New here? Download Actually now and Pro is yours free, for life. Guess how long a task will take, hit start, and watch a timelapse of you actually doing it.
Built by Michelle, solo founder. Actually helps you find out, one timed session at a time.
The dread is almost always bigger than the task.
Here's how it works: name the task you've been avoiding, guess how long it'll take, then hit start. Actually films you doing it and builds a shareable timelapse comparing your guess to the real time. Most people find out the thing they dreaded for days takes twelve minutes.
No shame, no guilt trips, no hustle-culture noise. Just a gentle nudge and a little proof that you can, in fact, do the thing.
One App Store reviewer put it this way: "I love how I can predict how long it will take and then actually find out the real time it took." — DavidProductTester, App Store review

Ratings & Reviews
Your timelapses got a lot more reliable, plus a bunch of things you asked for.
- Your timelapse is safer: if you leave mid-filming, the clock and camera pause until you're back, and footage is saved as you go, so nothing is lost if your phone closes the app.
- Videos that hit a snag are kept and retried, with a "Try again" button if needed.
- Clearer text in your finished video: full task names, the whole guess-vs-actual line, and bigger, easier-to-read cards that stay clear of TikTok and Instagram buttons.
- Steps you only timed now get their own card in the film.
- A big "You guessed / It actually took" comparison under every timelapse.
- Watch any timelapse full screen.
- A new walkthrough when you first open the app.
- Easier-to-find Edit button and clearer picture buttons.
- Pressed stop too soon? Pick the same step back up right where you left off.
- Skip any step in a routine, right from the photo screen or the step-done card.
