Read full description

Lapsecho is a camera app focused on timelapse and fixed-point observation. Capture a plant, a construction site, or the sky—either one photo a day from the same framing, or continuous interval shots compiled into a video. Everything stays on your device. ■ Two modes ・Shoot now (interval timelapse) Clouds, sunsets, cooking, crafts, study sessions. Set the interval and use blackout power-saving mode during long runs. ・Fixed-point observation Plants, renovations, kids growing up, before/after. A ghost overlay helps you match the previous shot. ■ Alignment tools ・Ghost overlay (opacity control) ・Rule-of-thirds grid ・Gyro level indicator ■ Stable capture ・Tap to lock AE / AF / AWB ・Shooting planner (interval × duration → frame count & length) ・Blackout mode (dims the screen during interval capture) ・Auto-stop when battery is low (keeps frames already captured) ■ Projects ・Save frames per project ・Rename, pin, sort by last capture ・Frame list with preview and delete ■ Export ・Compile frames to MP4 on device ・Per-frame duration, crossfade, fps (24/30/60) ・Preview and save to Photos ■ Data Photos and projects are stored locally. No account required. No cloud sync. ■ Lapsecho Pro (one-time purchase) Free tier includes all shooting features. Pro removes the export watermark, enables higher-resolution export, unlimited projects, and hides the ad on the export screen. See in-app details. ※ A tripod or fixed mount is recommended for timelapse. Handheld use may not suit all subjects.
