Questions
Is there a free alternative to 1 Second Everyday?
One Second Diary is free and open source on Android. CocoCut and Leap Second are free to start, with paid upgrades.
Is there an option that uses photos instead of video?
viva works from photos and one-line notes and shows the year as an embroidered hoop. Leap Second also mixes photos into its video montages.
