## Description

Skyflow is a professional-grade tool for creators who want top-quality time-lapse and stop-motion. It lets you adjust playback speed after shooting, supports broad formats (HEIF, ProRes, ProRAW), and provides a full-featured editor from capture to export.

Key features include manual controls for ISO, shutter, EV, white balance, and focus; HDR/Apple Log capture; long-exposure modes; 8K export; and a robust editor with speed ramping, color adjustments, cropping, and music. The free version allows unlimited shooting but exports are limited to 540p with a watermark; an in-app upgrade removes limits.

## Review summary

Users praise Skyflow as a powerful, easy-to-use timelapse app with rich, configurable controls and convenient in-app export to Photos, plus a favorable one-time purchase price. However, recurring issues include iOS 18+ compatibility and export/save failures, major changes behind paywalls (loss of 1080 MOV and other features), and perceived lack of ongoing updates. Overall value is recognized, but stability and ongoing support are major concerns.

### Pros

- Easy to use with a simple, well-designed interface
- Rich, time-lapse specific feature set with in-app export to Photos and video generation
- One-time purchase model with good value (no ongoing subscription)
- Option to save frames as JPEGs and export to Photos
- Developer responsiveness in addressing issues (positive support experience)

### Cons

- iOS 18+ compatibility issues leading to export failures and app instability (cannot export to Photos, sessions errors)
- Major changes behind paywalls or removal of previously standard features (e.g., 1080 MOV format) causing perceived abandonment
- Long gaps without updates / maintenance leading to credibility concerns (appears abandoned by some users)
- Privacy/permission friction around accessing the Photos library (persistent requests, save-to-Photos failures)
- Reports of freezing or instability after updates on certain devices, impacting usability
