The most common cause is missing iCloud original photos and videos. Precious needs the full-resolution photo, and iCloud may have only a thumbnail on your device if you have Optimize iPhone Storage turned on.

  1. Open the iOS Photos app and scroll through the date range your time-lapse covers. Let iCloud finish downloading the originals.
  2. Make sure you have at least 2–3× the export size in free storage on your phone.
  3. Close other apps in the background.
  4. Free up storage.
  5. Try a shorter time range or a lower export resolution.
  6. Force-quit Precious and try the export again.

How did we do?

The app is stuck on a screen after I subscribed.

The app won't open or crashes immediately.
