Glitché: Photo & Video Editor Positive Reviews
Great app, but full-access costs $$I was very disappointed to see that once I paid for the app, to unlock full-access, I would have to pay $9 more. It would be helpful if Glitché would make it implicit to their customers that this app will not permit full use of the filters when attempting to take a photo/video, and that this will only be used as an editing tool for photos/pictures in the iPhone photo library. I'm also not sure why I have to pay $2.99 to access "HD export" which, in all honesty, Glitché is charging me to use the full quality of the camera that is built into my phone. I already paid for the app, and an extra $2.99 for camera filter use. Why would the app block/downscale features that are native to my iPhone 7 Plus (such as HD picture/video quality)? It also charges extra to use the filters for videos in the camera roll. I'm a bit upset that I feel like I've been lied to by the app's developers in order for them to make a quick buck..DrPickTayVersion: 2.14
Amazing Glitch EditorI’m one of those people who doesn’t write reviews very often, but I felt I had to write a review for this app. This is some of the most advanced technology I think I’ve seen with any photo/video editing app in a long time. As a person who does deep editing myself, I know how much time it takes to make certain glitch effects come to life, nevertheless actually available as a preset for users to stick on to any photo or video. Such labor-some edits available at the press of a button isn’t something that should be taken for granted here folks...this is truly amazing stuff. Technology at its finest. The price may be a little costly, perhaps to some, but in comparison to the time, learning, and money you would have to spend to purchase the software to do some of this stuff yourself, it’s worth every penny - hands down. Put things into perspective.
To the developer team; yes, it would’ve been nice to know the full price of things up front, but I also understand the psychology of marketing so that’s that. You guys have made an absolutely awesome app here and I look forward to using this for my creative purposes. Amazing work..ACMoses6Version: 2.23
Can’t restore purchasesI’m subscribed to the one month pro subscription. When I try to use pro functions it pops up the most annoying and frustrating pop up I’ve ever experience. “A go to for any modern professional photographer” and I bought it just so I didn’t have to hear that again. I was at 5 stars but until I can get what I’m currently and will be continuing to pay for (cause I’m an idiot and hopeful they will fix this soon) it’s gunna stay that way. If I could give it 0 stars for its current state I would. I love this app and am very displeased. I use it once in a blue moon, and although I’ve been paying for a year now. And maybe used it 20 or so times. I can’t. I haven’t used it in a long time and now I still can’t. Thanks for nothing (as of right now)
Edit: it’s really tiny on the Glitché pro pop up on the bottom right corner. Super tiny. Super super tiny. Maybe I should have looked. Like stated above I’m an idiot..NooseNeckVersion: 2.23
Pretty good but there are some bumpsYou have to pay more than the original .99 cents to use this full of this app along with exporting full quality apparently. Up to $9 I believe which I was not personally thrilled about however I do enjoy all the features. I only have a few complaints. If you wish to add text there is only one font option and I can't seem to resize it or move it around the screen which kind of tilts me. Also with the video filter with the date, I can't move the date to a corner of the screen making it more like a recording anyway, it takes up the whole screen. Other than that I am relatively happy with it, and I hope they continue to update it added more effects and texts and such..GhfxhkjVersion: 2.14
Original but...I discovered this app a while ago but didn't know if it was worth purchasing. After seeing that so many pictures I loved on Instagram were edited with this app, I decided to install it. After paying 0,99$, the app enables many editing features for the pictures in your camera roll but you need to pay extra in order to edit videos. After turning my picture into a little masterpiece, I saved it in my camera roll only to realize the quality downgraded A LOT. I thought it was a bug but saw that you need to pay 2,99$ to save the pictures in high resolution. I'm very disappointed with this app. It had so much potential and it should warn everyone that you need to pay a lot more if you want everything unlocked. I wish I could give it 3 and a half stars because it is still a very cool editing app but the fact that I have to pay extra for the quality of the final pic is simply outrageous..Walk0nthem0onVersion: 2.14
Changed my lifeThis 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..JetstarmaydayVersion: 2.16
I love this photo/video manipulatorThis app, along with Decim8 are my go to photo manipulation apps. The photo and video editing effects are inspiring. I have never used the app for subtle editing so I can't comment on that, but if you are looking for glitchy, bold, creative effects, this is probably the app for you. You do have to pay for some of the features. To me, the images/videos I have been able to create with the app make it well worth the cost. It amazes me the number of people complaining about having to shell out some cash to use all the features. There are plenty of free, inferior apps out there if you don't want to pay. 20 years ago a program that does what this app is capable of would have cost a minimum of $50. Now get off my lawn!!!.BcmuzikVersion: 2.14
CAN I GET SOME HELPI only wrote this 5 stars so somebody might actually see this, I really need help. I was able to edit one video and save it to my camera roll, now I can't even get to the saving option I edit the video fine, press next, press next again and it loads forever, like never finishes I sat there 2 hours it still was loading. Now you may think reset your phone turn it on and off again, so I did...multiple times, cleared it from my multi-tasking folder things it still doesn't seem to get to that save page anymore. I just bought it, and paid 2.99 extra used it all of one time! if this is a bug please, please, please fix it I really just want to use it. Any help or response would be greatly appreciated..This h o eVersion: 2.14
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..Short10bucksVersion: 2.18
Still doesn’t work great 10 years onI’ve been using this app and putting up with some harsh usability issues because the tools it provides are really that useful. After using this app for 10 years I finally decided to pay for the team’s hard work, and good on them for offering a permanent license instead of shafting everyone with a subscription.
