See yourself in a whole new light. 20 real-time effects that transform you or your background - instantly. No AI generation. No waiting. Just point, record, and share.
Turn your camera into a creative playground. Glint gives you 5 free real-time effects that transform people or backgrounds - live on screen, before you even hit record. No editing. No waiting. Just open the app and watch the magic happen.
EFFECTS THAT KNOW WHERE YOU ARE
Glint uses advanced person detection to separate you from your background in real time. Apply effects to just yourself, or just the world around you. Switch between modes with a single tap.
20 CREATIVE EFFECTS
Overlays -- Static, Graph, Check, Matrix, and Cosmic wrap you (or your background) in eye-catching patterns and textures.
Distortions -- Blur softens everything beautifully. Pixel creates a bold mosaic. Hexagon adds honeycomb geometry. Wild shatters the image into crystal facets.
Color Shifts -- Bright blows out the exposure. Spooky inverts all colors for a negative-film look. Sepia and Noir bring vintage warmth and classic black-and-white. Moody and Cute add retro film tones. Rosy washes everything in pink. Comic turns the world into a hand-drawn ink illustration.
Adjustments -- Saturate makes colors pop. Contrast punches up detail. Dull gives you that soft, faded film aesthetic.
YOUR BACKGROUND, YOUR RULES
Go beyond filters. Use Image Green Screen to place yourself in front of any photo from your camera roll. Use Tint Green Screen to stand against any solid color. Transform Image lets you apply any Glint effect to photos you have already taken.
REAL EFFECTS, NOT AI GENERATION
Every effect runs live on your device at up to 60 frames per second. There is no cloud processing, no upload queue, no "generating your image" spinner. What you see on screen is what you get -- instantly. Your photos and videos never leave your phone.
RECORD, CAPTURE, SHARE
Record video with effects applied in real time. Capture single photos mid-session and share them directly to TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, or anywhere else. Auto-save keeps recordings in your photo library so you never lose a moment.
MADE FOR CONTENT CREATORS
TikTok creators, this one's for you. No waiting for effects to render. No jumping between apps. Record videos with real-time effects that make your content stand out instantly. The person segmentation means you stay crisp while your background transforms—perfect for green screen-style effects without the green screen.
MAKE IT YOURS
Choose from 6 custom app icons. Toggle audio recording, and front or rear camera defaults. Open the settings sheet halfway to preview effects on the live camera while you browse.

TL;DR: a speedy, simple app that mostly Just WorksI am pleased with the 3.0 update! The new paywall is implemented sensibly and is a reasonable price. If you’re trying to replace your background super easily, or obscure yourself from a video, I recommend this app.There are a few changes I’d enjoy seeing, like:- allowing you to see the result when you tap different effects instead of needing to dismiss the whole effects drawer (since it sits in front of the video)- add back the Zoom Motion effect, if you can fix the bug that it used to have in background mode- support for pinch to zoom- make certain effects extend beyond the very edges of the subject, such as making the Pixel effect only display whole pixels rather than cutting them off at the border (maybe this is impossible to achieve, but it would be cool)

Hi, I’m the new owner of the app. I’ve just released a new version with a redesigned interface for Liquid Glass, and all previous purchasers have all of the filters unlocked. I hope you’ll give it another try — I’d love to hear what you think!
Really neat!
Dvs dan
I have not seen another app do this trick. I especially like how well the sepia filter works. Good job!
Developer Response
I'm glad to hear that. Thank you for the kind words!
Bad faith update!!

The update REMOVED previous options. Not only not cool, but a bad business model! It would have been smarter to let us early adopters keep features and leave good reviews. Instead, dev punked us, and now he gets bad reviews, bad vibes and early users who will never pay an “upgrade” after options were yanked.

I see what you did there

You're just going to pretend that I did not receive all of the filters during your promotion? I cannot access them anymore. Just the static. Just one filter. I see what you did there.
