The creator of Nearby Glasses made the app after reading 404 Media’s coverage of how people are using Meta’s Ray-Bans smartglasses to film people without their knowledge or consent. “I consider it to be a tiny part of resistance against surveillance tech.”

I just found it in the Play Store. Search for the app's name, "Nearby Glasses."

Of course. Have to protect the privacy of the glasses wearers.