But I pay for pro in the middle of a project, and still can’t save in high res. My mistake, let’s restart and make a unique approximation of the project. Oh? A pop up survey to ask if I like the app? Well, I just forked over a lot of money, and I’m kind of in the middle of something. How about never serve me a pop up survey? Never ever ever. My point is it broke the UI and I had to start over a third time. My mistake for paying up..Collin34512Version: 2.43
Review updateSo I still love the app and the improvements to it have been vast. It doesn’t crash anymore, you can easily layer your effects, and basically have loads of fun with it if you wish. Like many others however I find issue with the subscription payment. Even though I find the app useful I don’t use that much to garner the cost of a continuous fee. I’d gladly pay for the extra features if it was a one time payment, but since it’s not I’m just going to act like they don’t even exist. That said the app is still really wonderful even without the extra feature the subscription would provide you and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to experiment and have fun with their images..Kyro YouieVersion: 2.18
Premium Apps Come at Premium PricesThis review would be 5 stars, but a few filters in the app are buggy and don’t produce the preview when rendered to the final image/video you save. The pixel filter is one of them. Scaling a photo or video warps it in a way that doesn’t match the preview. The 3d feature is cool, I wish I could import my own model.
Other than the above, the amount of power packed into this streamlined app is astounding. The premium features are a bit pricey, but given you could use this to create professional-quality videos, I think it’s worth it. If you’re new to it, familiarize yourself with the free features first. It’s pretty easy to use for beginners, but does have a decent learning curve and takes time to master..« Ethan »Version: 2.23
Very happyI got this app because I was bored and I didn’t think it would be good but I end up using it three times a day. The only thing I would change is the in app purchases it was very frustrating getting done with the edits and then realizing I had to pay for it. But I know what your doing, making the app 3 dollars instead of 13 so that people will get it thinking it’s cheap but it’s not. But it’s still a shady thing to do so make your app 13 dollars or tell people who are buying it more openly that you have to pay another 9 dollars.Samuel BuxtonVersion: 2.14
Do yourself a favor and buy this appI dont really get why this app gets so much hate in the reviews other than the overpriced subscription fees. I can honestly say I love this app. I have been using it for over a year and a half and haven’t problem with it other than the occasional bug when I go back to editing after saving a photo, but even then the bugs make the photos look interesting! I do not recommend it to those who are unwilling to or can’t pay for the subscription, but I can confidently say that I have had so much fun experimenting with this app. Thank you Glitché :).Hre01Version: 2.23
Cool features, extremely priceyAlmost every negative review here is in regards to the pricing model. I think the app is cool but I am a little annoyed that it costs money to download and then requires additional money to export your pictures to a decent resolution. I went ahead and paid for a year subscription but I am also very irritated that there doesn’t appear to be a save feature for your settings so you can modify them later. Also the annoying video ad still randomly plays even though I have a Pro membership.
