HOW TO USE LUMILAPSE
Q & A
Compatible iPhone models
iPhone 16, 16 Pro Max, 16 Pro, 15 Pro Max, 15 Pro, 14 Pro Max, 14 Pro, 13 Pro Max, 13 Pro, 12 Pro Max, 12 Pro, 11 Pro Max, 11 Pro.
Why do I need Lumilapse?
Power on, open the Camera app, and Lumilapse repeatedly triggers Night-mode photos until power runs out—no manual tapping.
Low draw (~0.5 W) so it won’t noticeably drain your iPhone when directly connected.
What do I do with the photos?
Turn the sequence into a timelapse or star stack. Great tools: Star Stacker (iPhone) and LRTimelapse (Mac/PC).
Why not just use iPhone timelapse video?
Photos use less storage, export at higher resolution, give RAW-level control, and sip battery compared with straight video.
I’m outside Australia—how do I get delivery?
Add to cart → Checkout → enter your email → in the address section choose your country to load the correct shipping options.
Will Lightning → USB-C power Lumilapse?
No—Lightning doesn’t provide outbound power. Use a battery bank to power Lumilapse when using Lightning-based iPhones.
Warranty and Return Policy
30-DAY QUALITY ASSURANCE
Every Lumilapse is fully tested before shipping. This 30-day period is simply to confirm that your unit arrives in proper working order and free from unlikely manufacturing defects.
If you encounter any issues within this period, please contact us via the Contact page. We’ll arrange a phone or video troubleshooting session to assist.
Proof of purchase is required for any claim.
TROUBLESHOOTING BEFORE RETURNS
Before any return, replacement, or refund is considered, a remote troubleshooting session is required so we can diagnose and resolve issues where possible.
No return or replacement will be authorised without completing this step.
DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL RETURNS AND REPLACEMENTS
If, after troubleshooting, the product is deemed faulty, the item must be returned to us for inspection.
Return postage to us is the buyer’s responsibility (unless required otherwise by local law).
Refunds (where applicable) are issued only after the returned item is received and inspected. If the product is confirmed faulty due to a manufacturing defect, we will repair or replace it at our discretion and cover shipping of the repaired/replacement item back to you.
Refunds or replacements are not available in cases of user mishandling.
INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMS & NON-DELIVERY POLICY
International orders may incur customs fees, import duties, taxes, or paperwork required by your country. These are the buyer’s responsibility.
Customs clearance is managed solely by the destination country and its postal/carrier partners; we cannot intervene or expedite this process.
If a parcel cannot be delivered due to unpaid fees or incomplete forms, it may be returned, delayed, destroyed, or lost while in the destination country’s system. These events are outside our control.
In such cases, we will open an enquiry with our courier (which can take several weeks). Once confirmed, we can offer one of the following:
- Reshipment – We can resend the order once the buyer pays the new shipping cost.
- Product-Only Refund – Issued only after the item is physically returned to us in good, resaleable condition. Original shipping fees are non-refundable.
Please note: returned items are not guaranteed to arrive in resaleable condition. If an item is damaged, destroyed, or not returned, a refund cannot be issued.
EXCLUSIONS FROM WARRANTY
The warranty does not cover issues caused by normal wear and tear, user mishandling (e.g., physical damage, improper use, or unauthorised modifications).
It also does not cover loss, delay, or damage occurring while the item is in the possession of foreign customs authorities, local carriers, or any third-party handlers outside our control (including while held for inspection/clearance).
SHIPPING AND TRACKING
All items are shipped with tracking. Tracking visibility and scan frequency may vary by destination country and carrier.
Once an item enters a foreign postal or customs system, we cannot guarantee further scans or status updates until the local carrier hands over for final delivery.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Warranty period: 30 days from the date of delivery.
Support: Use the Contact page for troubleshooting and support within the warranty period.
