Excellent

Works perfectly

Simple is Very Good

I needed an App to take pictures of the technical parameters of my furnace displayed on a smart thermostat for 24 hours at a time. The App takes time-stamped pictures and saves them in the pictures library where they can be managed, especially once they are synchronized to the iCloud. I used 10 second or 60 seconds intervals and could see intermittent control problems in my heating system. After wasting $19.99 on a program that did not time-stamp the pictures, kept them in its own library and had no tools to deal with a few thousand images I found this App and was rescued. My thanks to the developers!

Full resolution? I’m not so sure

It says that it takes pictures in full resolution but when comparing photos taken on the app & on the standard phone camera side by side, the apps photos don’t appear to be as clear & the colours are definitely night as vibrant. The picture taken on the app used around 450kb & the standard one used 1.4mb so I’m not sure if that’s relevant but doesn’t seem right.

Just What I Needed!

Great for taking your own "model" shots! ;) You can set how long you want the delay to be between shots, which is very handy. Super simple to use. Let's you switch between front and back camera. The only improvements I would like are for there to be special effects (such as black & white, sepia, etc.), and for there to be a focus option for the camera, like you get with the pre-installed camera app. You tap an area of the screen, which you want to be the focal point, and it can change the lighting of a picture. Handy app for 99p though, and it does what I need. Now I can take great selfies!

Doesn’t work as advertised

Doesn’t work on my iPhone 14 Pro. This takes photos at set intervals but that’s about it. It only takes 2MP images (not full res as advertised), uses a slower shutter speed than the standard iPhone camera (so images are motion blurred), and doesn’t sync with the correct lenses (so the 0.5x lens is actually the telephoto 2x lens). I could deal with the lens issue but have no use for blurred 2MP images - I could get better results using grabbed frames from HD video mode. All in all this didn’t work for me and was a waste of money.

Can’t use flash

This is a good app except the flash won’t work when using it. If I had known that, I wouldn’t have purchased it. I take lots of pictures indoors using the flash.
I’ll still have to use my Bluetooth remote and self timer on camera. This is good to use outdoors.
Hopefully this will be corrected in an upgraded

Simple and perfect!

Just what I needed for taking family photos. We are a large family with all ages down to 2 year old and taking the perfectly timed family portrait can be a challenge. I use a tripod but running back and forth to reset the countdown shutter is a pain. This app along with shooting in Live View allows me to find that one photo that has all of us in the right mode. We just setup on a tripod and shoot one photo to make sure it looks good and set a timed shutter. Every 2 seconds works well for me and we can now get just that perfect picture of the group! Love the simplicity of the setup and think it should be standard on every camera phone.

Maybe Someday

Can't switch between lenses, can't flip front to back, can't capture DNG RAW photos. Has no settings whatsoever.
Positive: super simple to use but extremely limited.

Works, but lack of functionality is disappointing

Does what it says, that is it captures images continuously at a selected interval, limited to 2, 5, 10, 30 and 60 seconds. Besides these interval options, there is no capability for custom settings. Desirable basic functions that aren’t supported with this app include:
1. Custom, user-specified settings for interval and duration of the image capture-period (or start, stop times).
2. Option to turn off/on the shutter sound.
3. Option to turn off/on the display during operation.