Can’t wait until a free alternative comes out..FhshefjfbVersion: 2.23
Probably a good editor?The effects they have on this app actually look really cool and interesting, and the photo editor works pretty well and i’m decently impressed with it. but I happen to want to use the video editor more than the photo one, and obviously there’s an option for that which would be great if I could figure out how to use it?? the video editor side of this app is unbelievably confusing and you cant really control any of the effects at all. sometimes the filters don’t even work. I was really excited about this since the photo editor part worked great and the filters looked really cool but it’s almost impossible to use when you try to edit a video. which is extremely frustrating..KdjdjdjdjdndnenneVersion: 2.14
I love this appI use this app every single day. I love how I can create awesome content super fast. The extra charges were unexpected but so worth it. I can see how people would be turned off by all of the surprise paywalls, but I don’t mind paying it just because this app is simply fantastic. This is a MUST HAVE for anyone wanting to get into glitch art and don’t have the time to learn how to do all of these effects in photoshop or after effects. My favorite part of using this app is never knowing how the end product will turn out. I always surprise myself with what I create using this app.
Now with all that being said I have a few suggestions to make the app experience better
-more transparency with the extra in app purchases
-landscape orientation
-occasional crashing fix
-when editing video I would like to be able to put one effect on a specific part in the video instead of having to put the effect on the entire video
-masking fx layers to specific areas.@chaddowningVersion: 2.14
Been my favorite appp for more than eight American yearsIt’s the best, you want an app that just messes everything up but you also have infinite control? This is it. Are the tools tuned perfectly?… yes there is nothing you can’t not not do not wrongly well with this trash hot gooey chiippped sludge coming straight out of your weird aunts locked up back room behind the dryer you know the one it’s everything back there but compressed into an app and I think you might love it half as much as I do and that’s a value money can buy! Consider, friend..Wings of the darkVersion: 2.42
Yall really hungry for some money huhLook i love this app. i remember years ago when i first found this app and it was literally like no other. but now it’s like why ask for more when we paid for the app already? i could careless about the weekly, monthly or yearly access for which i’m not gonna buy. WHY is there a glitché logo every time you want to edit a photo and you have to press X everytime you start a new project it’s so annoying. even if you want to go back to get rid of it you can’t because you’ll just have to trash the whole project. there no option to even remove it at all. PLEASE just remove it..Snaaapchaaaat userVersion: 2.31
GratefulI am so glad I purchased this app when it first came out. I use it all the time and have great results. I also use the app in combination with several other apps to create some very original digital art pieces. I’m grateful because I purchased the app before it went to subscription. I am pleased that there are updates from time to time where as with so many other apps there have been few or no updates at all which denigrates the product. Thank you..T McSnortVersion: 2.33
LOVE this app but HATE latest update.I LOVE this app. It’s game changing in what you can do with photos and video. It’s almost PC level software right on your phone. It was well worth the cost and you could lose hours creating gifs and manipulating your library. With that said, the latest update has butchered one of the most pertinent features. Now EVERYTHING has to be gif’d whereas you could previously create short video clips that were looped. AND, I’m assuming it’s a bug, the gif feature doesn’t currently even safe as a gif. It shows how it should appear in your library before you save, but once it’s saved, it doesn’t move. HORRID update. Please fix..MonaLisaSpears94Version: 2.19
Brilliant little camera, smart interfaceI was, of course, impressed with the quality of the different effects, but the way it uses your accelerometer and orientation values to influence the glitch behavior, I have to give credit where credit is due. I know it's nothing terribly new, it was just the delight of experiencing lateral thinking without making a fuss over it. If you're looking for a gimmick camera, you may be disappointed after paying all the in-app, but if you love clever camera apps, it's very much worth it..AlternaiveVersion: 2.14
I DON’T WANT TO HEAR THAT TAKASHI 6x9 SONG EVER AGAINI would love to rate this app 5 stars, but if I have to open the app and listen to that 6x9 song blast through my phone speakers again (even when my phone is on mute), I may just delete the app. It’s been over 2 months, and it’s the most annoying ad I’ve ever encountered. It’s the first thing you hear when you try to make an edit and it’s super loud. I get it - ads help with costs but I only want to hear that song once if I have to hear it at all! Decim8 is silent thank the lord. I suggest that app, or learn photoshop or another, cheap editing app like photofox if you, like me, are getting really really tired..HtgejrskthwVersion: 2.18
Love the app but...I feel the UI could offer more control over filters like “GDNT” where the color are chosen based on where you touch the screen. Other than I love the app it doesn’t really lower the quality of my video post edit and my devices have enough space it runs smoothly even after I’ve layed 2-3 filters onto one video. I admit to unlock it is a bit steep but used correctly and that’s a good investment considering it’s one of the better video apps I’ve come across for the specific need..McwolfickVersion: 2.19
