Take a quick body photo every day and watch your progress turn into a smooth timelapse video. FormLapse auto-aligns position, tilt and scale, so you don't need to line up a ghost overlay or use a tripod. Casual shots are fine. Your photos never leave your iPhone: no network connection, no account.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: StepMon at none against FormLapse's 3. FormLapse's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
