Love It!

Could you add presets so I wouldn’t have to set it whenever I use it? That’s all it needs!

Recht teuere und neugierige App

Funktioniert nur mit vollem Zugriff auf Fotomediathek. 2Sterne Abzug dafür

90 min recording and - nothing saved

Well that was a dud - wasted money and app did not save lol

Great App Except

I like the app but cannot access the function unless if I give full access to my library. I tried with limited access which is an option but will not work with the limited selections I made.

Remote trigger please

Title says it all.

App will not initialize

This looks like EXACTLY what I have been trying to find for a long time. I purchased the app, but when attempting to initialize it, the app says it requires access permissions to photo library and camera, and provides access slide buttons. The slide buttons function visually, but only prompt a window to guide the user to the settings/permissions site of the iPhone. Once the permissions are again granted, the app says it says it requires access permissions to photo library and camera. Once again granted, the app says it says it requires access permissions to photo library and camera. Once again granted, the app says it says it requires access permissions to photo library and camera. Once again granted, the app says it says it requires access permissions to photo library and camera.

I am guessing that there is something straightforward here in the execution of this app which might have been overlooked.

If that is the case, I will jump immediately to reload the app.

For now, it has no use.

Response from developer

Hey, It's strange that you're experiencing such a behaviour. Try to uninstall the app and reinstall it. It should fix your issue

Selected video can’t be added.

Wanted to select a video from iOS library and couldn’t select it as the select option was greyed out. The video was 2 hours long.

Fast alles gut

ReeLapse ist eine sehr starke App mit vielen Einstellungsmöglichkeiten. Besonders positiv ist die Aufnahme in Apple ProRes.

Leider fehlt die Möglichkeit, Aufnahmen direkt auf externen Festplatten zu speichern. Gerade bei großen ProRes-Dateien wäre das extrem wichtig.

Außerdem wäre ein klassisches (Codec) AppleLog-Format für noch mehr Flexibilität in der Nachbearbeitung wünschenswert.

Viel Potenzial und Luft nach oben.

Very hard to learn

They never reply to your help request

The Best Timelapse App on iPhone — Hands Down

ReeLapse is exactly what I’ve always wanted in a timelapse app. Clean interface, easy controls, and solid performance. The motion blur, interval control, and exposure ramping are insanely good. This is now my go-to app for all timelapse work. Feature request for the developers: please add support for DNG Bayer raw images. Then it will be the GOAT.

No fiable

Me ocurre a menudo, que dejar grabando el video y cuando termina, no ser has grabado nada. Hace copia de seguridad y el fichero está, pero no se puede reproducir da menaje de incompatible. Muy frustrante. Después de videos de 1 hora.

No me deja probarla

Si no pago no puedo ni probarla, pues nada, estaba buscando una app para timelapses con el iphone para comprarla si era necesario, pero si no puedo probarla va a ser que no.

Stopped working with iPhone 17

The app stopped working with the new iPhone 17. What gives?

Easy to use and high quality results.

This app can generate 12mp time lapses with motion blur without using ND filters. I’ve been using it with no hiccups on my iPhone 15 pro. I love what I’m seeing. Here’s my wish list for future improvements:
1. Option for a chime when the recording ends.
2. Option for resetting the screen brightness to normal viewing when the recording ends.
3. Option for remembering previous settings so I don’t have to set frame counts, interval & effects all the time.
4. Support Apple Watch remote functions.

First 3 shouldn’t be a big deal, love to see #4 also.

Response from developer

Thank you for the amazing feedback and detailed suggestions! 🙌 We love your ideas — especially about the chime, screen reset, and saving previous settings. Apple Watch remote control is now available since ReeLapse 2.0 update - our biggest update ever! Stay tuned, and happy timelapsing!

Trop d’applis

Dommage de devoir payer 4 applications en plus lorsqu’on achète déjà plusieurs objectifs chez vous. Pour que ne pas les fusionner en une seule ou alors proposer une réduction si on achète des objectifs

Full photo library access!Seriously?

I cannot use the app after purchasing, I allow limited photo option,but it need to be access all photo library to use it . Why should I allow this app to get all my other photos and data?

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback! Apple’s privacy model currently requires full access in order to let apps browse and save media. Rest assured, ReeLapse doesn’t access or analyze your content — it’s only needed for saving and viewing the time-lapses you'll be producing. We understand your concern and trust in your understanding.

Sucked all my data plan

I don't see any reason for that much data being used by the app. How in the world don't you at least ask if we want to use the data? This app is obviously being used abroad and it can drain the whole dataplan. Because of the app I got charged crazy by the carrier and I don't even know what's the benefit of draining 4GB of 5G to make a 30min Timelapse?

Also quite unfriendly UX for non-professional folks. Zero explanation on what the buttons do, and why would people pick the number of frames? We want to pick the time it lasts and the interval or the interval and the final timing, not the number of frames 🤨
Finally should allow to extend while we shoot the Timelapse, what if the sunset lasts more than expected? Then we can't continue the Timelapse which is stupid.

Lot of time wasted

At first I thought this app was nice, but after having multiple time lapse movies ending up being g corrupted files and u readable, I’m giving up. Don’t waste your money. You’ll end up being very frustrated.

Monthly program not accepted

I do not understand why monthly purchasing is on error but lifetime has no problem to buy. Company has doing some trick to subscribes.
