Changes are coming soon and may take time to appear.
As you know, your Glowforge comes with a lifetime free subscription to Glowforge Print, the app that makes everything possible. Well, we’ve made some dramatic improvements under the hood to improve your Glowforge Print experience! When editing your design, you should see a smoother and more responsive experience (up to 2 times faster in responding to your key/touch/mouse), especially if your design contains lots of parts.
Try it out to create incredible 2D sticker-like artwork like this cute birthday cake.
Have an amazing idea, but not entirely sure how to make it come to life? When you use Magic Canvas, exclusive to Glowforge Premium, you can translate that idea in your mind into something incredible.
Sharp, high-contrast images are perfect for spectacular engravings and Premium members can now make these adjustments to your artwork - directly in the Glowforge app.
When you click on any bitmap image in your app workspace, whether you traced it, uploaded it, or created it with Magic Canvas, you’ll see the new Adjust Artwork tool.
Monthly featured designs are free for Premium members and, if you get them during their featured month, you get to keep them forever. You can now add them to your dashboard with one-click, without the need to checkout from The Catalog!
Do you use a Google email address to log into your Glowforge account (in other words, your email is @gmail.com or one that is managed by Google)? If so, you can use the “Sign in with Google” button to skip the password.
When Glowforge owners print a Catalog design, they’re now sharing their experience and feedback for you. That means when you are searching for the next amazing designs to print, you can now see their feedback, including how they liked it and ways they personalized it!
Introducing catalog reviews: when you print a new Glowforge Catalog design for the first time, you now have a chance to share your rating. That will help other Glowforge owners choose designs, and let the design creator know what you think of their work! You’ll receive a quick survey, and in just a few clicks, you can let folks know how it went for you.
When you log into app.glowforge.com, you’ll see an updated homepage to help you make the most of your Glowforge. From here, you can easily access your most recent designs, discover new and popular Catalog designs, tutorials, and more.
Perhaps our most often requested feature! Smart Folders help you organize everything you can print.
You can organize your projects however you want, even adding the same design to more than one smart folder. (For example, you may create an ornament and add it to the “Celebration & Events” smart folder, but also put it in the “Print before December” smart folder to make sure you don’t forget it!)
We’re trying something new! As a way to understand how we’re doing with all of our customers, we’re going to occasionally present this one-question survey at the start of your printing day. It’s a big deal if you get it - less than 1% of our customers get this chance to provide feedback! We’d consider it a big favor if you’d share your opinion.
We’ve made it easier for you to manage and print Catalog designs with multiple parts such as this Fantasy Airship, Keepsake Jewelry Box with Slide-out Drawers, or the Mid-century Modern Rambler Organizer. We heard lots of feedback that it was hard to find multiple parts of catalog designs, and this should make it a snap.
Thanks to talented creators like yourselves, the Glowforge Catalog now features thousands of designs. With new, updated categories for all these designs, it’s now easier than ever to find the perfect design for your next print.
Thanks to your feedback, we found and fixed a bug that was causing some designs to show up blank.
We are implementing a security feature to protect your account. If someone is attempting to access your account by repeatedly guessing passwords, we will temporarily lock your account to keep it safe.
Find a problem with a catalog design? We’ve updated the form to report it so we can fix it more quickly! Just find the design in the catalog and click “report this design”.
We have an update to the firmware that will be automatically applied the next time you turn on your printer. This update doesn’t change anything now, but will help us prepare for future improvements.
