Apple Watch

With an Apple Watch you can control the glasses from your wrist and keep the iPhone in your pocket. The watch works as a small trackpad: drag to move the cursor, tap to click, and turn the Digital Crown to scroll.

iPhone
  • An iPhone with MiruXR, and an Apple Watch paired with that iPhone, with watchOS 10 or newer.
  • MiruXR on the watch. It comes with the iPhone app. If it is not on your watch, open the Watch app on the iPhone and install MiruXR from the list of available apps.
  1. Connect the glasses and open MiruXR on the iPhone.
  2. Open MiruXR on the watch. The first time, a short guide shows how it works. Tap Start.
  3. If the iPhone asks to use Bluetooth, allow it: the watch talks to the iPhone over Bluetooth.

If the watch says Open MiruXR on your iPhone, MiruXR is not open on the iPhone. Open it and keep the glasses connected.
