Rokid Glasses apps come from three places: the features Rokid builds in (the "Hi Rokid" AI assistant, live translation, teleprompter, navigation, camera and meeting notes), the Agent Store inside the Hi Rokid phone app, and third-party phone apps that use Rokid's public SDK to put text in the lens. There's no classic app store with games and streaming apps for the display model, and community apps you sideload are unofficial.

This guide is current as of November 2026: what each kind of app does, how to install it, the limits and the US price.

What apps do Rokid Glasses have?

Rokid Glasses (with display) ship with a set of built-in features that cover most daily use, and you add more through the Agent Store in the Hi Rokid app. On top of that, any phone app can show text in the lens through Rokid's CXR-L SDK, and phone notifications are mirrored to the glasses.

Here is the whole picture in one table:

Built-in Rokid Glasses features

The built-in features are what most owners use every day, and they don't need any extra app. Rokid's product page lists them, and the glasses show everything in green on a dual-eye Micro-LED display rated at 1,500 nits.

  • Hi Rokid AI assistant. Say "Hi Rokid" to ask questions, and ask about labels, menus or objects in front of you. The camera lets the assistant see what you see.

  • Real-time translation. Live subtitles of the other person's words in your field of view. Rokid says up to 89 languages.

  • Teleprompter. You load your notes in the Hi Rokid app, and they scroll in the lens while you speak.

  • Navigation. Turn-by-turn directions in view, so you don't keep checking your phone.

  • Camera. 12 MP Sony sensor, photos and video up to 3K at 30 fps, with a capture indicator.

  • Meeting notes. Voice-to-text notes and meeting transcription with speaker identification and a summary.
  • According to iDevice, Hi Rokid 1.16.0 for iPhone (late October 2026) added a head-up mode that shows information when you raise your head, interval recording and spoken output for Bluetooth audio translation.

    The Rokid Agent Store: third-party apps for Rokid Glasses

    The Agent Store is Rokid's official place for third-party apps. It sits inside the Hi Rokid app on iPhone and Android, and the apps are AI agents: small voice-driven tools that answer, look things up or guide you through a task in the lens.

    Rokid brought the Agent Store, its YodaOS platform and the AIUI framework to the US in August 2026, together with a creator program (AndroidGuys). At IFA Berlin in September 2026, Rokid said it had around 35,000 registered developers and more than 500 agents in the store (Android Headlines).

    How to install an agent:

  • Update first. Update the Hi Rokid app and the glasses firmware. New features often need both.

  • Open the Agent Store from the home screen of the Hi Rokid app.

  • Pick an agent and tap Install.

  • Start it with your voice on the glasses.
  • How do I install other apps on Rokid Glasses?

    There are two clean ways and one risky one. The clean ways are phone apps that use Rokid's SDK and phone notifications. The risky one is sideloading Android packages onto the glasses with community tools.

    Phone apps that use the Rokid SDK

    Rokid's public CXR-L SDK lets an Android or iPhone app open its own view in the lens through the Hi Rokid app. You install the app from Google Play or the App Store as usual, and the first time it connects, Hi Rokid asks whether the app may use your glasses. Hi Rokid may call it an "unverified app". That's normal for SDK apps, and you allow it once.

    On Android there's no Rokid review step for such apps. Rokid's iOS SDK needs a registered Rokid developer account, so fewer iPhone apps use it.

    Phone notifications

    If an app has no Rokid support at all, its notifications can still reach the glasses. Turn on notifications in Hi Rokid and you'll see about two lines of text in the lens. On an iPhone in the EU, iOS 26.3 and newer may also need Settings, Notifications, Notification Forwarding.

    Sideloading: what the community does

    The glasses run YodaOS-Sprite, which is based on Android, and developers have found ways to push their own APK files onto them. The community list awesome-rokid collects many of these projects: navigation with Google Maps, messaging clients, a phone mirror, small games and app managers. The list itself says it is "not an official Rokid catalog", and some projects use private APIs of other services. An unofficial patcher that adds YouTube got its own article on MIXED.

    Try sideloading only if you're a developer and accept that an update can break it.

    Rokid Glasses app development

    Rokid has three tools for developers, and which one you need depends on where your app runs.

  • AIUI Studio (agents for the Agent Store). A browser-based tool where you describe an agent in plain language and test it in a simulator before you try it on real glasses. Rokid launched it globally at IFA 2026.

