Meta Limits the Usage of an AI Glasses Feature, Even if You Pay for a $20 Subscription 01.07.2026

CNET

Meta is implementing usage limits on its "conversation focus" feature for Meta Smart Glasses, which amplifies the voice of a person speaking to the wearer, even in noisy environments. Free users will be restricted to three hours per month, with no option to track usage or roll over unused time. For paying subscribers, the Meta One Premium plan, costing $20 per month, still imposes a 15-hour monthly cap on this feature, though it is unclear what additional fees may apply beyond these limits. This new policy comes as Meta recently partnered with EssilorLuxottica for new $299 models, including a Kylie Jenner-endorsed edition, and amid past controversy regarding facial recognition software development for the glasses.
