TimeLapsed 1.0

The iPhone camera that made time visible.

TimeLapsed began as an unapologetically deep timelapse and light-painting camera. It put manual exposure, compositing, rendering, profiles, automation, Siri, Apple Watch control, and field-planning tools into one app for people who wanted more than a start button.

What version 1.0 could do

This is where the story started.

These controls, experiments, and field tools are the foundation the new app grows from.

Two complete interfaces

Easy Mode for getting the shot quickly; Advanced Mode for photographers who wanted every control.

Professional camera control

Manual ISO, shutter, focus, white balance, lens choice, exposure lock, and live monitoring.

Timelapse from capture to export

Intervals, frame management, timeline editing, filters, rendering, and multiple export formats.

Light painting and star trails

Live frame blending, Comet Mode, vehicle trails, star trails, and more than twenty-five blending modes.

Plan before the shutter

Timelapse calculators, photography locations, weather, Sun and Moon AR, flight radar, and rocket tracking.

Control without touching the phone

More than fifty Siri commands, Apple Watch control, automation, and remote workflows.
