Google has updated its Glassware collection, apps available for the Google Glass device, with more apps that range from fitness to music to news.
Announcing the 12 updates on June 24, Google said its apps for Glass have increased by 80 percent in the last six months, the Christian Science Monitor reported.
Glass users can now obtain Runtastic, which is an app to help with fitness training; a news app for The Guardian with stories and news updates; and Shazam, which identifies a song upon command.
The connected eyewear device became available in the U.K. for the first time this week. Glass, which had not previously been sold outside of the U.S., can be purchased in the U.K. for £1,000 ($1,700).
Glass remains controversial after various negative reports that have included a bar altercation and accusations of privacy invasion from people around a Glass wearer. Some aren't sure if British people will take kindly to the device.
"It's good news for UK customers keen to play with the Glass without having to jump through the numerous hoops to import it from America," Stuart Miles, the founder of technology website Pocket-lint, told the Daily Mail after Glass became available in the U.K. "Whether it will be enough to convince Brits to embrace the wearable tech, however, is yet to be seen."
In another update, Google announced that a new version of Glass with 2GB of memory would begin shipping soon, something that sparked anger among early adopters who will have to stick with their 1GB devices, PCWorld reported.
Google doesn't plan to upgrade current devices to 2GB of RAM.
"Throughout our open beta program, you can expect to see us make changes here and there. We won't be swapping devices, but you'll continue to see improvements with our software updates," said a Google representative quoted by PCWorld.
