## What is QuickTimeLapse?

Turn long videos into 60-second timelapses, ready for Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.

Pick 1 to 5 videos. QuickTimeLapse auto-calculates the speed and crunches them into a single 60-second clip. No sign-up, no uploads — your videos never leave your iPhone.

— Features —

• Up to 5 videos at once, auto-stitched into 60 seconds
• Day Counter auto-numbering for daily check-ins (workouts, yoga, cooking, travel) — filenames carry Day 1 / Day 2 …
• Custom filename templates — mix date, sequence, and your own text
• PHPicker-based selection — no full Photos library access required
• Fully on-device — nothing uploaded

— Who it's for —

Anyone tracking daily workouts, yoga, cooking, or travel vlogs as a timelapse series.
Anyone who wants to crunch long footage into Reels, TikTok, or YouTube Shorts.

— Pricing —

Free to download. The first conversion each day is ad-free; from the second conversion on, you'll see one ad before processing.
"Remove Ads" is a one-time purchase that removes all ads forever (no subscription).

— Story —

I film my workouts every day and wanted to compress them into 60-second timelapses for Instagram. I used to airdrop every clip to my Mac just to make a timelapse in iMovie — the back-and-forth was a hassle. I couldn't find a tool that felt right, so I vibe-coded one myself. Hope it helps if you're in the same boat.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.2.1 — 2026-07-12

v1.2.1 — Stability update:

• Source videos are kept after conversion, so you can tweak settings and re-convert without picking again
• Very short clips convert more reliably and are no longer falsely flagged as failed
• Equal-split mode automatically falls back to uniform speed when a clip is too short
• Clear upfront warning when a clip is assigned too much output time
• Ads that occasionally get stuck now close automatically and return you to the app

### 1.2 — 2026-07-01

This update makes exports steadier and smoother:

• Re-run with the same clips after an export — tweak settings and convert again without re-picking
• More reliable exports for very short videos, no more false failures
• Smarter handling of very short clips in both per-clip and equal-split modes
• Earlier warning when clip durations don't add up, so you don't wait for nothing
• Fixed a rare issue where an ad could hang and block you from continuing

As always, thanks for your feedback — it keeps QuickTimeLapse getting better.

### 1.1 — 2026-06-19

• Custom output length: use the slider to choose anywhere from 30 to 60 seconds
• Per-clip time split: decide how much of the output each clip gets, or switch to equal compression or equal time in one tap
• iCloud sync: enable in Settings to keep your filename presets and Day Counter in sync across devices — survives reinstalls and device upgrades
• Fixed an issue where long exports running in the background could silently fail; now shows a clear error and cancels safely
• Fixed a rare case where the output video could be shorter than expected

### 1.0 — 2026-06-11

No release notes.
