An independent developer has published Quietglass, a suite of FREE apps for the Even Realities G2 smart glasses built on Even’s official Even Hub SDK. It is an AMBITIOUS catalog. It also comes with an admission MOST launches would bury: according to its own README, “Nothing here has been VERIFIED on physical G2 hardware yet.”
Nineteen Apps, Not Eighteen
The project’s English README opens with “Eighteen apps,” but its tables list TEN apps that run without setup and NINE that need a self-hosted server, for a total of NINETEEN, as MIXED reported on October 9. The build line agrees: “2112 tests ยท 19 builds.” The gap traces to an October 8 commit that ADDED Xaventra HUD, a voice-controlled front end for a self-hosted agent, WITHOUT updating the heading. MIXED also found a stale “2046 tests” figure, which is exactly 2,112 minus the 66 tests credited to the new app.
What the Apps Do
The no-setup group includes FlowList for HANDS-FREE branching checklists, PostureLens to flag a head held forward too long, DecibelGuard as a noise-dose meter, and Cadence, a VISUAL metronome. The reason for Cadence is plain HARDWARE: the README notes that “The G2 has no speaker, so the beat is visible.” The self-hosted group covers LIVE translation (including Belarusian, which the G2’s built-in Translate does NOT offer), Home Assistant dashboards, 3D printer status, and production schedules.
The scope is DELIBERATE. The developer says the project only builds “what the G2 does not already do,” and archived its own teleprompter, calendar, assistant, and map apps because Even already ships Teleprompt, Dashboard, Even AI, and Navigate. Every app supports German and English, and the apps share NO runtime library, so one CANNOT break another.
Simulator Only, for Now
Every app is confirmed rendering in Even’s SIMULATOR against SDK 0.0.16, which is not the SAME as running on a pair of glasses. The privacy claims, such as PostureLens using “no camera, no history” and DecibelGuard discarding audio after computing a level, are the developer’s description of the code. The code is public on GitHub, so those claims can be CHECKED, but no INDEPENDENT audit has been published.
The most USEFUL output for OTHER developers may be the project’s SDK notes. Its “most expensive” trap: a tap event arrives with NO event-type field, because proto3 omits fields set to their default value and a click is zero. An app that treats the missing field as “unknown” will silently IGNORE every tap.
Why It Matters
Even Hub opened as a PUBLIC app catalog in April 2026, and Even has spent early October on fundamentals, requiring NEW firmware on the G2 and R1 ring for app version 2.3.2. Third-party work like Quietglass is how a display-glasses platform earns UTILITY beyond its first-party apps. The test for buyers is SIMPLE: WAIT until someone runs these apps on REAL G2 hardware.
