Record your loop, play the preview over it in the editor, then open Instagram or TikTok and add the track there. Sequences let you set a different duration for every shot, and any timer can be dialled from 1 to 180 seconds.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Loop Cam at 3.7 against Video Timer's 2.3. Video Timer's advantage is review sentiment (40% vs 0%) and in-app purchases (none vs 2). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
