Snap OS 2.0 brings a seamless browsing experience directly to your wearable device, letting users access the web without their phones. With WebXR integration, developers and users can now enjoy richer, more immersive AR content. These features set Snap apart as it competes in the rapidly evolving AR market.
Roadmap for Snap Spectacles
Following the successful developer-focused launch, Snap plans to make its advanced Spectacles available to consumers in 2026. This move signals the company’s commitment to making AR technology more accessible and user-friendly for everyone.
