Phases

Phases turns a daily photo habit into a smooth timelapse. You take one photo a day through an in-app camera guide, and the app automatically centres and levels your eyes across every frame so the final video holds perfectly steady — no tripod, no manual alignment.

The alignment runs on TensorFlow.js MediaPipe FaceMesh directly in the browser: it locates the eyes in each photo and stores the anchor points. Frames it can't align automatically get flagged for a quick two-point manual adjustment. The timelapse itself is rendered live on a canvas and encoded to MP4 or GIF with ffmpeg.wasm — everything happens on-device, with no upload or server-side processing.

Photos are stored locally in IndexedDB by default; connecting Google Drive adds backup and cross-device sync. Phases is built on Next.js 15 and React 19, ships as an installable PWA, and packages into an Android app via Capacitor, with iOS on the way.
