Life Lapse
Life Lapse is an iOS app for learning, capturing and editing stop-motion videos on a phone. Capture tools include live frame capture, a ghost overlay, interval timer, hands-free shooting and automatic stitching. Layers and masking let users blend stop-motion with live video from a single shot. Editing options include timeline work, frame realignment and more than 20 Pro tools, such as freeze, boomerang, reverse and filters. Users can add built-in music or their own audio, and the maker says exports are available in HD or 4K. It works offline, and videos can be shared to Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and other social media. The free version includes essential features and unlimited projects; advanced editing tools and tutorials are available through Pro. The app requires iOS 15.0 or later and is listed for iPhone only. The maker says it cannot access users’ creations and does not own videos made with the app; its privacy policy describes analytics collecting screen and interaction patterns and device details.
