# Set up XRAI on XREAL AR
### Set up your XREAL with Android:
**What you need:**
- Your XREAL AR glasses with the included cable
- Your Android device running on Android 11 or later
- Leave your glasses disconnected from your phone to begin
1. **Special instructions for Samsung Devices**
1. If your phone is running on Android 13 or higher: To use XRAI in AR mode, you have to disable Samsung DEX. To do so, go to Settings, find the Connected devices, select Samsung DeX, turn off "Auto start when HDMI is connected" and "Exit DeX".
2. If you can't find this menu, try searching for "DEX" and disable it. If you can't find the option, try searching on the internet for specific instructions.
2. **Setting up XREAL Control Glasses app**
1. You will need to download and install the [Control Glasses app](https://public-resource.xreal.com/download/NRSDKForUnity_2.4.1_Release_20250102/ControlGlasses-1.0.1.apk) from XREAL:
if you see the following, click **Settings**
and select **Chrome** (or alternative browser)
and then press **Install**
wait for the app to install and then press **Done**
 
2. Return to the **XRAI Glass** app (if you haven't already done so please follow the instructions [here)](https://knowledge.xrai.glass/set-up-xrai-app)
Click the device pairing icon at the top of the screen:
Tap the **+** icon next to XREAL:
Wait for the file to download and then press **Open**:
 
If the **Open** button disappeared, open your Downloads page and click **xrai-xreal-gold.apk** and click **Install**:
Wait for the installation to complete and then press **Done:**
 
3. Return to your phone's home screen and locate the **Control Glasses** app and open it:
Grant it the necessary permissions:
 
Click **Add App** and select **XRAI Glass**:
 
4. Connect your XREAL glasses to your phone and the XRAI app should automatically open. Login using the same account you use for the main app. Follow the onboarding instruction screens but select not to setup AR glasses (you already did):
 
5. For more information on how to get the most from your new XREAL glasses, follow the further guide [here](https://knowledge.xrai.glass/use-the-ar-controls-in-xrai-glass) on using the AR controls.
