Built for consistency, not hype
Ghost overlay alignment
See a translucent copy of your last photo in the camera viewfinder. Match the pose, framing, and distance — so your timelapse actually reads as change over time.
Apple Health weight tagging
Photos auto-tag with the weight entry closest to the timestamp. Optional, read-only, and always local — nothing leaves your device.
GIF & MP4 export
Export your timelapse with date, weight, and BMI overlays. Pick crossfade, hard-cut, or a date scrubber. Share to Instagram, TikTok, or just keep it for yourself.
How It Works

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Shifted?
Shifted is a progress-photo timelapse app for iOS. Take a photo each week, line it up with a ghost overlay of your previous shot, and export a data-tagged GIF or video of your transformation.
How does the ghost overlay work?
Before you snap a new photo, Shifted shows a translucent copy of your last shot layered on the camera viewfinder. You can match your pose, framing, and distance to the camera — so week-over-week photos stay consistent, which is what makes a timelapse readable.
What does HealthKit integration do?
With your permission, Shifted reads the weight entry closest to each photo's timestamp from Apple Health and tags it onto the photo. No weight data is written back, and nothing is sent to a server — the tag lives on the photo metadata on your device.
Is my photo data private?
Yes. Photos and weight data stay on your device. Shifted has no server-side photo storage, no accounts, and no ad networks. Learn more
When is Shifted launching?
Shifted is in active development for iOS 17 and later. The App Store listing isn't live yet — this page will update with a download link when it ships.
