Well, the app doesn't use network permissions. That's a good sign.

We need an app that makes those things explode like a grenade.

Yeah, just leave your Bluetooth on and permanently scanning, it'll help identify those creeps that walk around with cameras so you can... Avoid them? Confront them and get yourself recorded live? Have your phone breached and all your data accessed because you left your Bluetooth open and scanning in a public space?

Best solution is to know what these glassholes' gear looks like and avoiding them the analogue way.

What if it's behind you? You can't see it even if you know what it's like while your phone can scan it.

I think we are not far away from the point where it will be virtually indistinguishable from regular glasses with any type of frame.
