About QuickTimeLapse
Turn long videos into 60-second timelapses, ready for Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. Pick 1 to 5 videos. QuickTimeLapse auto-calculates the speed and crunches them into a single 60-second clip. No sign-up, no uploads — your videos never leave your iPhone. — Features — • Up to 5 videos at once, auto-stitched into 60 seconds • Day Counter auto-numbering for daily check-ins (workouts, yoga, cooking, travel) — filenames carry Day 1 / Day 2 … • Custom filename templates — mix date, sequence, and your own text • PHPicker-based selection — no full Photos library access required • Fully on-device — nothing uploaded — Who it's for — Anyone tracking daily workouts, yoga, cooking, or travel vlogs as a timelapse series. Anyone who wants to crunch long footage into Reels, TikTok, or YouTube Shorts. — Pricing — Free to download. The first conversion each day is ad-free; from the second conversion on, you'll see one ad before processing. "Remove Ads" is a one-time purchase that removes all ads forever (no subscription). — Story — I film my workouts every day and wanted to compress them into 60-second timelapses for Instagram. I used to airdrop every clip to my Mac just to make a timelapse in iMovie — the back-and-forth was a hassle. I couldn't find a tool that felt right, so I vibe-coded one myself. Hope it helps if you're in the same boat. — Feedback — Tap Settings → Report a Problem inside the app to write to me directly. I'll do my best to reply.
