BE IN THE PHOTO — NOT BEHIND THE CAMERA.
TimerCam makes hands-free photography simple. Place your iPhone, choose a timer or interval, step into frame, and let TimerCam take care of the rest.
Perfect for group photos, solo travel, selfies, outfit photos, family moments, and content creation. No remote shutter or complicated setup required.
TWO SIMPLE WAYS TO SHOOT
TIMER
Set a 5, 10, 15, or 30-second countdown and take a single photo.
INTERVAL
Take a series of photos automatically at regular intervals. Stay in position and capture more expressions, poses, and moments without walking back to your iPhone after every shot.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Place your iPhone on a stable surface or tripod

I dropped my and it cracked...a lot cracked my front camera so I haven't got it fixed yet but I love taking pictures but more then using arm and selfies so I use the timer app on a table ore something a pose and it turns out great so it comes on handy also in the back camera u know how it's hard sometimes to press the button when the phones on the back camera well this app comes in handy u can push it then. It will count down and look good with out clicking tons of random things so enjoy
Ads on PAID FULL version!

I wish there was a 5 second refund rule on iTunes because I wouldn't need to review this app. I started with the free version and upgraded to full version and the ADS are still popping up on my screen! 😡 It also doesn't have a settings feature (or its well hidden). The features in reality are the following: #1 timer 5-10 seconds #2 front/back screen. Does NOT take multiple pictures. Useless for the purpose I needed it for. If settings were easily accessible and the ability to take multiple pictures were available AND the ads disappeared them is say buy it. If these features are available then perhaps make the settings as such so user can tap "arrow" or "settings" button and view and change settings.
Developer Response
Thank you for your early feedback. TimerCam has changed significantly since 2013. Settings are now easily accessible from the gear button, interval shooting can take multiple photos, and TimerCam Plus is a one-time purchase that removes ads. We’re sorry the version you used did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate the feedback that helped us improve TimerCam.
Actual working pro photog review
Politically incorrect redneck
I am a full time photographer by trade for a living for the past 17 years. New owner of iPhone 4s and was stunned to learn IOs 5 did not have a selftimer. I searched several free and paid apps out there and have to say this one is the simplest and best app for what it does. And it free! Love how you cab use this just like your existing camera app on ios5 it works and looks the same, is super simple and the biggest plus over others it does not alter the photo quality of your images. Great job guys! By Visccara bleep com
Crashes a lot!
Firey432
I remember giving this app a high rating before.. but that was before I noticed its horrible crashing. The app doesn't close, but when you leave the app after taking a picture (with the timing setting), and go back to the app, it would ignore your setting and take a "fake" picture. It counts down and then snaps but no picture is made. It's very annoying to keep closing the app and reopening it. Also, I would not even pay $1 for the paid version. I downloaded a camera app that also has a timer and it was also $1 with a lot other features and much more stable. Sorry, I don't mean to be mean but this app is not very good and isn't going to compete.
• Added an option to mirror photos taken with the front camera when saving
• Updated the flash icon with a sharper, clearer design
• Improved stability and fixed minor issues
• Added support for Simplified and Traditional Chinese
Thank you for using TimerCam.
