Trust routine commands once. Glance handles them from there, while sensitive actions still wait for you.

From Glance users

Glance, in their everyday work.

Creators, developers, and product teams describe the moments when Glance becomes useful, then quietly steps away.

Having Spotify directly in Glance’s notch is a joy. The controls unfold smoothly on hover, and I never have to leave my editing software.

5/5
When an agent gets stuck, I do not need to open another chat window. The notch expands, shows the question, I answer from the bubble, and the agent gets back to work.

Auto-approve is fantastic, but its safety net matters even more. For a sensitive command, the notch turns orange and waits for my manual approval.

5/5
The care given to the light animations is remarkable. With the Volumetric theme, the light genuinely feels like it has depth coming out of the display.

5/5
My important notifications are gathered around one area. They slide from the notch and disappear gently, making the screen feel far less aggressive.

Jonathan

Data Analyst

Discord

5/5
When my agent needs clarification, the reply field is already inside the notification. It keeps the pace moving without forcing a context switch.

Samir

System Administrator

Reddit

5/5
I want agents to be autonomous, but not to delete files without my agreement. Glance stops auto-approve for critical commands and lets me approve or cancel.

Chloé

5/5
I use Glance’s Pixel theme for my setup. Seeing the notch animate with small retro blocks while my agents moderate chat is a detail I love.

Managing music and seeing system notifications appear subtly around the notch helps me stay focused without losing touch with what matters.

Laura

Finance Manager

5/5
The agent prepares invoices with auto-approve. At sending or payment, everything pauses and the notch waits for my go-ahead. That is exactly the human control I need.

Antoine

5/5
At the office, Classic stays thin and discreet. For focused work I switch to Halo, a soft light that tells me everything is running without pulling my attention away.

Myriam

Creative Director

Instagram

5/5
The Halo theme gives the notch an almost organic quality. Glance is not only useful, it is genuinely pleasant to have on screen every day.
