Introducing Snap OS 2.0

One year ago, we introduced our fifth-generation Spectacles and brand new operating system, Snap OS. Snap OS is the software that brings Spectacles to life, enabling a new kind of computer and real-time AI-powered experiences that invite people to interact naturally with the world using their hands and voice. 

As we look forward to the public launch of Specs in 2026, we’re excited to introduce Snap OS 2.0, which both offers our community a new interface and makes possible Lenses that will bring utilities, like enjoying content, browsing, and staying in touch – to Spectacles. 

Meet Browser

We've overhauled the Spectacles Browser to make it faster, more powerful, and easier to use. With a new minimalist design that feels right at home in Snap OS, we’ve optimized page loading speed and power usage so you can navigate quickly and easily.

We’ve also introduced a new home screen with widgets and bookmarks, so your favorite sites are just a pinch away. The updated toolbar gives you more control, letting you type or speak a website URL, navigate history, and refresh the page with ease. Plus, you can resize windows to your preferred aspect ratio, just like you would on your laptop, keeping you in charge of the look and feel of your workspace.

Browser now includes WebXR support, opening the door for immersive augmented reality experiences that you can access directly from any WebXR-enabled website.

Spotlight, Reimagined

With the new dedicated Spotlight Lens, we've created a phone-free, larger-than-life experience that spatially overlays your favorite content onto the real world.

Now you can do the dishes while your favorite creator’s video plays seamlessly in front of your eyes, or layout comments in 3D space. The portrait orientation of our Spectacles' field of view is a perfect fit for vertical video, allowing you to enjoy content without ever having to look down at your phone. Easily anchor Spotlight in one place, or have it follow you as you move around.

Snapping & Sharing

We're also making it easier than ever to relive and share your memories. The new Gallery Lens lets you view your Spectacles captures in a spacious, interactive layout. You can scroll through a curving carousel of your videos, zoom in for more detail, and easily organize your favorites before sending them to a friend or posting to your Story on Snapchat.

To make sure you can use Spectacles wherever life takes you, we’re also introducing Travel Mode. This new feature stabilizes AR content and tracking systems while you’re on the move – whether you’re on a plane, train, or sitting in the passenger seat of a car – ensuring your digital content stays anchored and stable.

Lenses Galore

There are hundreds of developers from 30 countries developing Lenses for Spectacles. Some fan favorites include SightCraft by Enklu, NavigatAR by Utopia Labs, and Pool Assist by Studio ANRK, as well as Snap-made Lenses including Finger Paint, Chess and Imagine Together. 

We’re excited to share that soon Synth Riders, a critically-acclaimed freestyle dancing rhythm game, will be available on Spectacles, bringing fun, action-packed titles that people love to play right into the real world. Players will be able to catch notes, ride the rails, and dodge obstacles by moving to the music, all while staying grounded in the real world and with the real people around you.

We’re so excited for you to try Snap OS 2.0, and all of these exciting updates! Thank you so much for building the future of computing together with us.