Change of rate ruins trust and overall experienceSo 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!.Galaxy...Version: 2.16
Lots of fun for this playful glitcherI do still images, not video where I gather the developers nickel and dime you to death if I’m understanding others’ complaints. There are, naturally, things I wish this would do but I have really enjoyed the techniques I have figured out for myself. I confess that I often drag an image through three or five different apps to blend the effects, and FTM Image is my other favorite, quite different filters. Like others commenting before me, I absolutely LOATHE the subscription model for software. I like to buy it once and have it. Period..Sasha the book eaterVersion: 2.19
🚨FIX GIF PLAY SPEED PLEASE🚨I very much love this app. i haven't had any problems with the app crashing, so i would say it is very much worth the $.99. i dont notice a quality drop when saving images either. the only thing that bugs me is when i create a GIF with the filter i want and it looks cool, but once i press the ">" to go to save it the GIF's play speed speeds up like crazy and looks quite stupid compared to what i had. Please add the ability to adjust GIF playback speed and it will be a 5 star app for me..RaynughVersion: 2.14

Ever since they implemented memberships I’ve been spammed with that. This app WAS amazing, but a lot of features I paid for were turned into a subscription. Still one of the best apps around but like the rest of the sheep they hopped on the subscription bandwagon. I get it, you have to make cash, but spamming the hell out of me with that video makes me never want to use it again..SqueeJezzaVersion: 2.23
Cool but be awareThe 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..SailormoonbabbbyyyyVersion: 2.14
Getting WorseThis was my favorite app for a long time and I raved about it to friends - I loved playing around with it to make psychedelic art. But updates to the app never made it better, only bulkier and more expensive. I upgraded to the "pro" version years ago when it was like $2... and now the want you to pay $40 lol. Just stop while you're ahead, guys. Stop bogging down this wonderful app with useless add-ons, and stop trying to be a subscription service. Just sell a quirky app for $2!! and let HP try to harass people into enrolling in a doomed auto-pay business model.SocktopiVersion: 2.23
Best glitch editor on the App StoreMost glitch editors aren't nearly as robust as this one and they cost about the same to unlock all the features. This is very clearly a much more put-together app that legitimately does have amateur artists in mind when it comes to features. Yes, it costs a bit to unlock everything, but that's true of even bottom-of-the-barrel editing apps; this one is so far above those that the price is honestly justified..Luxe52Version: 2.14
99 cents in, $60 outBought this app back in 2022 and it had to be one of the best apps for glitch effects. It still is but there’s a major issue with the fact that atleast 80% of this app is paywalled. To ask money for more effects even if I bought the app is kinda ridiculous, and it’s too the point where effects I used 2 years ago are now behind a subscription. Removing these restrictions really would be help since I do believe not many people are subscribed in the first place..David GustmanVersion: 2.43
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!.BAR112Version: 2.16

Glitché: Photo & Video Editor Negative Reviews
Why a one star review for a perfect product?Because it keeps repeatedly spamming me to review it and it is my prerogative not to as I already pay you monthly for the product. It should leave me alone and let me do my work. So since you DEMAND that I review your product that I already subscribe to before I can continue to use it, I will. I purchased this product PERMANENTLY at a set price when it first came out which the company later illegally RENEGED on to charge me a monthly fee in order to use. It is now several hundred dollars to use it permanently, even though I already paid to use it permanently when the price was much cheaper. This, doubled with the fact that your product will not leave me alone until I write a review is why what should be a five star product gets ONE star. How do you like your review guys? Was that algorithm you used to force your users to review worth it? I’ll change it to five if you 1) Stop the product from bothering me to review it and 2) give me access to the permanent working product which I already paid for yet am still charged a monthly fee to have access to. If there is a reply from the company below this before my review has changed to five stars please know that the person answering this post absolutely knows the company is shady and still is just trying to give you lip service with absolutely no intention of fixing the issues, making them a liar, so don’t believe a word they say..ZombificationafyVersion: 2.42
Why are so many developers doing this?They are undermining their success, ruining their reputation by alienating & angering a once loyal & dedicated customer user base. All to make a quick buck. Myself, like many other user-patrons, have long ago paid for premium services or to have ads removed. And then suddenly out rolls the latest update with its Subscription based services and all of those previous payments are negated. Now we have to pay again, and usually considerably more money for many of the features that we already paid for. Is this not fraud? Bait and Switch? False advertising? It wouldn't surprise me to see this eventually unfold into a class action lawsuit. Apple could be complicit as well for allowing it. I could be mistaken as I am not a lawyer, but even if what they are doing is legal, it still seems unethical and bad business.
