When a person says \u201ccustom prompt,\u201d they\u2019re probably referring to customizing what phrase or shortcut activates the AI glass features instead of using the default.\n\nHere are the key details:\n\n---\n\n## What\u2019s the \u201cprompt\u201d on Meta\u2019s AI Glasses?\n\n- Meta\u2019s Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses include a voice prompt \u201cHey Meta\u201d that activates the AI features \u2014 you say the words to wake up the assistant. ([techtimes.com](https://www.techtimes.com/articles/310107/20250424/ray-ban-meta-ai-upgrade-hey-meta-voice-prompt-other-features-now-available-via-latest-update.htm?utm_source=openai))  \n- Among the features accessed via the prompt are asking about things in your view (e.g. identifying objects), real-time translation, sending messages, controlling music, etc. ([dataconomy.com](https://dataconomy.com/2025/04/24/meta-adds-real-time-ai-features-to-ray-ban-smart-glasses/?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## What \u201ccustom prompt\u201d might mean\n\nWhen someone says they use a **custom prompt**, they may mean one of several things:\n\n1. **Custom wake phrase**  \n   They might want a different phrase instead of \u201cHey Meta\u201d (for example \u201cOkay Glasses,\u201d \u201cListen Meta,\u201d or another personal cue). People often prefer this so it\u2019s more personalized or private.\n\n2. **Quick shortcut/gesture activation**  \n   Instead of using a voice prompt, there may be settings to use a touchpad press, long-press, or gesture to wake the assistant. That could be what they mean by a custom prompt \u2014 not a spoken phrase, but a custom shortcut. Meta glasses allow certain customizable gesture actions. ([engadget.com](https://www.engadget.com/wearables/metas-smart-glasses-have-a-new-shortcut-to-call-and-text-without-saying-hey-meta-213303178.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n3. **Custom command templates**  \n   They might have set up custom phrases for common actions (\u201cHey Meta, log my food,\u201d or \u201cHey Meta, show me directions\u201d) so the way they talk to the glasses feels more natural to them. While not always a \u201cwake phrase\u201d change, these are personalized prompts that they consistently use. There\u2019s early talk from users about asking for \u201ccustom apps and integrations\u201d or \u201ccustom checkpoints.\u201d ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/MetaGlasses/comments/1qjddpn/meta_ai_is_so_limited_right_now_i_wish_i_had_a/?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## What Meta currently offers\n\nBased on recent updates (as of early-to-mid 2026):\n\n- The standard \u201cHey Meta\u201d wake phrase is still the default trigger for voice commands. ([techtimes.com](https://www.techtimes.com/articles/310107/20250424/ray-ban-meta-ai-upgrade-hey-meta-voice-prompt-other-features-now-available-via-latest-update.htm?utm_source=openai))\n- There is a \u201cquick connect\u201d feature: hold down the touchpad to message or call a chosen contact via a preferred platform. This is a kind of shortcut so you don\u2019t always need the wake phrase. ([engadget.com](https://www.engadget.com/wearables/metas-smart-glasses-have-a-new-shortcut-to-call-and-text-without-saying-hey-meta-213303178.html?utm_source=openai))\n- Meta is adding features to make on-device voice-conversation more natural (switching topics, interrupting, etc.). ([androidcentral.com](https://www.androidcentral.com/apps-software/meta/metas-muse-spark-arrives-on-ai-glasses-gen-1-ray-ban-display-waits-for-now?utm_source=openai))\n- Accessibility additions like \u201cConversation Focus,\u201d which can be activated by voice or a long-press gesture, are also available. ([uploadvr.com](https://www.uploadvr.com/meta-glasses-get-conversation-focus-early-access/?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\nIf you want, I can check whether Meta has added full custom wake-phrases yet (or if that\u2019s coming), depending on your glasses model. Do you want me to look up for your specific glasses (Ray-Ban, Oakley, etc.)?"