  • CXR-L SDK (phone apps). Public, for Android and iOS. Your app builds a simple view in the lens (text fields in a layout) and updates it. It can also stream the glasses' microphone as 16 kHz audio. Taps on the glasses don't reach your app in this mode.

  • CXR-S (apps that run on the glasses). For developers who build an app for the glasses themselves and pair it with a phone app.
  • A fourth kit, CXR-M, is only for Rokid's business partners.

    What about Rokid AR glasses like the Max 2?

    Rokid Max 2 and the other Rokid AR glasses are a different kind of product. They are display glasses you plug into a phone, laptop or console, and they act as a big private screen, so the "apps" are whatever runs on the device you connect.

    Rokid also sells Station 2, an Android TV box for its AR glasses, on its own store for $299 (November 2026). It brings Google Play apps to the AR glasses. None of this applies to Rokid Glasses with display.

    Rokid Glasses limits to know before you buy

  • No big app store. The Agent Store has AI agents, not games or streaming apps.

  • Green text only. The display is monochrome green, made for short text, not photos or video.

  • Taps stay on the glasses. SDK apps on your phone show text but don't get your touchpad gestures.

  • The phone app is required. Hi Rokid handles pairing, settings, updates and permissions. Some features are limited without a phone connection.

  • Rokid Glasses 2. A new model went on sale in China on October 27, 2026. A US version isn't confirmed.
  • How much are Rokid Glasses and where to buy them in the US?

    On November 13, 2026, Rokid's official store at global.rokid.com listed Rokid Glasses (with display) at $619 on sale, down from a regular price of $739. The store offers worldwide shipping, free shipping over $60, 30-day returns and a 1-year limited warranty.

  • Prescription: Rokid sells an inner prescription frame for $39, rated +6.00 to -16.00.

  • Other US retailer: B&H Photo sells the RV101 model. We couldn't check its price today, so compare before you buy.
  • Hinty Voice Assistant on Rokid Glasses

    Hinty Voice Assistant gives you a short suggested answer one to two seconds after someone asks you a question in a job interview or a meeting, also using your own documents like a resume, notes or PDFs. We're adding Rokid Glasses support, and it works like this:

  • Your phone listens. Microphones in glasses focus on the wearer, so the phone on the table hears both you and the other person.

  • Hinty spots the question and prepares a hint.

  • On Android, the hint goes straight into the Rokid lens with Rokid's own tools, in green: the question on top, the answer below. Hi Rokid asks once whether Hinty may use the glasses.

  • On iPhone, the hint arrives as a notification of about two lines.
  • Smart glasses support is in testing. Testers get it first, testing is free, and we don't have dates yet. Our step-by-step Rokid Glasses setup guide shows every screen, and you can join the testers on our smart glasses page.

    If you use a live assistant in a conversation, tell the other person. In some US states, everyone in the conversation has to agree.

    Hinty is not affiliated with or endorsed by Rokid.

    Works today in Chrome: live hints in Meet, Zoom and Teams

    You don't have to wait for glasses support. The Hinty Voice Assistant Chrome extension works today in Google Meet, Zoom and Teams in the browser:

  • In a client meeting, the client asks about delivery times and Hinty shows the answer from your own price list or notes.

  • After a presentation, someone asks a tough question in the Q&A and you get a short answer with the key figure from your slides.

  • In a video interview, the recruiter asks "Why should we hire you?" and you see a hint built from your resume.
  • FAQ

    What apps can you use on Rokid Glasses?


    Built-in features (Hi Rokid AI assistant, translation, teleprompter, navigation, camera, meeting notes), AI agents from the Agent Store in the Hi Rokid app, and phone apps that use Rokid's SDK. Phone notifications also reach the lens.

    Is there an app store for Rokid Glasses?


    Yes, the Agent Store inside the Hi Rokid app on iPhone and Android. It holds AI agents, more than 500 according to Rokid in September 2026, not games or streaming apps.

    How do I install apps on Rokid Glasses?


    Open the Hi Rokid app, go to the Agent Store, pick an agent and tap Install. For phone apps with Rokid support, install them from your phone's store and allow them once in Hi Rokid.

    Do Rokid Glasses work with iPhone?


    Yes. Hi Rokid is available for iPhone and Android. Fewer third-party apps reach the lens from an iPhone, because Rokid's iOS SDK needs a developer account, but notifications work on both.