Come on Developers! Do the right thing! You had a fantastic app here with a base of users who would gladly pay for your next great app. Lose the subscription, give us back the original Glitch and roll out Glitch2. Make it bigger and better. You will have a lot of happy customers instead of ex-customers. I for one will applaud your efforts and gladly pay for another app; even for a Subscription..WEKIVVersion: 2.18
She said HooplaAll the salt about the subscription thing aside, the app has just stopped working for me. It won’t render or export my videos properly. I figure this is to do with the new update and hope the people behind this will at least let us non-subscription plan money having people use some of the features, and FIX this. I mean this app used to be my go to and somehow since making this subscription thing it has just gone down the toilet. Don’t get me wrong, I understand the need to make money off your totally brilliant product but y’all were on one with this subscription plan hoopla and even further on one with the app imploding on top of that. Loyalty is two ways y’all, we can’t be expected to remain in this camp if you’re not keeping us warm. Like dang I can’t even use it without the subscription even though I was one of the early adopters to willingly shell out coin? Man. Saying goodbye to this might hurt but for sure it’ll hurt less than the ~$40 dollars for an apparently poorly functioning product, y’all are asking..MisseazyVersion: 2.19
I would like a request for a refundI have bought this App in the hope of paying another $2.99 for the In-App Purchase to get Hi-Res Export feature. I have a screenshot of App Information page on the App Store recorded January 6th, 2019 which shows that in the “Information In-App Purchases” there is an $2.99 item for “Hi-Res Export”. However, inside the actual application you must pay for Glichè Pro Subscription to have such option and there is no Hi-Res Export option as In-App Purchase.
And now when I checked the application information, officially, they have removed In-App Purchase and selling the Pro version with Subscription plan. This is a trick from the Developer giving wrong information and misleading the customer. I never bought the app if I was aware of the Subscription Plan or if there is not In-App Purchase option, proper information must be given in the Application Information. A lot of customers are having the same issue and they have reported.

Very overrated. Wish I didn't buy.Have seen some neat photos made with this app, so I bought it. I've been quite disappointed so far.
Most features are still locked and need to be bought even AFTER you've paid a dollar for the app. A lot of these features should be included without extra charge, and there shouldn't be another fee just to download HD versions of your photos. What an absolute ripoff.
Secondly, the app crashes so much that it's hardly useable. Only about five photo filters will work without issue, all the others cause the app to crash each and every time.
To sum it up, don't spend your money on this app. The 99cents doesn't include most features that you'd assume wouldn't need to be extra $$. It's developed horribly meaning constant crashes and freezes. I use it on my iPod 5th gen, but it does the same on my friends iPhone 6. Other reviews for even newer devices have these problems too. Badly done app and too costly for what it does.
If you own photoshop on your computer, you can get similar effects by downloading free ACTIONS, which are presets you install that enable you to choose a photo, press a button and boom, glitchy cool effects. Just google Glitch actions photoshop. Plenty out there..EsotericExposalVersion: 2.14
Awful update; app usability reducedI’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..Ajl1218Version: 2.15
Already paid, not paying againThose of us who paid $3 via IAP to unlock all features (when that was the highest-priced IAP at the time) should NOT have to pay again. If I had known the original purchase would be rendered worthless with a subscription plan I (and I'm sure almost everyone else) wouldn't have bought it to begin with. Why and how Apple allows this fraud in the App Store is beyond me, yet it has unfortunately become an ever-growing trend among greedy dev(il)s. At least give us old-time (pre-subscription) customers our money back since the features we paid for have ALL been unethically replaced with a subscription paywall and we now have no more access to the app's features than do those who haven't invested a penny (which is less than this fremium crapp is currently worth). This is unacceptable business..ZotDudot7Version: 2.19
This would have been a five star, but......like so many apps, this one has gone the way of monthly subscriptions with an outlandish price ($65 to purchase it all out? No.). I would have gladly paid a reasonable price for the app with full access to everything - at least $5 but I would have paid up to $10 because I enjoy this app so much. Poor form, Glitché. I’m disappointed.
