LapseMaker v1.2.0: Introducing LongLapse Projects
We’re excited to announce LapseMaker v1.2.0, introducing one of our biggest updates yet: LongLapse Projects.
Many creative projects can’t be completed in a single sitting. Whether you’re documenting a multi-day 3D print, creating artwork over several evenings, or capturing a renovation from start to finish, LapseMaker now lets you build a single timelapse across multiple recording sessions.
Introducing LongLapse Projects
LongLapse Projects are designed for creators whose work takes time.
Instead of worrying about finishing a timelapse in one recording, simply create a project and keep adding new capture sessions whenever you’re ready.
When your project is complete, LapseMaker stitches every frame together into one beautiful final video.
Capture Today. Continue Tomorrow.
Life gets busy, and creative projects rarely happen in one sitting.
With LongLapse Projects you can:
- Create a project once.
- Capture a recording session.
- Stop whenever you need to.
- Return hours, days or even weeks later.
- Continue adding more frames.
- Render every session into one seamless timelapse.
No complicated workflows. No manually organising photos.
Better Project Organisation
LongLapse Projects give you a clear overview of your progress before rendering.
Each project displays:
- Total frame count
- Number of capture sessions
- Output frame rate
- Estimated final video length
- Storage used
- Session history
Everything you need to keep large projects organised from start to finish.
Flexible Interval Capture
Every project is different.
Choose the capture interval that best suits your workflow, whether you’re documenting rapid progress or something that changes slowly over time.
Perfect for:
- 🖨️ 3D Printing
- 🎨 Art & Illustration
- 🧱 LEGO Builds
- 🌱 Plant Growth
- 🏡 Home Renovations
- 🔨 DIY Projects
- 📸 Photography
- 🎬 Behind-the-Scenes Content
Local-First, Always
As with every LapseMaker feature, LongLapse follows our Local-First philosophy.
- Capture on your schedule: Start and continue projects whenever you like.
- Everything stays organised: Sessions are automatically grouped inside your project.
- 100% Offline Rendering: Your photos never leave your device. No cloud uploads, subscriptions or accounts required.
Also Included in v1.2.0
Alongside LongLapse Projects we’ve also:
- Updated FFmpeg and FFmpegKit third-party license notices.
- Made several stability improvements and minor fixes.
We’re incredibly excited to see what you’ll create with LongLapse Projects, and this is only the beginning. We already have more creator-focused features planned for future updates.
