Not on a Mac? Use the web version

Got questions? We've got answers.

Will people see Glance when I share my screen?

Glance asks macOS to leave its window out of screen sharing. Apps that respect that setting don't show it. Not every app does, so do a quick test before an important call.

Which apps does it work with?

Any of them. Glance sits at the top of your screen on its own, so it works the same with Zoom, Meet, Teams, FaceTime or OBS.

How does voice tracking work?

The Mac app uses the speech recognizer built into macOS, running on your Mac only, and matches what you say to your script word by word. The web version uses your browser's speech recognition instead.

My Mac doesn't have a notch. Does it still work?

Yes. On Macs without a notch, and on external displays, Glance appears at the top center of the screen.

Does Glance need the internet?

The Mac app doesn't. It has no network access at all, and your scripts, voice and settings stay on your Mac.

Is there a web version?

Yes. Glance for the web runs full screen in your browser and follows your voice too, with nothing to install. It uses the browser's speech recognition, which in some browsers (like Chrome or Safari) may send audio to Google or Apple to turn it into text. For fully on-device recognition, use the Mac app.

Is it really free?

Yes. No price, no subscription, no ads and no sign-up.