Edit to add as of February 2024: Now they’ve locked almost everything behind their subscription. I was okay with some things being locked behind Pro but now almost everything is, despite the fact I paid for this app. Uninstalled and will definitely make sure anyone I know who’s considering this app knows that the developers will take away things you already paid for in the past..Katcatkat87654Version: 2.43
Too many hidden chargesThe pay structure on this app really needs to be re-thought. I wanted to try this app out and happily paid the $0.99 initial fee, only to find out that I cannot use the grid and similar RGBD filters on videos without purchasing a reoccurring subscription! In fact, I cannot even demo these filters on video with some caveat like a watermark or no save function. The end result is that I didn’t purchase the upgrade. This app seems to have some very cool effects but the utility is just not worth paying what I do monthly to access a real productivity app (e.g., Adobe Photoshop), especially when I cannot even preview how well the filters work. As an iOS app developer, I fully sympathize with maximizing revenue but this scheme just turns people like me away..ChaunceyGibbonsVersion: 2.18
The celebrity promotion has gotten to their heads and now it costs even morePart 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..CheesecakedinneVersion: 2.16
The EA/T2 love child of expensive for no reasonIf 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..Brivn gvbrielVersion: 2.16
It loses value every updateI didnt mind paying for the app because I assumed I’d be able to access cool features in the app, and I did, back in 2019, and it was worth it. When they introduced subscriptions I firmed the 6.99 and when that was too pricey I knew since the app already cost something I’d still access most of what I needed. Now however, the subscription is ridiculously priced for somethings that has only added 2 new effects since 2019 and locked off the effects I was already used to using behind a paywall now even giving an unmovable watermark for videos😀 and you have to remove them from images despite that already being what you’ve paid for. Not worth the money anymore, save your coins or just get the other free apps.Naa AdweleVersion: 2.42
What were they thinking?This used to be a good app. But they didn’t realize that a celebrity using your app is not an excuse for paying $20 for full access.
Not only that, but they stripped Hi-Res Export from people that PAID for it. You can probably see that their review score has been dropping.
There is no way that any sane person would pay $20 for an app that...
1: It’s an app. If this was ported to a desktop environment with a decent UI, maybe people would buy it. Not to mention that this app has been worsening every update, which leaves people no choice but to “upgrade”.
2. This app already costs a dollar. Many people don’t purchase apps in the first place. What makes you think that they’ll purchase MORE of your app? I can understand 1-3 dollars, but definitely not $20.
3. Subscription model. I don’t even know where to start with this. Most people just forget about subscription models anyways. Additionally, it gives an excuse to mark up the price of the full version.
I’ve given up on writing this review. If there’s one thing you should take away from this rage-fueled rant I wrote at 1 in the morning, it’s that you should stay away from this app..I don't think so..Version: 2.19
WHASTE OF MONEYYou only get like 2 features and have to buy a subscription if you want to use any features at all AFTER YOU ALREADY JUST PAYED THEM. DONT BUY THIS IS JUST A CASH GRAB. even for like the most basic features such as a vhs effect or something related you have to pay them a subscription. do not buy this is the most stupidest app and they try to make it all cool like this has crazy features and look at all the cool things you can do with this but all they really want is your money. If you want to just edit a clip for a atheistic video your going to end up having to not only buy the app but also pay for a subscription too (you mine as well just make the app free because the features you get for the app without a subscription is NOTHING) This app is trash don’t buy 👎..Gavin SigVersion: 2.23
What did I buy?The app does have cool features, probably some of the best I've seen come from a glitch app BUT I was under the impression that by buying the app, I was...well...buying the app. As it turns out I'm just buying some filters to put on photos, but if I want to film or shoot photos from the app and use the really cool effects, then I have to pay $20 just to have it for a year. I'm not here to argue that this price is unreasonable, I'm simply saying that if you are going to put a price on the lite version of the app, you should put the word 'lite' in the title or something because you're fooling a lot of people into buying something they didn't expect. For this reason I give two stars until they change this..BradaraptrrrVersion: 2.18
Fallen titanI’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..Mnemosyne99Version: 2.16
Great app, but too expensiveI find it completely ridiculous that once I pay for the app, I have to pay additionally for almost every single feature. There is only one available feature in this app that doesn’t require purchasing. The people who rated this app with 5 stars obviously just have too much money to spend. I would appreciate it so much more if all the features were free, since I already paid for the app. It’s unfair restrict almost every feature in the app when the user has already purchased it. Otherwise, the app definitely does what it says it does and I think it’s very intuitive and cool.Jrandall2001Version: 2.14
SneakyThis app tries to trick you into a subscription. When attempting to cancel it again attempts to initiate a subscription. Very sneaky UI placement..R0bwVersion: 2.18

Pay more for an app I already paid for.I don't approve implementing new features way after the fact and then charging exorbitant amounts for access to them.
