LAPSE is an iPhone app for lining up photos taken over time, so gradual changes are easier to compare.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-24 issue.
For
People documenting gradual visual change over time
Worth noticing
Missed check-ins do not reset a journey; imported photos are ordered by their capture dates.

Field notes

The page says existing photos can be imported in batches; LAPSE reads their capture dates and starts the timeline at the oldest image. For new check-ins, a chosen reference frame guides matching, with phone tilt used as an angle cue; the page says this analysis runs on-device. One journey is described as free, while additional journeys and video export require a subscription or one-time unlock.
