September 2026
v2.2.0: Sharper Video, Fixed Rooms, and Drawing
Video now adjusts itself to the connection the wearer actually has, so small text like a nameplate or an error code stays readable when bandwidth drops. Saved rooms and a new set of screens on the glasses mean a wearer with both hands occupied can open a call without reaching for the phone.
- Adaptive video quality: Resolution and bitrate follow the live connection instead of a setting picked once. The manual option is gone, replaced by a quality detail view showing what the link is doing.
- Drawing on the stream and on photos: Draw arrows and circles on a frozen frame or on a full-resolution picture, green by default. Licensed.
- Fixed rooms: Save the rooms your team uses and open a call in the same one every time, with no name to retype.
- Call screens on the glasses: A home screen listing your saved rooms with the words that dial each one, a waiting screen, and an end screen showing the room, the duration, and how many photos went out.
- Instant photo capture: Taking a photo used to cost about three seconds. It now fires immediately, and uploads no longer stall the live video.
- Invite control: Re-copy a link you lost, revoke one you sent by mistake, and links now expire on their own. Licensed.
- Link quality reports the live uplink rather than a sixty second median, on the expert side as well as the wearer's
- Calls react to a dropped network link instead of waiting for it to time out, keep looking for a route, and fall back to another codec when the H.264 encoder stalls
- Change the volume while the phone is locked
- Better echo cancellation, reduced stream delay, improved battery use, and a pop-up when a call connects
Fixes: the expert's voice dropping on a 5G to Wi-Fi switch; a call ending for everyone when one participant was removed; a black screen for the previous controlling expert after handover; video at the wrong size with the glasses disconnected; touch gesture icons cut off in Dutch; text cut off on iOS, with the 64 character room name limit now applied there too.
July 2026
v2.1.4: Face Blurring
Blur faces in the live stream and in captured photos, detected on the phone before anything is sent, so a call about a machine does not become a record of everyone working near it. Switch it on from settings, from a button during the call, or by voice. Licensed.
See face blurring for how it works and what its limits are.
June 2026
v2.1.3
- Turn the camera and microphone off during a call, by button or by voice
- A confirmation screen when ending a call, so a misheard command no longer drops the session
- The wearer is notified when the expert changes something on the glasses
- Room and user name are entered from the home page, and room names are silently lowercased instead of erroring
- English is now the default language when no other is set
- The end-of-trial notice moved from a toast to a dialog that explains what happens next
May 2026
v2.1.2
- The pointer keeps working while sharing your screen, briefly switching the wearer's view to the camera and back
- Changing call quality no longer tears down the connection
- The app holds a background lock only while a call is running
April 2026
v2.1.0: Multiple Experts, Screen Sharing, and Your Own Language
The largest release since the rename. More than one expert can join the same call, the expert can share their screen back to the glasses, and the apps speak five languages beyond English.
- Multiple experts: Up to three in a session, with one main expert holding the controls. Invite the others from inside the call. Licensed.
- Screen sharing: Share a diagram, a manual, or a record back to the wearer's heads-up display. Desktop browsers only. Licensed.
- Languages: Dutch, French, German, Italian, and Spanish, with localised voice commands and a new "Help" command.
- Saved room names: Set a fixed room and join it instantly instead of retyping.
- Fixed zoom levels, with a correction for the G3 wide-angle camera
- Better handling of photo downloads when the wearer or the host leaves the call
- Mobile and tablet layout, reworked participant view, and a rebuilt home page
v2.1.1
- Fix for a broken iOS build
January 2026
v2.0: WizzEye Becomes Iristick.Assist

- Renamed across both apps and the web client
- iOS app, with universal link and custom URL scheme support
- Full HD streaming on both platforms
- The expert can trigger the glasses camera and drive common controls from the browser
- Bluetooth headset support for audio during calls
- Annotation pointer visible on the smart glasses heads-up display
