Editors’ Notes
Elevate your photos with full-screen layouts and minimal compression. An absence of likes and follower counts allows pure sharing of your favourite shots with an engaged community of amateur and professional shutterbugs.
Glass is a touch of class
I had been really excited for Glass to launch having followed its progress for the past year on social media. And the launch didn’t disappoint.
Glass has proven to be a warm, friendly community full of engagement and absolutely packed with inspiration. So inspired have I been by viewing some of the work from others that I have just purchased my first digital camera in many years. I’m enjoying it as a hobby once again, especially now that there’s a place to share my photos with like minded amateurs and professionals alike. The app is beautifully and thoughtfully designed.
Thank you, Glass, for making me fall in love with photography all over again 📷

Thanks for such a thoughtful review! We really appreciate it.
Brave New World
Glass is a beautifully designed app and a refreshing alternative to Instagram et al. I love that Glass is focused on photography not followers.
I feel that there should have been a slightly more complete feature set at launch, especially around discovery. But having said that I love that Glass have an open and transparent approach to their roadmap and feedback.
I’m surprised to see reviews complaining about the price. Glass couldn’t be more upfront and clear that this is a paid app. If you want free Instagram is over there. But remember if you aren’t paying for the product you are the product.
