You spend so much time staring at your computer... doesn't your computer deserve a chance to glance back at you?

• (2023-10-22) Hope: I've been using this extension for so long now but I'm trying to change the browser I use to opera gx, and it would be awesome if this extension could be optimized for it. Opera lets you download and use chrome extensions but it doesn't seem to activate right like with chrome. Regardless I've loved using it all this time!
• (2023-09-25) audrey: I love and admire your work, Maya! Been enjoying glance back for about 2 years now and it would be awesome if users can edit their minimal mode (at the very least, change the solid colour of the new tab)
• (2023-07-20) Martina Alvarez: me encantaba :((( sin querer la desinstalé y se me borraron todas mis fotos guardadas 😪. estaría bueno que haya una base de datos o algo que mismo con tu mail, pueda guardar una copia de seguridad!!
• (2023-01-10) Selva Romane: I just downloaded it and its seems nice but now when i open a new tab I can't acces my favourites and shortcuts, is there anything i can do?
• (2022-12-19) Meerab Shah: Love the extension! was wondering if there could be an option to mirror the camera that would be AMAZING
• (2022-07-30) klein cafa: Love the extension, where it was quite funny to see my pictures where it took of me at a random time! However, I have signed out of my chrome, and signed back in where all the photos have been removed! If there was a cloud feature to your Google account, it would be great! A suggestion I would have is having the extension take a picture at random times instead of the same time each day! It was quite fun at first, but now I know when the extension would take the picture each day!
• (2022-04-28) manuel: i love the idea, but could u add a mode like "non-intrusive mode" to have your tab as you had it but by clicking on the extension u can see your photos? i really like ur extension a lot <3
• (2022-04-20) Sydney Szepfalusy: I have never written a review before, well that is until now. This extension has truly made me so much happier. It captures me at my best and it captures me at my worse. It brings out how human I am and I love watching it pop up day by day. Highly recommend, this is my favorite extension ever.
• (2022-03-20) Razan Mohamed: I really love this extension but it hasn't been working recently for me ("There was an error with accessing the camera stream: NotReadableError"). The suggestions in the FAQ haven't fixed it unfortunately. Does anyone know if I uninstall and reinstall the extension I'll lose my photos so far?
• (2022-02-03) Emma R.: This extension is great! Unfortunately, I accidentally disabled camera access one time, and I can't figure out how to re-allow it. Now I can't use the extension anymore :( I've tried disabling and even deleting the extension but that didn't work. Would appreciate some help with this!
• (2022-01-13) Andrew Tsai: Really like this idea and am stoked to use it... but I'm a bit confused on how it works? Should it be taking over the 'new tab' screen EVERY single time I open a new tab? Can I disable that if I prefer a different new tab screen or will that stop it from taking photos? (I've also never had it take a photo yet)
• (2022-01-09) Samantha: I love this concept so much!
• (2022-01-07) Emily: this is a really cool idea and I love it!! I also appreciate how the developer has read the reviews people write here and are correcting them as feedback comes in. It's really cool to see that now there's a minimal mode and that the picture gets taken at a random time now (or so I've experienced as of today). Now that I've accumulated a couple weeks worth of photos it's a fun and collective photo diary and I recommend to lots of people I know.
• (2022-01-04) Mireya Martinez: I really liked it but for the past week it just hasn't taken any photos. I even tried opening multiple tabs to see if it would randomly do it but nothing happened. I also installed and uninstalled and that did not work either :( I really wanted to use this but it did not work for me.
• (2022-01-04) Lauren McLeod: I like this extension however I think I might have to stop using it because I am not able to open a new tab without it popping up again and again. Does anyone know how to fix this? Or is just apart of the app?
• (2021-12-30) marlene chavez corona: i think this is such a cool idea, i really like the idea of keeping a photo diary right on my laptop. i think it'd be cool to be able to toggle the photo diary as the landing page on/off. i miss having my original tabs and it unnerves me slightly to see many versions of myself staring back at me every time i open a tab. the fade option is cool, but it just makes the tab feel empty. it would also be nice to not have it take a picture after the first new tab of the day...i feel like im almost expecting it to happen!
• (2021-01-15) Megan Freeman: I love this extension, it takes the most unflattering pictures and now it's turned into the most cohesive diary I've ever kept.
• (2021-01-03) Ethan MA: cool concept
• (2020-10-12) Halsey Hulse: Really appreciated the review from Salvatore. I thought it was succinct and informative.
• (2020-04-16) Chris Lau: Love this idea! It's really made me think about how I share so much time with my laptop.
• (2019-11-11) I make a lot of funny expressions when I'm thinking, it turns out.
• (2019-05-10) Ben Choe: amazing! wonderful! love!
• (2019-01-15) Alex Krentsel: Really cool extension. I like that it makes me stop and think for a second about what I'm doing and why. Sometimes you start working on something and just disappear into your computer for a few hours, before emerging back into the world. This extension pulls you out of that!
• (2019-01-07) Salvatore Daddario: What a cool idea! I just started using it, but I really like it and it's an interesting way to document life - to document the moments in between.
