  • I want to give this app 5 stars...

    This app is awesome The effects are unlike anything I’ve ever seen in any other app. I’ve been able to achieve some crazy visuals in less than 10 minutes. I use it a ton and it’s definitely worth the subscription in my opinion.

    The only problem I have is that this app still has so much potential to be even better. For one, the way you control the effects doesn’t seem like it had a ton of thought put into it, since it’s mostly just sliders that are too small to get things looking the way you want. I think that precision editing could be vastly improved especially on small screens like phones with just a little more thought into the design.

    Some of the other controls are unintuitive as well, especially with the Sphere effect. In general it’s really hard to control things precisely the way you want.

    If the Glitché team redesigned the app to make it easier to use, I would give this app five stars in a heartbeat. I really hope the developers see this because this app has so much potential to be perfect. Also, PLEASE make a macOS version. I would pay big bucks for that.

  • Used to be great, sold out big time!!

    I had downloaded this app a couple of years ago and at one point even paid for some features. I don’t remember exactly what price etc but all was well and good for a while. I stopped using the app for a while as my arts output decreased and when I went back SO MUCH HAD CHANGED and not at all for the better...now it’s a blown out shell of its former self, demanding over $60 for full access? C’mon, I already bought the app a year or so back! I’m glad the apps following built and gained traction but to capitalize on that is really indicative of the publisher/developers intentions. I’d much rather get a work in progress digital manipulation app from a dev that genuinely enjoys digital art, not a money hungry trend-monger. While I’m not even very surprised I am substantially let down.

  • Works well, but too greedy!

    Paid the $65 one-time fee about a year ago; all features seem to be available to me. UI is very hard to use on a big iPad: get a full screen in landscape but controls are sideways on right side and very tiny. As I recall, developers made it landscape, then reverted to (terrible) portrait only! Only way to save is to hit the big button at the bottom, get “save before exit”? Then, it either crashes out or goes into Glitch mode. Kind of buggy, needs another update. And I don’t care what celebrities use your app!

  • The EA/T2 love child of expensive for no reason

    If battlefront 2 and gta 5 got together and had a baby this is what it would be. The fact that there is a subscription feature is blatant greediness, for people who can’t afford a $65 app they must pay to rent which in turn costs even more in the long run. It’s a your way or the highway type deal and tbh it’s a great app but it’s not close to being worth $65 plus all the other in-explicitly locked features I’ve read about. Seems like the price was ONLY hiked up bc a couple big time celebrities used this app so you think $65 won’t matter to a millionaire well I’m sure even if they spend $200 on lobster they’ll still find a $65 app ridiculous. They’re the 1% and we’re the 99% so start being smart with your business practices and play fair before you go broke.

  • Change of rate ruins trust and overall experience

    So awhile ago when I first purchased this app (when it was on sale for 99¢ ) I loved it. I didn’t have access to the video editing stuff but that was ok because I liked it for post production photo editing. But recently they changed their rates and now I don’t even get what I originally paid for! They have severely limited the effects that I could once use and put them behind a pay wall. Very disappointing. I would be okay if for example they added new effects that were behind a pay wall but not ones I previously had access to!

  • Fallen titan

    I’ve been using Glitché for a few years now. It has amazing features and I use it regularly. But unfortunately it has completely fallen from glory.

    It started with the new payment plans. This was already a fairly expensive app. But the new pro prices are absolutely inexcusable and ridiculous. Listen—it doesn’t matter what famous people bought your app. You can’t completely spit on the fans that made your app what it is in the beginning without expecting some kind of backlash.

    Secondly, the app currently doesn’t work. Period. I haven’t been able to save a picture or video for the past several days. Often I can’t even add more effects. Basically none of the features work at all. The app gets one star from me until that’s fixed. If it is, I’ll give it 2/5, but honestly, it doesn’t deserve anything until it fixes its slimy price changes.

    I realize my poor review doesn’t threaten them much. But if you are a glitché fan, I encourage you to leave a bad review of your own. Behavior like this is shameful, and I would like to see some developers actually walking back their mistakes for once.

  • Changed my life

    This app has many flaws, but the creativity it allows is mind-opening. First you must get passed the learning curve and the design issues with features like GIF creator. This app allows you to turn any image or video into a virtual glitch-filled wonderland. I look forward to taking pictures and editing them with this software. It’s changed my perspective on seemingly daunting effects. I find myself looking for artwork with glitches. Recently I’ve been using this app just as a creative outlet or to get a rough idea of how I’d like to edit an image in photoshop. My biggest issue is the reduced quality of images when exported. I can input a vector image with 300 ppi at HD resolution, yet when I export the image it is pixelated. This loss of quality limits the usage of this app.

  • The celebrity promotion has gotten to their heads and now it costs even more

    Part of why I loved Glitché is because it rejected the over-complication and cost of post-production suites. I think their rise to prominence has led them to reject the amazing accessibility their app had in order to more appeal to the celebrity audience they were trying to capture. I’m still going to use it. However $6-$9 is an expensive price for an app. Most people wouldn’t pay more than $2 upfront. $40 is simply ridiculous. The only thing that would make $40 reasonable would be a professional-grade desktop component to go along with the app. And as a 2 year customer I feel like that isn’t the direction this company/app should head in unless they’re willing to completely rebrand themselves.

  • Awful update; app usability reduced

    I’ve loved the app for years, and I’m completely baffled by the update. The UX/interface changes are horrible. The app's previous design felt perfect for the glitching aesthetic; the new design is indistinct and boring. It’s also less functional. Square photos previously took up all the screen, but now they are only a fraction of the screen. Please at least give an option to use the old interface. I can’t use the app as is on my iPhone 7.

    I understand the economics of a subscription but I’m baffled for the lack of a discount for anyone who currently purchased in app options. Or any alternative options to buy new features. I'd happily pay $3 bucks twice a year for a new feature set. But that much a month or $20/yr or $34 forever seems a little absurd for someone like me who has spend $12-15 on this app previously.

  • Cool but be aware

    The concept of this app is really cool but to pay $10+ for it when it barley works 3/4 of the time is really frustrating. There’s a lot of kinks that need to be work out in the app like the screen going black after editing a video, not being able to go back from filters you picked and having to start all over if you don’t like the effect you picked and the once you’ve spent all of this time editing it the app will shut down out of no where. Just a little FYI I wouldn’t pay for the features that the app provides until they figure out the problems.
