Glass — Communauté Photo

For me personally, being far from a platform that is a melting pot of everything(IG) away from photos and groups (Flickr) away from AI based only (500px) is worth the money that I’m paying(no Ads). This platform gives you a sharing photos experience only(no dumb size cropping required to post). Is clear that those who’s working behind LOVE PHOTOGRAPHY.

C’est super de voir une application consacrée à la photo avec le but de rester non invasive et non addictive sur les côtés sombre qui sont venu avec les likes, Instagram, Facebook et compagnie. Par contre travaillant la retouche sur iPad et la version androïde n’existant pas, ça serait tout de même un minimum de supporter nativement l’iPad. Car impossible d’apprécier les photos en grand format autrement. Accessible via le web mais sans pouvoir se connecter. J’espère que cette amélioration va apparaître rapidement.

I like the concept, yearly price would be ok if it lives up to expectations. However, I’m glad that there is a 14 days trial because the app just crashes when I click on create account. I tried to restart the phone, delete and reload the app… nothing helps. Maybe Glass staff has some ideas and could help me here. My specs are iOS 15.1 on Iphone 7, still have 2 Go of available space on my phone.

At first I was very enthusiastic about this concept. I was even weirdly encouraged by the passive-agressive onboarding that requires you to subscribe, sign up for a membership, *and* shoves a notification permission dialog in your face before even showing you a single picture. Surely, I thought, people passing this barrier must be extremely enthusiastic about distraction-free, like-free, pure photography? What a great safe space this must be! Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this app to anyone in the current state. It's just very poorly made. The safe area insets aren't respected on the iPhone, so the top photo in the feed is cut off. The iPad version is non-existant; it's a joke given that you're targeting yourselves towards photo enthusiasts who would probably want to view photos larger than credit card size. Besides, with the most basic standard UI you have, supporting it should be trivial. And no landscape support, even in the viewer? Compare this to flickr, with its large user base, low-toxicity environment (not focused on like counts), tons of features, support for every major platform, and an ad-free subscription option. Or just share Google Photos links or post on Reddit for free. Again, with better platform support etc. I'm rooting for you guys, but you really have to up your game.

C'est payant et c'est une bonne chose : ça permet à l'entreprise de se focaliser sur le produit plutôt que devoir le transformer en outil publicitaire pour se financer. J'enlève une étoile parce qu'il manque quand même un moyen de marquer son appréciation pour une photo sans avoir à commenter.

Can’t use the app since I need to pay. Crazy let people test the app before asking them to engage with you. Bad marketing

C’est payant :/

Beautifully designed app that puts the focus on the work over everything else. My daily dose of photographic inspiration.

Look forward to more learning about Glass.

An amazing place for photographers and help them share photos without ads or distractions like ads. No photo upload limit helps and also no compression on photos. Amazing app 5 stars. ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
