How to Set Up & Start Navigation
Navigation on MemoMind One works in two stages: you select and confirm your destination on the phone, and the glasses display the route. Here's the full flow:
- Step 1: Open Maps in the MemoMind app. Tap the Maps tab in the bottom navigation. The app shows a map view with your current location and a search bar at the top.
- Step 2: Search and confirm your destination. Type an address, place name, or business in the search bar. The app suggests matching locations — tap the one you want. Confirm the destination on the preview screen. (You can also tap a saved frequent location — see below.)
- Step 3: Choose your route mode and start. Before starting, select Walking or Cycling as your route mode (you can set a default in Settings — see below). Tap Start. The route is sent to your glasses, and turn-by-turn directions appear on the display.
- Step 4: Follow directions on your glasses. The glasses show your next turn, distance to the turn, and current direction — all in your line of sight. You can keep walking or cycling without looking down. When you arrive, the glasses show "Arrived" and the navigation ends.
Note: You select the destination on the phone — the glasses handle the display and turn-by-turn guidance. This keeps the search and selection experience fast and accurate, while the navigation stays hands-free.
How to Add Frequent Locations
Many trips involve returning to the same places — your hotel, the office, a conference venue, or a favorite local café. Save them once, and navigate there with one tap:
Step 1: Open Frequent Locations. In the Maps tab, tap the Frequent Locations section (or the star icon). This shows your saved places.
Step 2: Add a new location. Tap Add Location. You can:
-
Search for a place by name or address
-
Select a location from your recent searches
-
Drop a pin on the map
Give it a recognizable name — "Hotel," "Office," "Mom's house" — so you can find it fast.
Step 3: Navigate with one tap. From then on, your frequent locations appear at the top of the Maps screen. Tap any one to start navigation — no need to type the address again. Perfect for when you're heading back to your hotel after a day of exploring, or commuting to the office.
How to Set Your Default Route Mode
MemoMind One supports two navigation modes, and you can set a default so you don't have to choose every time:
Step 1: Open Maps Settings. In the Maps tab, tap the settings icon (gear). Find Default Route Mode.
Step 2: Choose Walking or Cycling.
-
Walking Mode — Perfect for dense city centers, transit hubs, and pedestrian-only zones. Routes prioritize sidewalks, crosswalks, and pedestrian paths.
-
Cycling Mode — Designed for eco-friendly travelers exploring cities on two wheels. Routes prioritize bike lanes, bike-friendly streets, and keep your hands securely on the handlebars.
Step 3: Override per trip if needed. Your default mode is pre-selected every time you start navigation, but you can switch to the other mode before tapping Start — for example, if you usually walk but rented a bike for the day.
To deliver the safest and most reliable heads-up experience, navigation is tailored for micro-mobility and pedestrian exploration. Driving mode is not currently supported.
How It Works in Real Life
-
Exploring a new city. Walking through unfamiliar streets — set your destination on the phone, follow turn-by-turn on the glasses, and actually look at the architecture instead of your phone screen.
-
Commuting by bike. Cycling to work — set Cycling as your default, pick the office from frequent locations, and keep both hands on the handlebars while the glasses guide you.
-
Traveling abroad. In a city where you don't speak the language — navigate to a restaurant or museum with Maps, and switch to Translator when you arrive to order or ask questions.
-
Conference week. Staying at a hotel and shuttling to a venue — save both as frequent locations, and navigate between them with one tap all week.
-
Running errands. Walking to the grocery store, pharmacy, and post office — set each destination as you go, and the glasses keep you on route without interrupting your pace.
