About Lapse

Lapse is a mobile application that aims to bring back the experience of using a disposable camera in a digital format. Users can capture 36 photos on a "roll" and have to wait for them to be "developed" at a surprise time, after which they can be shared with a private group of friends.

The company operates in the social media and photo-sharing market, targeting users who are looking for a more authentic and less curated social media experience. The business model is likely based on a freemium model, where the core functionality is free, with potential for premium features or in-app purchases in the future.
