Timesnap continuously captures full resolution images at preset time intervals, turning your device into a simple interval camera for full resolution time-lapse, stop motion, and other uses.
Simple is Very Good
I needed an App to take pictures of the technical parameters of my furnace displayed on a smart thermostat for 24 hours at a time. The App takes time-stamped pictures and saves them in the pictures library where they can be managed, especially once they are synchronized to the iCloud. I used 10 second or 60 seconds intervals and could see intermittent control problems in my heating system. After wasting $19.99 on a program that did not time-stamp the pictures, kept them in its own library and had no tools to deal with a few thousand images I found this App and was rescued. My thanks to the developers!
Doesn’t work as advertised
Doesn’t work on my iPhone 14 Pro. This takes photos at set intervals but that’s about it. It only takes 2MP images (not full res as advertised), uses a slower shutter speed than the standard iPhone camera (so images are motion blurred), and doesn’t sync with the correct lenses (so the 0.5x lens is actually the telephoto 2x lens). I could deal with the lens issue but have no use for blurred 2MP images - I could get better results using grabbed frames from HD video mode. All in all this didn’t work for me and was a waste of money.
Can’t use flash
This is a good app except the flash won’t work when using it. If I had known that, I wouldn’t have purchased it. I take lots of pictures indoors using the flash. I’ll still have to use my Bluetooth remote and self timer on camera. This is good to use outdoors. Hopefully this will be corrected in an upgraded
Simple and perfect!
Just what I needed for taking family photos. We are a large family with all ages down to 2 year old and taking the perfectly timed family portrait can be a challenge. I use a tripod but running back and forth to reset the countdown shutter is a pain. This app along with shooting in Live View allows me to find that one photo that has all of us in the right mode. We just setup on a tripod and shoot one photo to make sure it looks good and set a timed shutter. Every 2 seconds works well for me and we can now get just that perfect picture of the group! Love the simplicity of the setup and think it should be standard on every camera phone.
Works, but lack of functionality is disappointing
Does what it says, that is it captures images continuously at a selected interval, limited to 2, 5, 10, 30 and 60 seconds. Besides these interval options, there is no capability for custom settings. Desirable basic functions that aren’t supported with this app include: 1. Custom, user-specified settings for interval and duration of the image capture-period (or start, stop times). 2. Option to turn off/on the shutter sound. 3. Option to turn off/on the display during operation.
- Added option to enable camera flash - Further fixes to camera lens selector (Thanks Paulo!)
