## What is LightSeeker?

8K time-lapse. Smart stabilization. Capture the details of time.

LightSeeker brings 8K time-lapse and smart stabilization together in one photography app. Capture change frame by frame with high-resolution photos, then automatically analyze and correct subtle camera shake. Turn drifting clouds, shifting light and the city from day to night into clear, steady time-lapse films. Shoot, color grade and export in one app.

8K TIME-LAPSE, RICH IN DETAIL
Turn high-resolution photo sequences into time-lapse videos at up to 8K, with landscape 7680 × 4320 and portrait 4320 × 7680 output. Keep each original frame in Apple ProRAW or HEIF/JPEG for large-screen viewing and further editing. 8K availability depends on source resolution and the export capabilities of your device.

SMART STABILIZATION, STEADIER MOTION
Automatically analyze visual features across your sequence to correct small shifts and rotations between frames, reducing jitter during playback. Choose Fast, Standard or Fine analysis, preview the stabilization, then apply it to your final film. Stabilization is nondestructive and preserves your original photos. Results depend on scene detail and the amount of shake, and some cropping around the edges is required.

AEB AND HDR MERGE
Set the exposure step and number of shots for auto exposure bracketing (AEB). The app aligns and merges the exposures into an HDR photo to preserve more highlight and shadow detail in still, high-contrast scenes. Original captures are available for further editing.

FOCUS STACKING
Shoot at different focus distances and combine the sharp areas of each photo to extend depth of field. Use it for macro and still-life subjects when detail matters from front to back. Edit the merged photo in RAW.

CAPTURE PHOTO SEQUENCES
Set a capture interval and start countdown, and shoot in Apple ProRAW or HEIF/JPEG. Choose from the resolutions supported by your device and lens. Each original photo is saved separately, giving you room to refine your work later.

TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR SHOT
Adjust ISO, shutter speed, exposure compensation and white balance. Use focus lock, a grid, a horizon level, a histogram and overexposure warnings to guide composition and exposure. Preview your look as you shoot with live LUT monitoring.

ORGANIZE YOUR CAPTURES
Browse timelapse, AEB and focus stacks in one album. Filter by capture type and favorites, and pinch to switch between two and five columns.

EDIT THE ENTIRE SEQUENCE
Browse individual frames and apply LUTs, light and color adjustments across the whole sequence. Shape different areas with global, linear gradient and radial masks, then refine the composition with crop, rotation and stabilization. Edits are saved nondestructively, preserving your original photos.

EXPORT YOUR WAY
Export a time-lapse video, the current frame or the entire image sequence. Choose from multiple frame rates, resolutions and codecs, including H.264, HEVC and ProRes. Save to Photos when supported, or share files to continue creating elsewhere. Export HDR timelapse when your device, source media and encoding settings support it. Choose Dolby Vision with HEVC or use HLG.

8K—time as verse, light as art.

Apple ProRAW, 24MP/48MP capture, 4K/8K, HDR and ProRes availability depends on your device, lens, OS version, source media and encoding capabilities. The app shows the options available for your setup. Before a long capture, make sure you have enough storage space and keep your device steady.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.2 — 2026-11-12

LapseArc has evolved into LightSeeker, with new modes for HDR and focus stacking.
• AEB (auto exposure bracketing): Take several shots at different exposures. LightSeeker aligns shots affected by slight camera shake and merges them into a single RAW photo with more highlight and shadow detail.
• Focus stacking: LightSeeker detects scene depth and picks focus points for you. It corrects small shifts from camera shake and merges the shots into one RAW photo, keeping the foreground, middle ground, and background sharp.
• Also new: Edit HDR and focus-stacked photos in RAW and export your results. Filter your album by capture type and favorites, and export photos in HDR.
