LockLapse vs Sesh

Prop your phone against a book, hit start, and work. LockLapse films your desk as a timelapse and ends it with a card carrying the numbers, hours, streak, subject and date. The card is the part you post. It renders itself when you finish, so a three-hour block becomes a clip without an edit. Recording and the card are free. HOW IT WORKS • Name what you're working on and tap start. The phone sits there and you work. • The running clock is burned into the footage, so the number stays legible while the timelapse plays and survives whatever edit the clip goes through. • Finish, and the card renders onto the end of the video with your total time, day streak, subject, date and a still from your own desk. • Save it to your camera roll or share it straight out. BUILT FOR LONG SESSIONS • The sensor runs at 5fps and the screen dims to near-black after twenty seconds, because a long session is a heat and battery problem before it is anything else. • A phone call, a notification or a switch to another app closes the current segment to disk and keeps every frame already recorded. • Recording picks up again on its own once the interruption ends, so a session never sits paused waiting for a button. • Focus and white balance settle for two seconds and then lock, so hours of footage don't hunt or drift in colour. LOCKLAPSE PRO • Every session you record. Free keeps the last seven days. • Four card themes (Midnight, Ember, Forest, Tape). • Any accent colour, with the rest of the card built from the one you pick. • Your name signed on the card, and the LockLapse wordmark off. Yearly with a free week, or one payment for life. Nothing leaves your phone. No account, no upload, no analytics. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Your camera is the only accountability partner that never lets you scroll. Sesh records a timelapse while you study - so you can see yourself being watched, and prove to yourself (and everyone else) that the session actually happened. Prop your phone up, hit start, and get to work. Sesh captures your session in the background and compresses it into a clean 30–60 second timelapse when you're done. No editing, no trimming, no wasted hours of footage to sort through — just point it, work, and post. Why it works Studies (and TikTok) agree: you focus harder when you know you're on camera. Sesh turns that psychology into a habit loop — record your session, watch your streak grow, and walk away with a video worth posting. What's inside — Start/stop timer with automatic timelapse capture — GitHub-style contribution heatmap of your last 52 weeks — Current streak, longest streak, and total hours studied — Miss a day without losing everything — one skip per week keeps your streak alive — Export straight to your camera roll, ready for TikTok, Reels, or Shorts Built for the grind Whether it's CS problem sets, MCAT prep, or a 4-hour thesis session, Sesh doesn't care what you're studying — it just makes sure you actually sat down and did it, and gives you proof. Your footage stays yours Sessions are stored on your device. Nothing uploads anywhere unless you choose to export it.
