Imagine watching months of growth compressed into thirty seconds. A building rising from foundation to rooftop. A garden transforming through every season. Your own personal transformation over time. TimeLapse Director makes these kinds of videos possible for anyone — no specialized hardware, no leaving your phone unattended for days.
Built for real life, not a tripod
Capture a shot today, come back tomorrow, come back next week. The app remembers your project, sends you reminders when it's time to shoot, and its ghost image overlay helps you line up each new frame precisely with the last — so your final video looks intentional and smooth, not accidental and shaky.
Ghost Image Alignment
See your previous frame at 40% opacity beneath your live viewfinder. Match your position, your framing, your angle — then shoot. It takes seconds and makes the difference between a timelapse that feels professional and one that feels amateur.
Reminders That Keep Your Project Moving
Life gets busy. Set a reminder schedule on each project — daily, every few days, weekly — and TimeLapse Director keeps you on track. Your timelapse grows in the background of your life, one nudge at a time. Perfect for documenting fitness progress, beard or hair growth, weight loss, or orthodontic treatment over weeks and months.
Auto-Capture for Hands-Free Recording
For situations where you can leave your phone in place, Auto-Capture handles everything automatically. Set your interval and let the app work while you focus on something else.
Full Export Control
Pick your frames, set your playback speed, choose resolution and aspect ratio. Export a finished MP4 to your camera roll in seconds.
Free with Optional Premium Upgrade ($4.99)
Unlimited projects, 4K export, uninterrupted Auto-Capture, and no ads — all unlocked with a single one-time purchase. No subscription, ever. ## Rankings - #2,750,040 — Overall ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_AD_ID` - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_ATTRIBUTION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_TOPICS` - `android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.CAMERA` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_CAMERA` - `android.permission.INTERNET` - `android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS` - `android.permission.READ_MEDIA_IMAGES` - `android.permission.READ_MEDIA_VIDEO` - `android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED` - `android.permission.SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM` - `android.permission.WAKE_LOCK` - `com.GearHeads.timelapse.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION` - `com.android.vending.BILLING` - `com.android.vending.CHECK_LICENSE` - `com.google.android.finsky.permission.BIND_GET_INSTALL_REFERRER_SERVICE` - `com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID` ## Similar extensions and apps - [TimeLapse Multifunction Camera](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.vn.timelapsemultifunction.camera.kk) — 128,401 users, 2.29 / 5 - [SnapLapse: Daily Photo Journal](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.bhandari.stitch) — 8 users - [Timelapse Studio](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.sixtricks.timelapsestudio) — 186 users - [Lapse Maker](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.tinyepoch.lapsemaker) — 506 users - [TimeLab - Timelapse Creator](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.mobilephoton.timelab) — 153,414 users, 2.17 / 5 - [Timelapse Camera & Videos](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.kaka.mama.studios.timelapse.timelapsecamera.videorecorder) — 633,413 users, 3.48 / 5 - [LapseLab - Easy time-lapse vid](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.michredk.lapselab) — 141 users - [Long Time Lapse Photography](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.strange_dev.long_timelaps) — 1,065 users - [Timelapse Pro Camera & Video](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.amnlapps.snaplapse) — 1,470 users - [TimeLapse Camera](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.abzpro.timelapsecamera) — 495 users - [Time-Lapse Creator](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.sukros.timelapse) — 1,485,465 users, 3.22 / 5 - [Photo Video Time Lapse](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dsandds.photovideotimelapse.sm) — 6,912 users --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.GearHeads.timelapse)
