Watch anything change - in 30 seconds. TimeLapse turns the Ring camera you already own into an automatic time-lapse of whatever it sees: your garden coming into bloom, a renovation taking shape, a storefront through the seasons, the sky and its weather, a workshop build, or any project that changes over days, weeks, or months. Snapshots are captured on the schedule you set, then stitched into one reel that grows day after day. No new hardware. No editing. No babysitting. - Runs on your existing Ring camera - nothing to buy, mount, or wire - Set a cadence (every 5-60 min) and a capture window once, per project - A reel that grows with your project, rebuilt automatically every day - Watch, download, and share the finished reel with one tap - Get notified the moment a new reel is ready Perfect for gardeners, renovators, makers, shop owners, sky watchers - anyone curious to see slow change made visible. Privacy-first by design: still snapshots only - no live video, no audio, no AI, no face recognition. Encrypted in transit and at rest; you can delete your account and all data at any time, or simply unlink. TimeLapse is added to your Ring account from inside the Ring app, and managed there.

About

The iPhone's timelapse mode controls nothing. DSLR workflows control everything, but weigh a ton. Interval puts full control in a simple app. LOCKABLE MANUAL CONTROLS ISO, shutter speed, white balance and focus: leave each setting on auto, dial it in by hand, or lock it on the current reading. That lock is what removes flicker, the flaw that gives away amateur timelapses. THE INTERVAL CALCULATOR Give it the length of your event, the video length you want and the frame rate: Interval computes the interval and tells you the photo count, the storage and the battery you need before you even start. No more session ruined by poor planning. STABILIZED HYPERLAPSE Set a target point on your subject, walk, realign the ghost frame of the previous photo, shoot. At export, the analysis aligns every photo and smooths the path. Fluid results, no rig, no tripod. BUILT FOR LONG SESSIONS The screen genuinely lowers its brightness while capturing to save battery. The app pauses by itself if the iPhone gets too hot, then resumes. An incoming call no longer ruins anything: the session picks up exactly where it stopped, locked settings included. PRECISE FRAMING Native 4:3, 16:9, 3:2 or square, with a guide showing exactly what the video will contain. Rule of thirds mapped to your chosen frame, and a horizon line to set the phone up straight. YOUR PHOTOS STAY YOURS Every session keeps its full-quality HEIC photos. Re-export in 1080p or 4K, at 24, 25, 30 or 60 frames per second, as many times as you like. Nothing is thrown away. NO DATA COLLECTED No account, no server, no trackers. Your photos and videos never leave your iPhone. That is not a marketing promise: the app has nowhere to send anything. ONE PRICE, EVERYTHING, FOREVER The app is free with all manual controls, 1080p export and three full-quality exports to try everything. A one-time purchase unlocks 4K, removes the watermark and lifts the export limit. For good. Never a subscription. Built by a photographer who actually uses it in the field.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TimeLapse at none against Interval Pro's 1. TimeLapse also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
