Review summary

Earthlapse is widely praised for its stunning Earth imagery and calming ambient soundtrack, offering a relaxing visual experience.

Cons

Large storage size / significant storage hog
Content is limited and not regularly updated; few videos/images
No real-time/live feed; media are looped prerecorded videos
Compatibility issues with older devices/OS and cross‑device availability
HD quality issues on Apple TV

2019-08-24	Jo*****	I was written by Jenson Creative LLC about my concerns about the APP and for the first time I actually had someone write me personally about my concerns instead of like other most other apps seem to do with their auto responses to customers. It was very much appreciated and Thank You for letting me know basically what I was afraid was going on but that assurance that you all have been doing to the best you could with what you’ve got and sometimes circumstances are just very hard to over come. Thank You again for the quick feedback and I of course would help out if possible. I feel it should be education given out to people as well.

2016-06-18	JP*****	Sure it looks better on iPad but on appleTV it is far from HD. On appleTV the image is blurred and no great details. Live camera is worst. Hope they will keep adding new videos because I have already watched them all many many times, I'm really anxious to fly over other parts of the earth. I love this view of the Earth from above, it really gives us the real perspective of the place we live in. The Earth is small enough to be easily destroyed. Watching the Earth from above make us think about how stupid we are, fighting, creating borders and thinking we are the masters. We can get our sense of ridiculous by simply understanding where we really are in this Universe.
