# How can I manage the OTA (over the air) update notifications on my M-Series smart glasses?

The settings for the M-Series Smart Glasses OTA update notifications mechanism can be found in the Settings application under OTA System Update > OTA Monitor Action. This feature has four modes, each will be described below;

**Disabled** - This option will fully disable the notifications mechanism, preventing the M-Series Smart Glasses from proactively contacting our OTA server to check for updates.

**Notify Only** - This option will check for updates any time the M-Series Smart Glasses are powered on and connected to a network with internet connectivity, and will only show a notification icon in the notification drawer.

**Notify and Alert Once** - This option will check for updates any time the M-Series Smart Glasses are powered on and connected to a network with internet connectivity, and will show a notification icon in the notification drawer as well as displaying a pop-up notification to inform the user that an update is available. This pop-up has two options, to dismiss the notification or initiate an update. The pop-up notification will display only once per power cycle of the M-Series Smart Glasses.

**Notify and Alert Periodically**- This option will function the same as the above, but will display the pop-up notification once per power cycle or once per every 12 hours, whichever comes first.
