🚀 Getting Started

First Time Setup

When you first open ezTimelapse, you'll be asked to grant access to your Photos library. This is required so the app can read your videos and save the finished timelapses.

Selecting a Video

Tap "Select Video" and choose any video from your library. Videos stored in iCloud will download automatically with progress shown.

Choosing Duration

Select "Recommended" for automatic optimal duration, or choose 10, 20, 30, or 60 seconds for specific lengths.

Creating Your Timelapse

Tap "Create Timelapse" and wait for processing. The screen will stay on during this time. Your timelapse will be saved automatically to Photos.

🔧 Troubleshooting

App won't access my videos

Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Photos > ezTimelapse and ensure access is set to "Full Access" or "Add Photos Only" at minimum.

Processing seems slow

4K videos and longer videos take more time to process. This is normal. Processing a 5-minute 4K video may take 30-60 seconds.

Video from iCloud is slow to load

Large videos stored in iCloud need to download first. The app shows download progress. Ensure you have a stable internet connection.

App crashed or froze

Force close the app and reopen it. If the issue persists, try restarting your device. Ensure you have enough free storage space.

Timelapse not saved

Check that ezTimelapse has permission to save photos. Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Photos > ezTimelapse.

Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 24, 2026

🔒 Our Commitment

ezTimelapse does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. Your privacy is our priority, and we've designed the app to work entirely on your device.

1. Information We Collect

We collect no information. ezTimelapse does not:

  • Require account creation or registration
  • Collect personal information
  • Track your usage or behavior
  • Use analytics services
  • Collect device identifiers
  • Access your location
  • Connect to the internet during video processing

2. How the App Works

ezTimelapse processes videos entirely on your device:

  • Video Access: The app reads videos you select from your Photos library. This access is granted through Apple's PhotosPicker and requires your explicit permission.
  • Processing: All video processing (frame extraction, timelapse creation, encoding) happens locally on your iPhone or iPad. No data is sent to external servers.
  • Saving: Finished timelapses are saved directly to your Photos library on your device.

3. Permissions Required

ezTimelapse requests the following permissions:

  • Photos Library (Read): To allow you to select source videos for timelapse conversion.
  • Photos Library (Add Only): To save your finished timelapse videos to your Photos library.

These permissions are used solely for the app's core functionality. No other permissions are requested or required.

4. Data Sharing

We do not share any data with third parties. Since we don't collect any data, there is nothing to share. Your videos remain on your device at all times.

5. Third-Party Services

ezTimelapse does not integrate with any third-party services, analytics platforms, advertising networks, or cloud services. The app operates completely independently.

6. Data Security

Because all processing occurs on your device and no data is transmitted externally, your videos and personal information remain protected by your device's built-in security features, including:

  • Device encryption
  • Face ID / Touch ID protection
  • iOS sandboxing

7. Children's Privacy

ezTimelapse is suitable for users of all ages and does not collect any personal information from anyone, including children under 13. No account creation is required, and no personal data is gathered.

8. Changes to This Policy

If we make changes to this Privacy Policy, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.

10. Your Rights

Since ezTimelapse does not collect any personal data, there is no personal data to access, modify, or delete. You can revoke the app's access to your Photos library at any time through your device's Settings app.
