Location Tracking & Favourites
VISION keeps track of where you go for your safety and convenience. It works in two parts:
- Location Tracking — runs automatically in the background
- Favourite Locations — places you save in the app for quick navigation
Automatic Location Tracking
Location Tracking starts automatically when your glasses power on — no commands needed. Your position is logged periodically so that:
- Your caretakers can see where you’ve been
- You have a visit history in your app
- Your last known location is available if the glasses go offline
This runs silently in the background. It doesn’t interrupt anything you’re doing.
Visited Location History
Every place you visit is logged to the Location History section of your mobile app. From there you can:
- See a timeline of places you’ve been, with dates and times
- View each visit on a map
- See the place name and address (if known)
- Filter by date range to find a specific trip
- Share a visited location with a caretaker via chat
Favourite Locations
Save places you visit often so you can navigate to them by voice.
Managing favourites (in the mobile app)
Open the Favourite Locations screen in the app to:
- Add a new favourite — save your current location or pick one on the map
- Give it a custom name (e.g. “Home”, “Office”, “Mum’s House”)
- Choose an emoji to tag it (🏠, 💼, 🏥, ⛪, etc.)
- Add an address
- See when you last visited
- Edit or delete any saved location
Favourites sync to the glasses instantly — no restart needed.
Voice commands
On the glasses, use these commands:
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
| ”List favourites”, “Show favourites”, “All favourites” | Reads out every saved place |
| ”Navigate to favourite”, “Go to favourite” | Starts navigation; VISION asks which one |
Chinese: “我的收藏”, “前往收藏”
Example
You: “List favourites”
VISION: “Your favourites: 1. Home. 2. Office. 3. Mum’s House. 4. Clinic.”
You: “Navigate to favourite”
VISION: “Say a number from 1 to 4.”
You: “3”
VISION: “Navigating to Mum’s House, 2.1 kilometers away.”
