Catalysis of the hydrolysis of glucosyl compounds, substances containing a group derived from a cyclic form of glucose or a glucose derivative. Catalysis of the successive hydrolysis of beta-D-glucose units from the non-reducing ends of 1,3-beta-D-glucans, releasing alpha-glucose. Catalysis of the reaction: 6-phospho-beta-D-glucoside-(1,4)-D-glucose + H2O = D-glucose 6-phosphate + glucose. Catalysis of the hydrolysis of terminal, non-reducing beta-D-glucose residues with release of beta-D-glucose. Catalysis of the hydrolysis of any O-glycosyl bond. null
