Stopping timelapse prematurely, watching timelapse before it is finished, or making a timelapse from past recordings

[nwitham]

I’d love if your timelapse feature was more flexible and forgiving.
The way it works right now if you cancel it early nothing exports or the incorrect thing exports
Also it would be cool to be able to make a timelapse from past recordings stored on the SD card

When I reached out to support the chat bot said “If you cancel a timelapse after it’s started, any portion already recorded will be available in your Album.” Unfortunately, this simply isn’t true. However, the capturesstill exists on the SD card but the time lapse itself isn’t always available in the app.

I typically max out the time of the timelapse to around 30 days to watch my plants grow in my garden, so I believe the error is caused by large files or long durations.

Create timelapse from previously recorded video

I’d like the ability to make a timelapse of video that is already recorded (for those of use using continuous recording). For instance I would want to be able to set a start and end time and export a timelapse of that section.
