Fine until..

I have been using this app for several years, remembering to take photos where I can. I now have the problem that I have more than 1200 photos and my phone doesn’t have enough memory to export them as a GIF. I exported as a video instead but then it didn’t play. Not sure what to do from here other than to export them all to third party video or GIF software. However it would seem that it doesn’t export the images in the right order so this is potentially a bit useless now, other than for taking and aligning photos.

Epic time lapse app EPIC

I wasted my money on three other apps and then found this one the cheapest of the lot, the most effective because I could capture lots of different images in different outfits etc to track weight loss. The other apps I paid much more money for only allowed me to take one image per day. I could take countless with this app. Five stars

Great for face time lapses

I’ve used this app since 2019. At this point, I have a 5 year face time lapse and counting :)

This app has everything that you’ll really need for a time lapse - saved photo albums with dates, ability to adjust photos to match up with previous photos, ability to convert the album into a video, etc. Sure, the developers haven’t touched this in 5 years, but it works just fine.

One thing note - a lot of times with time lapse apps, people have concerns about their data getting wiped and losing years of progress. Never had such an issue with this app - although it does get noticeably more laggy when you have hundreds and hundreds of photos on it. My recommendation is that if you’re concerned about losing your data, periodically back up your photos or save them to iCloud.

Overall I’d recommend this app if you just need something that’s quick and easy to use. It’s not necessarily going to give you the best quality results. (for example, when you convert the album in a video, you lose some image quality). Nevertheless, it’s gonna get the job done.

Perfect App for taking a before and after

This app is exactly what I needed for taking before and after pics of work completed for my business. Super easy to use. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

How does the camera not let you use the functions of the iPhone?

I can’t use any of the base functionality of my iPhones camera besides flash? I would like to be able to zoom out as I’m taking a picture of my garden everyday to show the growth, and the best spot would require me to use 0.5x zoom. Disappointing $1 spent.

Otherwise it says what it says it does.

Works ok but no option to use .5x lens

Can’t overlay on top of photos I’ve already taken with .5x because the app won’t switch cameras.

Timelapse

FYI, this is the one your looking for.
Yes it works with rear camera as well.

4 years!!!

I’ve been using this app for 4 years and i absolutely love it!!! I love that even when you upload a picture from camera roll you can adjust it and move it accordingly!!! Absolutely love this app and seeing the way i changed throughout the years - is amazing!!!

Please Allow Us To Use Portrait Mode

Please allow us to use portrait mode on the newer iPhones and allow us to use the normal front camera zoom. I got my new phone and I can’t take these selfies properly anymore because of this :( I’ve been taking them for 5 months please help

GREAT APP

I never write reviews but I’m literally writing my first one to show how much I love this app. I’ve been taking selfies to make a time lapse for almost 5 years now, but the app I used before wasn’t very good. I’ve really struggled to find other apps that fit my needs but this one is actually perfect. I love how you can adjust each photo even after you take it to ensure that everything is in line. Before, all my photos were all over the place but I just spent the past couple hours lining all my imported photos (I have A LOT) and now the video is perfect!! I love how you can adjust the lighting before taking a picture, which I could never do before. Also, it’s so much easier to line up pictures with the guide in this app. Lastly, the process to create a video is super fast, I remember having to wait for minutes on the last app I used. I wish I found this app earlier definitely worth it!!

I only have one issue and that is when I export my pictures to my camera roll, they are all out of order and have today’s date. I hope this can be fixed!
