Oh, plenty of what i want is gimmicky. GIVE ME A HUD!
But i can think of things like overlaying arrows on the environment when getting walking directions, setting reminders by seeing things/people, being able to fully view 3d objects when doing things like identifying something (say a flower you’ve seen) by image

I want a health bar.
Yeah, as i say - i love the idea. The practical reality, at least so far, is shit. And i don’t see any way for it to get better rather than worse
