TimeCam is a professional time-lapse camera that lets you fast-forward time with your iPhone. 【Capture modes】 · Manual shot: tap to capture a single frame anytime. · Interval: set a fixed interval (seconds/minutes/hours) for automatic continuous shooting. · Daily schedule: auto-start at a chosen time each day — perfect for sunrises, clouds, and starry skies. 【Steady results】 · Reference overlay: pin the previous frame on screen to keep your camera position fixed and every frame aligned. · Feature-point alignment + auto crop: automatically corrects shake for smoother playback. 【Pro controls】 · Switch front/back cameras, ultra-wide / wide / telephoto lenses, and pinch-to-zoom. · Manual exposure with adjustable shutter and ISO, plus AE / AF / white-balance lock. 【Compose & export】 · Choose 24 / 30 / 60 fps and add a timestamp. · Import existing photos from your library, resume unfinished sessions. · Batch delete, preview, and save straight to your photo album. All photos and videos are processed on-device — TimeCam never uploads your footage. The app collects only anonymous crash and usage data to improve the product, and you can turn it off in Settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TimeCam at none against TimerShot's 3. TimeCam also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). TimerShot's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 10 days). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
