts a new voice question; Briefings & updates follows.
  2. While speaking, tap to send. While reading, down or tap goes to the next page and up goes back. The last page tells you whether tap closes reading or starts a follow-up.
  3. Prepared for you holds complete private drafts. Today lists your open Dot plans. Answers & saved separates the 48-hour archive from answers you kept.
  4. Double-tap to leave and return to your glasses menu.

For reminders and monitoring, wait for your Dot to confirm it has saved the request. Say “List my monitors,” “Pause my monitor named …,” “Resume my monitor named …,” or “Cancel my monitor named ….” Dot should confirm the result. Voice answers and later monitor alerts use direct Dot Assistant notifications. Set up the iPhone Home Screen alerts app and enable Dot Assistant in Even’s notification apps.

Your iPhone can stay locked. Your Mac can stay asleep. Keep Even running normally and your glasses connected.

Connection settings

Already connected? Your saved connection carries over when you update.

Hey Dot

Open Dot on your glasses first. Start a voice trial to check recognition without sending audio. Listen for questions runs for up to 15 minutes: say “Hey Dot” and your question, then tap to send. A question times out without sending. Standby audio stays on this phone and is discarded.

Off. Starts only when you choose it.

Voice trial results
No live trial yet.
Connection help

Use these controls only when troubleshooting. Check mode does not ask your Dot a question.

The delay applies only to connection checks. Use Save connection after changing these settings.

Check the live Dot connection separately from notification delivery.

Hey Dot feasibility tests

Open Dot from the glasses menu first. This explicit 60-second test checks microphone availability, not the words “Hey Dot.” Audio is discarded immediately: no recording is saved, transcribed or uploaded. Only packet counts and timing stay on this phone. Tap the glasses or Stop test to end early.

Quiet screen blanks Dot’s content; it is not Even’s Display off. For Display off, use tap, release, then hold to open Even’s system menu. Wake it normally afterward. A successful display update does not prove the lenses woke. No test restarts automatically.

Not running. Microphone tests start only when you choose Start.

Last test results (timing only)
No availability test yet.
Check wake engine

Run bundled generated samples to check whether Hey Dot recognition loads and works inside this app. No microphone is opened, no sound is played, and no question or audio is sent to Dot. Keep this phone screen open until the check finishes; leaving it stops the check.

Not running. The wake model loads only when you choose Start.

No generated-audio check yet.
This run’s report
No generated-audio check yet.

This is an engine check, not live Hey Dot listening. It stops after at most 90 seconds while this page runs. Your voice, phone lock and battery use need separate tests. Engine sources and license notices
