### 2/5 — Mea:(😕😕

*2026-07-25, version 4.2.61*

Ok but it needs more features🙁🫤😑

### 4/5 — 👍

*2024-11-28, version 4.2.51*

This is a great app but I really wish there were sound effects that you can add to your video. It was also really annoying when it said that I had a limit of two projects and had to pay to get more. But it does have great quality videos, it's super fun to use, and it's really simple when you know how to do it. 👌

### 3/5 — Ok.

*2024-11-12, version 4.2.50*

It is good but to many things are pay to use.Keep in mind that you might hafe to pay money to use most of the features.I wish that the projects are free.-Thank You for your time.

### 1/5 — It wont let me put videos in it after i payed the money TOO PUT VIDEOS

*2025-01-05, version 4.2.52*

Im trying to time lapse something for school and it wouldn’t let me, so I paid 3 dollars for a strange reason. And now it wont even let me do it someone help me

### 1/5 — 9’

*2023-07-12, version 4.2.1*

85# ;95 /@$

### 1/5 — Can’t edit videos

*2022-06-16, version 4.18*

Asked me for one time purchase to edit items already in my camera roll. Spent $2 to find out I can’t upload videos and edit them. Have to take a video with the app to then edit. Waste of money.

### 1/5 — I can’t save/share any videos that Ive made…

*2021-10-28, version 4.17*

So I just downloaded this app to my ipad and it is sooo user friendly, I was super excited about finding a time lapse app that doesn't cost an arm and a leg to remove a watermark or something silly like that. I just made my first video as a practise, but when I go to “save video” or “share video” the app shuts down 😠 I kinda need to get the videos out of the app in order to successfully use the app lol “Life lapse” wants 60$ a year to remove watermarks so I was onto the next one, found this gem, but it’s literally useless to me not being able to export my videos to use for my business pages on instagram and TikTok 🤦🏻‍♀️ if a fix becomes available, I’ll make my review 5 star; but until the app becomes useable for me, I’ll have to stick with the 1. Which is totally unfortunate cause it was a great app up until saving the videos…

### 1/5 — Great if it worked 🤷🏻‍♂️

*2021-02-16, version 4.17*

11Gb free space on device and after 800 shots at 3mb (which is only 2.4Gb) the app stops shooting and says there is no storage space left.

Completely useless

### 1/5 — Problems.

*2020-12-26*

I just started using this app and made 2 claymations. I wanted to make a 3rd when it said you could only have 2. I was wondering if there was a way to delete the claymations, and I looked at one review here that said if you hit the edit button, it can delete them. I searched everywhere for the edit button and couldn’t find it.
There was another option where you could pay $5 to make more. But when I bought the voice-over, I thought it was a bad idea, which brings me to my next problem. I bought the voice over option for 0.99.  I used it on one of my claymations, and heard more static than my actual voice. I watch plenty of you tubers who have great voice overs, this one was pretty bad. Please make the quality of the voice over better, or I want a refund.
Please respond as soon as you can and help me.
Thank you.

### 1/5 — Low res only

*2020-12-26, version 4.15*

Nowadays everything is 1080p or 4K but the max on this app is 720p so I deleted immediately

### 1/5 — PAID FOR IT TO CRASH!!

*2020-11-22, version 4.13*

Just paid to upgrade to be able to import media & as soon as I did, every time I try to import something, the app crashes & closes! Horrible!

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-10-18, version 4.13*

I have been filming stop motion for 3 years and haven’t seen anything worse then this, the capture button freezes and ,the app always crashes ,do not by it if you have anger issues this app is terrible.(don’t believe me go sub to brick animation I have 24k subs).to rap this up the app is TRASH TRASH TRASH TRASH TRASH

### 1/5 — Horrible well it is easy to use and great but...

*2020-04-28, version 4.06*

IT ONLY LETS YOU HAVE TWO VIDEOS!!!!! AND YOU CAN NOT DELETE ANY OF YOUR PROJECTS... UNLESS YOU PAY FOR THE PRO VERSION!!! I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND GETTING THIS APP!!!

And I think if they where nice to let us have more and let us delete projects it would be a good app and I would not delete it sorry I am deleting if they don’t fix this in a few days sorry DO NOT GET THIS APP!!!!

I started using OSnap when it was first released many years ago and have enjoyed creating stop motion videos of popup cards and origami that I create.

### 5/5 — Unlimited

frekn swiiiiiet

### 5/5 — So amazing

*2024-10-12, version 4.2.49*

I loved doing this with my sister, we made the cutest little videos 😁😁

### 5/5 — love it!

*2024-09-30*

great app with well thought-out functions and easy to use! the basic version already offers a wide range of functions and the upgrade model is very fair.

**Developer response:** Thank you!! 🙏🙏

### 5/5 — This is a great app

*2024-01-18, version 4.2.37*

The app is great but after two video you have to pay to have more and you cannot import videos into your own camera unless you pay

### 5/5 — OSnap

*2023-11-06, version 4.2.34*

We use it every day to monitor scientific experiments. I have tried most of them, and this one has flash, frame count and all the features I need. It is fun to use and the flash allows me to detect when the picture is taken and start a new process.

### 5/5 — Solid for manual Timelapses

*2023-09-22*

Ivr been using this for a few years now. Pretty solid for the simple set of tasks it supports.  Lovely to work with. Obviously there are added features I’d love around editing and in other spots. But really nice for what it does.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the great review!! 🙏 ❤️. Also, feel free to drop us a line anytime with specific suggestions and feature requests at featurerequests@osnapphotoapp.com. Thank you again!!
