The glasses — called Spectacles — have only been sold in three locations: Venice Beach, Big Sur, and Tulsa, Oklahoma. So far, Business Insider hasn't been able to buy a pair yet but thankfully, our friends over at Cheddar were willing to lend us theirs.  As we tried them out in our offices, one question kept coming up: How do I get this to work with my phone? Luckily, Snapchat made it pretty easy to pair the Spectacles with your phone, but it does take a few minutes to figure it out.  Here's how to get the Spectacles working so you can start snapping away.

This screen will come up next, which shows your Snapcode. The Snapcode is scannable.
