Why does reconnecting smart glasses show an old message?
An old message may remain on the frame or be replayed from an application queue. Reconnection restores a link; it does not automatically make queued information current.
Expire content that no longer belongs on screen
Our recommendation is to attach a request identifier and freshness rule to updates. When the user has moved to a different task, discard responses from the old interaction. For state such as progress, the newest state is usually more useful than replaying every intermediate update.
Imagine a task that changed from running to completed while the glasses were disconnected. Replaying all queued progress cards delays the information the wearer needs now. Restore the current task state and preserve detailed history on a surface where the user can choose to read it.
