What's New in Glass

5.4.2

July 28, 2026

In Glass 5.4.2, we've polished several parts of the app for a smoother, more consistent experience. Photo uploading is faster and preserves more metadata. The comment box now expands as you type, while our Series interface and many Settings screens have been refreshed to be clearer and easier to use. We've also resolved a handful of navigation and layout issues throughout the app.

One critique

I’m learning and enjoying so much from others’ photo perspectives. And I do really appreciate that Glass is not intended as a mass storage space as it refines the choices of what is posted. I just wonder though if others too would like it if it was possible to upload even just two photos at a time without having to make it a series .. rather than the current limit of one.

Fantastic Photographic Community!

If you care about photography Glass is an incredible place to share your photos. It’s ad and algorithm free. Just photos displayed beautifully and supportive, positive dialog with other photographers. No “look at me and how great my life is” posts/reels/etc.

Very cool place for all who like photography to share photo and inspira photos

I enjoy posting photos again

This app has single handedly made me enjoy posting and also taking photos again. Ever since the other app (you know which) has almost fully moved to reels and Ai slop and an algorithm that just wants you to watch more apps this apps approach with a subscription model and so many talented artists are such a joy to use. And one of the most important things for me is that the image quality is actually retained and not crushed down to a horrible pixel mess!!

Outstanding!

Three months on Flickr had me searching for something better, and I found that here in Glass. It’s designed to be intentional, with great photo sharing and community. None of the social media rat race. I personally value quality over quantity and found that with Glass. I’m happy to pay to be in a better “neighborhood”. I’m just finishing up my 7-day free trial and happy to say that I received some tips emails during that time, asked some questions to which Stefan quickly replied and received a reminder that my trial was about to expire in case I wanted to cancel before getting charged. That’s a class act and I’m staying. Thanks!
