Glint

Real-time creative video & photo effects.

Elevator Pitch

Glint turns your camera into a creative playground — 20 real-time effects that transform you or your background live on screen, at up to 60 frames per second. No cloud, no AI generation, no waiting.

Key Features

  • Effects that know where you are

    On-device person detection separates you from your background. Apply effects to just you, or just the world.

  • 20 live effects

    Overlays, distortions, colour shifts, and adjustments — from pixel mosaics to hand-drawn ink illustrations.

  • Green screen, everywhere

    Stand in front of any photo from your camera roll, or any solid colour. Transform existing photos with the same effects.

  • Real effects, not AI

    Every effect runs live on device. What you see on screen is what you get — instantly, and without ever leaving your phone.

  • Capture and share

    Record video or take photos, then share anywhere.

  • Privacy-first

    Photos and video stay on-device. No uploads, no cloud processing — only anonymous diagnostics.

History

Glint started life in October 2021 as "Veil" — an indie iOS app that applied effects live to the viewfinder rather than after capture, which set it apart from post-capture editors like VSCO, Dazz, or Prequel. In 2025 the app joined the Pixelfolio portfolio. Version 3.0 (March 2026) is the Glint rebrand — a clean repositioning from utility framing toward a creative real-time effects camera: neon, silhouette, bokeh, and moody overlays rendered live in the viewfinder. The release also brought a full Liquid Glass redesign and a refined user experience throughout. What you see is what you record.

About Pixelfolio Inc.

Pixelfolio is a one-person iOS studio run by Dominic Williams, who grew up in Wales and now lives in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The company builds and stewards a portfolio of well-crafted, delightful apps for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac, and Vision Pro — some acquired from their original developers and given a second life, others built from scratch.

The common thread is a design philosophy built on craftsmanship — sweating every detail of the user experience and putting the customer ahead of everything else. A small studio can care about the things larger teams have to skip, and that care is the product.