I bought the pro version years ago and now they decide to smack a $90 price tag on new features making the money I already spent obsolete?
Do yourself a favour don’t waste money on this garbage..BothetedVersion: 2.16
ScamThis is probably the worst app I've ever spent 99 cents on, it's a complete ploy because the full app really costs 60-some dollars to own. You're able to look through the filters but every 5 seconds you have an ad for the full version popping up reminding you that Kylie Jenner recommended it once (totally an unpaid recommendation I'm sure) anyways, it's terrible, please don't waste your money..Paddy ThibauVersion: 2.18
Waste of moneyTo be clear: to fully activate this app’s features they expect you to pay about $55 (or a monthly fee). What you buy initially is a crippled version that won’t let you save full-size photos or do anything with videos.
I played around with it for 10 min then deleted it. Junk.
What’s most disappointing is that this was recommended by the App Store as a “best of 2018” app..A Cat Called SneezeVersion: 2.18

Thanks to the users pointing out Glitché now scrapes the contents of your clipboard. And to think people scoff at Russian hackers getting all up in your business.]
Glitché? More like “Glitchy”. I’ve had great fun with this app in the past, when it wasn’t freezing up on me. But now the “Pro” upgrade I paid for is replaced by monthly fees or a “Lifetime” “upgrade” at $89.99? How about just give us back the features we paid for already? What kind of twakked-out business model is developer going for? They just left a flaming bag of dog poop on users’ doorsteps.

Potentially MaliciousTLDR: Pasting from clipboard after actions that shouldn’t result in that.
Have had this app for a few years. Over my last few uses, specifically after updating to the most recent iOS version, I've begun to notice that certain actions, that have no business doing so, are telling me that Glitché has pasted something from my clipboard — meaning it’s potentially stealing your clipboard data. Thankfully, any time I’ve noticed this it’s been nothing of importance. Miscellaneous website links. However, this activity has been happening for at least 10 months at the time of this review — thats when the last update was released.
Observed most when pressing the “+” button to add a 2nd effect on a photo.
Between this, and the tricky UI and subscription, I can’t recommend this app for fear of other malicious activity that may still be undiscovered..IlysalemVersion: 2.23

update: i decided to try and make the most of what i paid for and try out the photo editing but it won’t sync my camera roll properly (i had to dig through folders to find the most recent picture i had taken bc it wasnt under ‘everything’) and after playing around with some mediocre-at-best filters i came to discover that it doesn’t let you save your pictures so essentially i just paid for an app that does nothing. do yourself a favour and don’t waste your money like i did..GuacamoleoleVersion: 2.23
Loved this app, but it’s driving away loyal customersI upgraded to full one time purchase pro. That included video etc all in one price, not subscription. Subscription will be the death of apps, ordinary people can’t afford tons of subscriptions.
UPDATE 2020 It won’t let me connect to FILES on iPhone 7 to upload max PNGs it says it does it directly in settings but it doesn’t- this app was great but between the sketchy subscription issues and constant bugs it’s so frustrating and it’s been important to my work. The resolution labels are mixed up if your original resolution was low. I think it used to out put larger files from smaller ones. If the original is large you seem to be able to export “max” renders, but only IF the original is large enough. It does seem that you can restore your purchases on a tiny tiny little clicker in the apps internal add.
I still find the app useful, but annoying with so many problems..ZeekerspikeVersion: 2.23
