Smart Glasses Feature Now Behind Paywall

Meta has introduced a monthly usage limit for one of the most useful features built into its AI glasses, raising wider questions about whether consumers will increasingly have to pay subscriptions to unlock the full capabilities of devices they have already bought.

What Has Meta Changed?

Owners of Meta AI glasses can now use Conversation Focus for three hours each month without paying a subscription. Anyone wanting more access will need to subscribe to the Meta One Premium plan, which increases the allowance to 15 hours a month.
