Thread: Can you read ebooks on Google Glass ?

Is it possible to read books on Google Glass ? I know I can listen to audiobooks, but I'd love to be able to read some too, because I prefer it this way.

I wonder if there's already an app for that. Otherwise I'm thinking to start developing one myself, though I've never tried to develop apps for Google Glass.

I also don't know how the app should work, because the display is pretty small and limited, so it might be pretty difficult.

No, you can't at the moment and I think it would be pretty hard and bad for your eyes to read like that. You better get a Kindle if you want to read books

I started working on an ebook reader app for Glass and I'll release a very basic version pretty soon

That sounds great. Let us know when it's ready, I wanna give it a try.

I wanna give it a try too, though I don't think it can replace my Kindle.

Nice bro, fire up a thread when the app is ready!

Got my vote also, can't wait to see what you've come up with.

Ebooks on Google Glass would be a good idea, but it would probably not have a good viewing format. The lenses are not very big so I'm thinking you'll probably only be able to read a paragraph or so. It would take a while to finish the book.

E-Book on Google Glass! That seems like an attractive idea The only problem for me is that it wouldn't so good for your eyes. I will cause lots of strain on your eyes!

I dont think you can as of now because it would be to small.
