## Star Stacker Description
Star Stacker allows you to import a sequence of star photos taken throughout the night and turn them into star trail images or a time lapse video.

After importing you can create the images and/or a time-lapse video with a few different effects.

- Full trails - every star at full brightness
- Faded trails - Stars get brighter as the process runs
- Shooting star - Like faded trails but the last image is brighter than any previous giving a shooting star effect
- Javelin - Both ends of the trail are faded
- Warp mode - zooms into the image stack slowly creating a warped effect. This will also affect the foreground so post processing may be required if the images have the foreground included.

You can also choose to save a video of the time-lapse based on the options used for the image stacking.

Can import images from your photos app. RAW files that have been recently imported from an SD card reader, may take a few minutes before the full resolution files are available.

There are resolution limits depending on the device being used and the memory it has:
- 6gb - 62mp
- 5gb - 62mp
- 4gb - 62mp
- 3gb - 42mp
- 2gb - 30mp

## Star Stacker Reviews in United States

### *---- "Keeps shutting down"
Attempting to use the stacker on an iPhone 13 Pro Max. App continues to shutdown when you begin to stack. Not many options out there for an iPhone to stack.
-- rixdezine, 2026-05-18

### ***** "Easy Stacker of Photos"
Makes stacking of Astrophotography very easy
-- Night Anchorage, 2025-02-01

### *---- "Doesn’t work on my iPhone"
Used this app on others iPhones and worked well. I buy it and it will not upload any of my photos no matter what I do ( well it will upload and work if I limit to only a few photos but what good is that when I have 1000 overnight photos? I have done more than 1000 photos before on another iPhone no problem)…wasted my money. And yes I have full access given to Star Stacker for my photos. So frustrating. I also can’t find support to help.
-- Will F 1733, 2025-01-08

### *---- "Star Stacker not easy to use"
This program is $3.99 and very un-user-friendly.
-- Burnsflyer, 2024-10-13

### ***** "Super fun"
Good for all ages
-- slide scam, 2024-07-11

### ***-- "It needs to be suitable for astrophotography"
The Idea of the app is good but For it to be worth the money and not have things that meet the astrophotographers needs? The app needs manual stacking and editing software for it to be suitable to be used for astrophotography. For both planetary and deep sky objects.

    If you have read this thank you for listening to my thoughts and comments! I would appreciate it if you could implement this. Thank you!
-- The man with many talents, 2024-05-27

### *---- "keeps crashing!"
keeps crashing!  not usable!
-- JPHARDEN, 2024-05-01

### *---- "4 bucks for it not to work"
It crashes the minute I start to ask it to stack. I hate paying for things that don’t work
-- Losof83, 2023-08-12

### ***** "Really cool app"
Super easy to use and love the trail options and the option to create a short star trail video. Overall really happy that I got this app. I am using the GoPro 10 to take the night photos.
-- 2k140, 2023-03-09

### ***** "Just Amazing"
I got this app yesterday when I figured out how to do a star trail. I am so happy I got this! I used Night Lapse Photo from my GoPro and it was the easiest thing to do on my iPad. 
Really enjoyed the photos being stacked and seeing the progression. I am so happy with this app I highly recommend!!
