Enable ADB Debugging on the Vuzix Blade
The Blade, by default, will have ADB (Android Debug Bridge) debugging disabled for security and privacy reasons.
In any new versions of the Blade OS, we can enable ADB Debugging using the below steps. If you are having trouble with this please reach out to the Support team.
Go to the Settings App and navigate to System > About
