Intervalometer is an automation app for time-lapse to trigger camera shutter in any camera apps with a user-configured time interval.
Normal time-lapse mode in most smartphones only allows auto exposure without additional controls on exposure settings and RAW format.
Intervalometer works with any camera modes in any camera apps including light-painting mode, HDR, night mode, manual mode, telephoto or ultra-wide angle mode to capture a series of time-lapse image frames.
This app works like an actual intervalometer for smartphones, it automates camera shutter triggering using AccessibilityService API and it works on any camera app for Android 7 and above.
It can also be used with dedicated camera's remote apps from Canon, Sony, Nikon and etc to trigger the shutter button in the camera's remote app, this acts as an actual intervalometer for dedicated cameras too.
With intervalometer and its flexibility to control time-lapse configurations, the following types of time-lapse are possible.
1. Low light time-lapse
2. Long exposure time-lapse
3. HDR time-lapse
4. Milky Way time-lapse / Star Trails time-lapse
5. Holy Grail of time-lapse (Day to night time-lapse)
6. Ultra wide angle time-lapse
7. Light painting time-lapse

Other than time-lapse, it can also be used to capture frames for image stacking in post-process (on other apps) to achieve higher quality images and etc.
1. Image stacking
2. Star trails
3. Lightning stacking

Features
- Full control on time-lapse configuration (delay timer, interval time, number of shots)
- Infinite mode
- Bulb mode
- Works with Any camera app (shutter button position can be reconfigured)

Note: For Huawei and Xiaomi devices, please try to restart your device if it doesn't work or touch input can't be triggered.

Disclaimer: Intervalometer only automates photo taking process, it is neither a camera app nor image processing app.

I use this app to make time-lapses for the purpose of documenting my creative process. Many times, when this app is supposed to be capturing photos in my phone's camera app, I'll return to my phone after hours of painting to see the camera app no longer active. When this happens, the menu section of Intervalometer will be open. This is highly problematic because there is no indication when and if the app will crash back to the main screen. In the end I often lose hours of work.

Very disappointed, to say the least. Not once have I been able to actually see or save any photos supposedly captured over the several nights I've attempted to use it for astrophotography on my Pixel 7 Pro. I have the paid version and the most recent version of app, so that makes the disappointment hit even harder. Literally left with a dud product, 6+ hours of what could've been spectacular imagery just wasted, and less change in my wallet for it all. 1/5 is lowest I can rate; 0 fits it better.

I tried the app with just 2 images set. That was fine. I then increased the images to 10. Only 5 were taken. Wherever the number was set the images fell short. I then paid £1.69 for extended features. This did not make any difference to the images problem. I have sent an email to the author about the problem a few days ago. No response.

This does work but requires substantial security access to your phone. Permissions include accessibility (as the app works as an overlay). To me, this should be flagged and explained in the description, but it's not. There were no reviews visible to me so I thought I would add one here. I had been using Lapse It Pro, but that has been abandoned.

Works great on my Galaxy S21 Ultra. Make sure your interval is longer than your shutter speed (i.e. if your exposure time is 10 seconds make your interval 12 seconds. It will actually be 2 seconds not 12). Another reviewer stated half the shots weren't triggering and my guess is that's why. The app doesn't account for exposure time and having your interval set longer remedies this. It to doesn't save shutter location but it's a one click affair, hardly an issue.

Extremely annoying that after paying for the app, I then had to make another payment before I could use it. I think it was the interval setting, can't remember. Otherwise the app seems to work well, but longer evaluation needed. Unfortunately, it also interferes with Google Chrome. Usually Chrome allows me to see all my tabs as a visual display. With this app installed they appear as a list of links, and the back button doesn't work. This meant I had to uninstall the app, which I'd already paid

Now working. Changed review from 1 star to 5. Tried setting interval time more than exposure time it worked. If u want images with 8 seconds exposure then set 8 seconds exposure in camera app and set 9 (or more) second interval in Intervalometer. It works. It captures images with 8 second exposure and wait for 1 second (9-8) for next image. Thanks.

I get everything set and it works at first, it will take like 30 photos in a row that are normal, but then all the sudden every photo will be black with lines through it like a broken tv screen or something. I've done 3 different time lapses and it has done this mid shoot all three times. Which was dissapointing cuz I left my phone for hours thinking i was getting good photos just to find out 90% of the photos taken are useless.
