### 5/5 — Does the Calculations for You - UPDATE

*2018-05-25, version 1.8.3*

I very much appreciate this app. It answers all the questions regarding setting up for a time lapse in order to get the exact sequence and length.

I recommend it to anyone who wants to do perfect time lapse clips.

To the Developer: Please include landscape mode. I use this on my iPad with keyboard.  I have to lay on my side to use this app (kidding).

UPDATE: To the Developer, thank you for accepting my suggestion and updating the app.  This  makes an already excellent app even better!  I can now sit straight up and use this app!

### 5/5 — iPhone X résolution

*2018-05-07*

Très bonne application, simple d'emploi !

Manque le support de l'écran de l'iPhone X.

Very good application, easy to use!

Miss the support of the screen of the iPhone X.

**Developer response:** Merci for the rating! Per your request, I’ve updated the UI to work perfectly with the iPhone X display.

### 5/5 — Works great

*2017-12-04, version 1.7.0*

Granted, part of my motivation for writing a review is to contradict the obvious spam review. The app works great keeps my feeble mind from having to calculate so many zeros and decimal points and then wonder if I did it correctly. For the price it is well worth the ease of mind to know you got a legitimate calculation. Works well, works easy, works predictably. Nothing fancy just basic math.

### 5/5 — Does not work

*2017-06-14, version 1.7.0*

I usually never by apps. This is maybe the second app in 5 years I have ever paid for.  And guess what, it does not even work. Now that's disappointing! 
The problem is that when I try and enter something in the information fields nothing happens. It will not allow me to enter anything. There is no response, nothing happens. So, I bit the bullet and paid, now I feel like they just stole my dollar. 
Is there any support to get this working??

### 5/5 — Happy

*2015-12-21, version 1.1.2*

This time lapse calculator does what I want. Tried others and they all worked backwards. I know my FPS, Interval, and film length, but how long will be out in the field shooting? This App tells me, thank the lord! Well done!

### 5/5 — Great time lapse app

*2014-08-17, version 1.1.2*

Says what it does and does what is says. Just what I was looking for.

### 5/5 — Best time-lapse tool

*2014-08-05, version 1.1.2*

After wasting my money on several other time lapse apps, I finally came across this one. It’s the only one that makes it easy to calculate the interval setting for my DSLR. The interface is fast and clean. I recommend it for any photographer’s tool kit.

### 5/5 — Great add to my digital toolkit

*2014-06-16*

For both professional and amateur photographers, this app is an excellent way to dial in your intervalometer to achieve a know duration and not overshoot.  As an editor and photographer this is very useful.  Nice clean interface.  Thanks!

### 5/5 — Great tool

*2014-06-08, version 1.0.4*

Just what I was looking for, at least in terms of a time lapse calculator.

### 5/5 — Useful app

*2014-06-08, version 1.0.4*

Easy to use app. Exactly what I was looking for.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-04-28, version 1.8.4*

Nothing happens to when you hit the calculate button.

### 2/5 — Slick, but only up to 99 days

*2015-05-13, version 1.1.2*

We're operating on supercomputers that can handle large numbers?  Why limit the calculations to event durations up to 99 days??  Im trying to plan a shoot for 8 months. 
Everything is slick, but users really need to be able to enter larger values. If there is a space constraint, change the input or display style.

### 3/5 — Not bad but...

*2018-08-10, version 1.8.4*

This app does what it is supposed to do. It has all the features you need and creates the information that is essential to making a good time lapse film. However, the arrow buttons used to input information such as seconds, minutes, and hours are too small and too close to the input display. When pushing these buttons, one cannot see the input display, so one has to constantly remove their finger to see the display. This can be very frustrating.

### 3/5 — Simple to Use

*2016-05-16*

Needs a timer for the Event duration would be help if you have eg 2 hrs to shoot a timer would be great to let you know

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We are working on including a built-in timer in our next update.

### 4/5 — I really love it BUT

*2025-08-26, version 2.0.4*

It would be perfect if I was able to just click on a value text box and just type in the number I want on my phone. Instead I have to hold down my finger for a long time when I have a large number. Is this a problem with my phone, or the app? I would be so happy if this could be updated.
Much love

### 4/5 — Basic tool / works well

*2023-03-19*

Basic tool - works well.   2 dream features I’d love to see : #1 Would be nice if down arrow would cycle from zero to max value of field (say 0 seconds & hitting down arrow would go to 59) #2. Allow 1:1 time parameter so this can be used as a data calculator tool.  ( 1 hour event at 1 hour playback at frame rate and res would yield data calculation).   Just a thought … would make this a one stop app!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! I like the idea of cycling through to the max value with the down arrow. I will consider it! The current storage calculations are so rough that I wouldn’t want to present that as a major feature in its current form, but that’s something to think about. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Excellent tool

*2025-10-23, version 2.0.4*

This is great for a novice like me with my new Timelapse camera and no idea lol. I can now easily get my settings right - thank you

### 5/5 — No-Nonsense, StraightUp

*2025-10-08, version 2.0.4*

Simple, no-nonsense Timelapse calculator.  Only a few parameters, but even if you’re trying to specifically calculate frames instead of time, you can deduce that pretty easily with the parameters given.  This is what I like.  It’s not trying to be more than it needs to be, it’s extremely easy to use, and it gives you the results you want and the app itself has an easily identifiable name for when you’re swiping through your Atlantic Ocean of apps looking for a tool.  Gotta love it.  Any complainers need to reevaluate their expectations of reality.

### 5/5 — Great tool

*2025-06-23*

This application is a great tool to calculate your time lapse with no hassle

### 5/5 — Brilliant and Simple

*2023-06-07, version 2.0.2*

What a great little app for working out Timelapse. Worth getting just for occasional use only

### 5/5 — Simple à utiliser et efficace

*2022-12-31*

L’application ne fait qu’une chose, mais elle le fait bien. Elle me permet de programmer de façon efficace mon appareil photo. Avec une traduction en français, elle serait parfaite 🙂

**Developer response:** Merci! I will look into multi-language support.

### 5/5 — Very useful, easy to use clear results and parameters

*2020-09-30, version 1.8.4*

I love this app. Does what it’s intended to do efficiently and intuitively.

Love it. Works just as intended and it’s nice and simple.

### 5/5 — Easy results...what you need.

*2020-03-07, version 1.8.4*

Calculate final video duration, shutter, or time needed to achieve your desired result. Well designed app, by a dev who obviously wants to create a useful product.

### 5/5 — Top

*2020-02-23*

Fait le Job .  Calcul rapidé super utile

**Developer response:** Merci!

### 5/5 — Avoids having to do the maths
