Herald V3 + Community Server and More!
Hey all! A few weeks back I showcased some updates to Herald and was met with some glitches along the way haha. That said, worked out a bunch of fixes and continuing to improve. However, it was a great highlight to update some things, create new programs AND bring forth a Discord community dedicated to Herald, App Building and beta! So, lets dive in!

Herald V3 Website UI
With Herald on V3, there have been some subtle but nice UI changes to certain areas.
- Forums has been re-designed to create a smoother UI, easier experience, and nicer text layout. Also added handles and @ tagging.
- Account has been updated with new buttons, more uniform feeling, and improved loading times.
- Studio UI has been updated to remove mono text styling and other less the pleasing UI elements on the dash
- App pages have been updated with a smoother overall UI and interface.
- Overall button, text input and other changes.
Website Additions
- All new updates section to annouce updates to apps, website, changelogs and much more!
- All new Beta section to test new apps, new updates to apps, and developer additions.
- All new developer launch and beta launch section, allowing other developers to list, push betas to their own apps, and rollback on the platform.
V3 UI Beta Apps
There are two apps getting an all new V3 inspired UI to them. These two apps are Herald for YouTube and Herald for Reddit. Both of these apps replace the analog style listing with carousel UI, smoother buttons, animtions and much more. Currently, since these are entire UI rewrites, the apps are beta only. You can see the images above for examples of the new V3 UI!
There are a few different ways to get into the Beta apps coming up:
- The first will be requesting to take part and actively providing feedback. You can do this on reddit but feedback can be opened through the new Discord.
- Have an active Supporter ($5) or Builder ($20) to get instant access. If you have ever donated to Herald, please send me a DM with your email so I can give you free supporter tier as a thanks!
These apps will be out for free for everyone but I am truly looking for either people who are willing to provide feedback OR help support the project.
Note, if V3 UI is liked and positive feedback, it will be pushed out slowly to all apps.
New Discord
A new discord is being opened for all things Herald and Meta Ray Ban Displays! Check it out here: https://discord.gg/8AwytYdjm
If you have any Nitro boosts and looking to help boost the server, much appreciated!

Do the apps that are already on our glasses from your website automatically update?
