Corporate synergy alert: People using Meta’s Ray-Ban Stories smart glasses can now take advantage of hands-free calling and messaging on WhatsApp, as well as having the glasses read incoming messages.

Ray-Ban Stories users can say, “Hey Facebook, send a message to (contact or group)” to send a WhatsApp message hands-free, or, “Hey Facebook, call (contact)” to initiate a call.

They can also opt to have their devices announce and read incoming messages sent via WhatsApp.
