Some things change slowly: your renovation, your plants or even your fitness. Day to day you can barely notice, but month to month, the difference is remarkable. Evogram helps you see that difference. Create collections for anything you want to track, take photos at your own pace, and watch them transform into a timelapse over time. That's it. No account, no server, no subscription. Your photos live on your device, period. What you can track: Anything that changes over time: home renovations, plant growth, fitness progress, pets, pregnancies, art projects, bonsai, aquariums. If it changes, Evogram can document it. Features: - Ghost overlay camera: align each shot perfectly with an adjustable semi-transparent overlay of your previous photo - Custom reminders: set per-collection intervals so you never forget to capture a moment - Compare mode: side by side or slider view to see change at a glance - Timelapse export: compile your photos into a video or GIF at your chosen resolution and framerate - Local first: your photos never leave your device Why Evogram? Every other app I found wanted a monthly subscription just to export a video. I built Evogram because I wanted something simple that I could pay for once and own forever: it is just a app that does what it says. Pay once. Track forever.
