One of SpotCam's amazing cloud services is that you can make a film by exporting the video footage you like and share on YouTube or download to your hard drive, it's all FREE! (Please note that before creating a time-lapse video, make sure you have activated the cloud recording feature and have recorded files available for capture.)
Operating with the Mobile App
Time-lapse video capture operations can be performed using the mobile app, whether you are using an Android or iOS smartphone or tablet. The following is an example guide using a smartphone.

here if you want to know how to make normal video.
3. Next, you will see the options to make a time-lapse video from all recorded footage or from specified recording segments. Please select the time period you want to make a time-lapse video from and then set the interval for photo-taking of the time-lapse video. Note that the maximum interval for each video segment is 60 minutes. You will see an estimated video length after you complete the settings.
4. After completing the settings, press the "Save" button as shown in the picture. Your video will start processing and appear in your "My Film" page in a short while, as shown in the image below.
