They're great, but they're too small for my head, so I had to return mine.

I've been using Jlab Jbuds Frames which clip onto my glasses and have directional speakers for discrete audio kind of like the Bose Frames. I like them a lot, but they are kind of noticeable, so I asked for a pair of Razer Anzu smart glasses for Christmas. As far as apps, most of these smart glasses might have apps to customize the interface and sound profiles, but they mostly function like a Bluetooth headset or ear buds and route audio and notifications to the glasses.

Ah ok thanks
It'd be great if they had a camera built in

The Facebook RayBan Stories glasses do have cameras, but just for photo and video recording. Something like the Orcam does use its camera for text to speech and other functions, but snap onto existing glasses and are pretty expensive.

They aren't that good. The headphones are loads better IMO.
