Perch Cam

Nobody wants to hand their phone to a stranger mid-workout. Perch turns the phone itself into your photographer: prop it up, get in frame, and it takes the shot when you're ready. No sprinting back to check a timer. No filming your entire session to scrub for one good frame. Perch watches for you to settle into your pose and fires at the right moment ā again and again, hands-free, until you have the whole set. HOW A SESSION WORKS 1. Prop your phone anywhere ā a bench, a shelf, your bag. 2. Start a session and train. Perch detects when you're in frame, posed, and still, then takes the shot. Between sets, it waits. 3. When you're done, swipe through your shots: right to keep, left to toss, up to decide later. 4. Save the keepers. Only the photos you choose touch your camera roll ā no fifty-shot pileup. MADE FOR THE GYM ⢠Smart shutter: fires on a held pose, not a countdown ⢠Works with front or back camera ⢠Timer mode when you just want an interval ⢠Every shot lands in a private session, not your photo library ⢠Undo any decision while you sort ⢠B-Roll mode: hands-free 5, 10, or 15-second video clips (included in the one-time unlock) PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything runs on your phone. Detection happens on-device, your photos never upload anywhere, and there's no account to create. Perch can't see your photos ā nobody can, until you save the ones you want. ONE HONEST PRICE Perch is free to use: 3 sessions a week with up to 50 shots each, and reviewing your shots is never limited. Want unlimited sessions and B-Roll video? It's $7.99, once. No subscription. No ads. Ever. Prop it. Pose. It shoots itself.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Intervalo at none against Perch Cam's 1. Intervalo also leads on iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.5). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
