Glint Media Studio
Read full descriptionHide full description
Glint is a private media studio for people who want more control over their photos and videos without giving up a polished, modern experience. Import from Apple Photos, camera, Files, or local Wi-Fi, or capture directly with Glint’s built-in camera to keep everything inside your Glint library from the start. Your media stays in Glint unless you choose to export or save it back to Apple Photos, giving you a cleaner way to separate personal, private, or curated content from the rest of your camera roll. Where many media vaults and gallery apps feel dated, cluttered, or purely functional, Glint is designed to feel current. The interface is visual, responsive, and intentional, with a full-screen media viewer, refined video playback controls, gallery covers, custom organization tools, and a home experience you can personalize with Vibe Lab. It gives private media the kind of design attention usually reserved for creative apps, not storage utilities. Glint also goes beyond simple hiding and sorting. Build custom widget presets with crops, borders, overlays, and time styles. Move media in wirelessly from a nearby browser over local Wi-Fi. Create locked galleries, organize collections with tags, review media details, edit video presentation, and keep your favorite shots close. It is made for people who care about privacy, presentation, and having a library that feels like theirs. Glint Monthly unlocks the full experience, including private galleries, custom widgets, Vibe Lab, wireless upload, and premium organization tools. Whether you are keeping personal media separate, building polished collections, or just tired of apps that look and feel stuck in another era, Glint gives you a cleaner, more thoughtful way to manage the media that matters. Subscription Terms: Glint Monthly is an auto-renewable monthly subscription. Payment will be charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription automatically renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings.
