timeLAPSE
macOS / Economie et entreprise
What have you done on my Mac?
timeLAPSE will take a silent screenshot of your Mac's desktop automatically and periodically at an interval according to your setup, from between 1 second to 24 hours. All captured screenshots will be saved in a folder of your choosing. Then, these captured screenshots can be linked and compiled into a continuously played time-lapse video at any time.
timeLAPSE is ideal for computer security and educational usage as a child computer behavior monitor, it's also very useful for medical care professionals, law enforcement personnel, journalist, and researchers, to act as a computer event tracking and analyzing app.
