Your camera roll already holds a life in fragments: the people you love, the trips you still talk about, and all the versions of you that got you here.

Lapse turns separate photos — or one favorite video — into a face-aligned film, made privately on your phone and ready to replay or share.

MAKE SOMETHING THAT MATTERS
• Watch your child grow, month by month or year by year
• Follow a pregnancy, fitness journey, new look, or changing season
• Relive a favorite trip or gather birthdays and ordinary days into one story
• Pull the moments that matter from a favorite video

KEEP THE STORY CENTERED
Choose photos through your device's picker or from Google Photos, take a new picture, or start with one favorite video. Pick the person your story follows. Lapse uses on-device AI to align the face across your photos.

Review uncertain frames, reorder a moment, or leave a photo out. Side profiles, occlusions, and extreme angles can need a quick check, so you always have the final say.

FOUR WAYS TO MAKE IT MOVE
• Face Story: isolate the face and soften the background, with aligned dissolves and adjustable isolation strength.
• Photo Stack: layer your moments like prints, keeping the chosen face centered as each photo settles.
• Film Roll: move through a strip of photos with film-style dates and optional effects.
• Classic: a simple, face-aligned photo timelapse.

Compare styles with same-photo examples before choosing your favorite.

TELL THE STORY YOUR WAY
Add chapter titles, choose how long they appear, and place them above or below the picture. Pick from four fonts and four text backgrounds. Drag text and music blocks on the synchronized timeline to put them where you want them.

Choose a pace preset, adjust film length, and give each moment time to land. Show photo dates, including dates on the lip of Photo Stack prints. In Film Roll, tap to toggle flicker, motion blur, or face focus; hold a control to tune its strength.

TURN ONE VIDEO INTO A LAPSE
Choose a video from 2 seconds to 10 minutes, up to 750 MB and 4K. Select a 2–60 second section and Lapse samples up to 60 useful moments of your chosen person. Sound is not imported; add your own music afterward.

Export at 480p, 720p, or 1080p in square, portrait, or landscape. Share straight from the app.

MADE PRIVATELY ON YOUR PHONE
Selected photo and video processing happens on your device. Lapse does not upload that media to its servers. No Lapse account is required.

LAPSE PRO
New installs include starter export tokens. Free exports use tokens and include a Lapse watermark by default. Go Pro for unlimited projects, photos, and exports; films longer than 60 seconds without the old three-minute cap; five additional on-device soundtracks; and the option to turn off the watermark without tokens. Choose monthly, yearly, or a one-time lifetime purchase. Prefer pay-as-you-go? Add export tokens when you need them. Film length still depends on your device's storage and capabilities.

Built by an indie dev. No ads. Your photos. Your story.
