3/5Ehhh
Um this app is a really good app but it's not the best it can be. You see, I think that if you have 30 seconds That's to much unless it takes you 30 seconds at the most to take a photo. Which is somewhat unreasonable, but if someone can explain to me why 30 seconds is so short and have a good reason then I would be impressed. Y'all are saying that 30 seconds is to little but it's not. ALSO!! I can never position it correctly it's partly my fault but really if it came with instructions like, put your device somewhere there's good lighting or something like that then I would raise it to a 4 MAYBE 5

5/5Great from the get go!
I read an article about a great camera timer app called Auto Camera. When I got home and loaded it my joy turn to disappointment! It caused my phone to lock up, and you get adds from stores you do not want. So when I found this app and loaded it and it work great from the start I was very happy. Kudos Redseven Apps for this fine working app for my iPhone 4S.

5/5Actual working pro photog review
I am a full time photographer by trade for a living for the past 17 years. New owner of iPhone 4s and was stunned to learn IOs 5 did not have a selftimer. I searched several free and paid apps out there and have to say this one is the simplest and best app for what it does. And it free! Love how you cab use this just like your existing camera app on ios5 it works and looks the same, is super simple and the biggest plus over others it does not alter the photo quality of your images. Great job guys! By Visccara bleep com

4/5Does what it says!
Finally an app that just does what I'm looking for. Nothing fancy, just the basic timer for photos I was looking for. No annoying ads that pop up when you're using it. I'm able to take pictures of myself doing things without having to get someone to take it for me and I can take pictures with people and be in them. What a concept! I would have given this app 5 stars if it had something extra I wasn't expecting. ("wasn't expecting" in a good way of course) worth the download folks!

3/5Good free self-timer, but . . . .
This app makes taking self-timer photos easy. Unfortunately if you use it while traveling, most of the EXIF data never makes it into the iPhone camera roll when you save the pic. If you take travel or vacation photos, no GPS data is stored with the picture, so the "Places" function won't show you where the photo was taken. Also none of the camera shutter and aperture settings come through. I use the location data all the time, so I am checking out some other self-timers.
