I made an app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ch.pocketpc.nearbyglasses
Nearby Glasses is here to warn you when smart glasses are nearby.

I hope it's useful for someone.

The app is now open source (AGPL-3.0), the app is free and rather simple
https://github.com/yjeanrenaud/yj_nearbyglasses

It's also downloadable outside the Play Store. iOS port is in the making. F-Droid is an option, will have to look into that

@yjeanrenaud cool! Please consider publishing it on the F-Droid store, too.

@mosquete @yjeanrenaud that would be nice, yes. having it in fdroid would guarantee it is both open source and without proprietary tracking services.

You can easily check for trackers. This app doesn't have any, and it has fewer permissions than most other apps, too:

Checked for known trackers, not checked for trackers.

@sab38 @CppGuy @mosquete @yjeanrenaud come on, this is not an app that wants to track you.

Sorry. I was just pointing out that many of the tracker detectors only find things using common libraries. I didn't mean to imply anything directly about nearby glasses.
