Your RAW Files Never Leave Your Device

No account, no adverts, no watermark. Read every line of the code on GitHub.
View the SourceQuestions About RAW Files
Why does the browser show a smaller version of some RAW files?
Browsers have no RAW developer, so Glance shows the full-size preview the camera saved inside the file. The Windows app uses the RAW codec Windows provides, when it is installed.
Is Glance's RAW viewer free?
Yes. Glance is free and open source under the Apache 2.0 licence, with no account, adverts or watermarks.
Are my RAW files uploaded anywhere?
No. Glance opens files on your own device, in your browser or in the Windows app. Nothing is sent to a server, so it is safe for private documents.
Does it work offline?
Yes. Install Glance from your browser (Add to Home Screen on a phone) and it opens files with no internet connection.
Can I open RAW files on iPhone, Android or Mac?
Yes. The browser version works in Safari, Chrome, Edge and Firefox on phones, tablets and computers. The Windows app adds Explorer thumbnails and opening files with a double-click.
