Focals, based in Waterloo, introduces native notification actions for Android

North, based in Waterloo, Ontario, has added a new feature to its Focals smart glasses, which allows users to see native notification actions on Android.

Now users can turn on Focals' new Android Notification Actions feature to view developer-activated shortcuts, such as deleting or archiving for Gmail.

In addition, the user can now click on the D-pad Loop's ring to choose to respond with intelligent answers or speech synthesis. Smart answers offer relevant answers based on the content of the message, while dictation uses the built-in microphone to let you say what you want to answer.

In the current state of things, these features are only available to Android Focals users and constitute an "experience" according to North.
