Skyflow – Time-lapse Camera

Skyflow has unlocked cloud timelapses for me and ignited my fascination and joy for clouds! I can confidently rely on this app when I leave my phone for several hours (building health habits) and come back to an incredible video. I can’t recommend this app enough! My one wish is to add more zoom levels. My view in the city can’t use 1x without showing other buildings but I’m losing too much of the sky with 5x. The high quality detail captured in a smaller 5x window of the sky has still been more than enough for me to fall in love with this app

Skyflow is an excellent time lapse video app which I've been using for several years on my previous iPhones & currently on my iPhone 14 Pro (which Skyflow fully supports). Skyflow has a wide variety of features but is also straightforward enough for new users. Many other time lapse video apps require the user to export all the still photos to another app to combine them into a video but Skyflow very conveniently does that within the app & then exports the resulting time lapse video, one option of which is to the Photos app. One particularly helpful feature is the optional on-screen horizontal level which I was very pleased to recently discover will also work just fine when making a vertical time lapse video. Skyflow is an excellent time lapse video that I definitely recommend. Request to developer: it would be great if you could extend Skyflow's user interface to make it easier to select the various shooting parameters prior to making a vertical time lapse video.

It’s great at taking Timelapse so I highly recommend it but I give it 4/5 stars because of its file handling system. This app can generate both huge video files and thousands of raw image files so the inconsistency of the file handling interface and the inability of its image to be handled in the iOS Storage app make it hard to work with. A popup that says “Where are my files?” leads to an Apple website explanation of the iCloud but sometimes files are kept internally, sometimes on the phone’s iCloud account, and sometimes on the camera roll, so the “Where are my files?” popup should say where the software actually sent it. A tutorial or documentation on how to adjust thousands of Raw files in post would be helpful for using that feature. Again: 5 stars for the time lapse feature and it handles day to night sunset time lapses well. I wish there was a way to ramp the shutter speed but at least it can adjust exposure over time or lock exposure if desired.
