LapseMaker v1.0.2: The Stop-Motion Revolution
We’re thrilled to announce LapseMaker v1.0.2, a massive update that expands the app’s capabilities beyond timelapses. This version introduces the highly requested Stop-Motion Lab, turning your Android device into a professional-grade animation studio.
The All-New Stop-Motion Lab
Creativity requires precision. Our new dedicated Stop-Motion Lab is built to give you total control over every frame.
Onion Skinning
The cornerstone of professional stop-motion. LapseMaker now allows you to see a translucent overlay of your previous frame while lining up the next one. This ensures smooth transitions and helps you maintain consistent character or object placement.
Lock Focus and Exposure
One of the biggest challenges in mobile animation is “flicker” caused by the camera’s auto-adjustments. Version 1.0.2 allows you to Lock Focus and Exposure, eliminating light shifts and ensuring a consistent look across your entire sequence.
Improved Workflow & Guidance
We want you to spend more time creating and less time troubleshooting.
- Intuitive Tutorial System: A new guided onboarding experience walks you through the new tools, ensuring you can hit the ground running.
- Improved File Management: We’ve overhauled how projects are stored and accessed, making it easier to manage large libraries of frames.
- Enhanced Stability: Significant under-the-hood performance tweaks ensure the app remains responsive, even during heavy processing tasks.
Local-First, Always
As always, LapseMaker operates on our “Local-First” philosophy.
- Pick up where you left off: Projects are saved automatically.
- Quick Previews: Render low-res drafts instantly to check your animation flow.
- On-Device Processing: No cloud, no data harvesting, no internet required. Your art stays on your device.
Laboratory Sustenance
LapseMaker is 100% free and ad-free. If the new Stop-Motion Lab helps your creative process, consider supporting our mission to build better tools.
