Months back I recall that viewing timelapses was supported in Handy. I selected a bunch of old timelapses and tried to delete in bulk… and it failed. One update later I lost the ability to see timelapses in Handy - the “MicroSD Card” view just doesn’t list anything but models since then…
Is that intentional? was the feature removed, or did I break some formatting in my sdcard? I’ve tried literally erasing everything in the sdcard and starting over to no avail.
I can still see my time lapse videos listed and play them back - Bambu Handy 2.8.0 on Android 14. I can also confirm that prints from this last week have time lapse entries as expected.
Time lapse videos are only created if you select the box to do so at time of sending the print job. By default it is unchecked I believe.
interesting. I’ve checked that box and can view timelapses from Studio but not from Handy. in the Handy UI it just looks like they disabled the timelapse section; it’s not there at all. Can you show me a screenshot of where you find the timelapse videos?
thanks for confirming that i’m looking in the right place.
I’m running the same phone environment (Android 14, Handy 2.8.0; on a Pixel 6a). It’s crazy that I can’t see the timelapses in Handy at all.
From Handy I see this:
But in Bambu Studio I see this:
I wonder what else might differ between our environments?
so very strange.
The fact that you can access content on the SD from Bambu Studio speaks to there being no issues with the card itself. Have you tried force closing Bambu Handy then clearing the app cache? If no improvement, try clearing all app data?
I have tried both. Just tried them again as I hadn’t done so in a while. Still no joy.
Any luck? I face the exact same issue 
No joy here, but glad to hear I’m not alone. Did your issue begin the same way? (Attempted bulk erase failed)
No, actually just one day wanted to access the timelapse videos from the Bambu Handy app but the option was not there.
I do able to access them from Bambu Studio on my PC thoguh.
I hope we will get some response from Bambu lab developers regarding
I just went to do the same thing to show a friend of mine a time lapse and it looks like the feature is removed from the Handy app. I have an iPhone 14 Pro max on iOS 17.5 beta. This was an extremely helpful feature when posting time lapse videos for social media via phone. Was this removed intentionally or is this a bug? I’ve done a little bit of research on this and it seems as though Bambu has yet to acknowledge it…
Hmm, so not just android but also iOS… what else do we all have in common?
What printer do you have? I’ve got the p1p with the enclosure upgrade to make it like a p1s. I wonder if that is part of the apparent bug?
From Support - “My understanding is that the functionality is still there; however, we have not released the updated version as yet. The timelapse file is too large, and the P1 series download is too slow, resulting in an overall poor experience. We are working on optimising this, and an update will be released when we have it working correctly”
Following up on this… Still no answer from support if this is will be fixed anytime soon.
Any news now? I have the same issue as @bitflung . It would be very handy to have timelapses accessible from handy app.
Bump, at this point are we just getting votes for adding the ability back to the phone app?
I’d love to send time-lapses to people from the phone.
I think we should have a new thread for that. This was initially a troubleshooting thread to figure out whether the lack of video support in handy was an issue with my setup or not. When I started the thread I didn’t realize the fair was removed or that others also were missing it.
I think we should start a new thread as a “feature request” to restore this feature that existed in handy for the P1 series so very briefly.
Agreed. I tried to make a post but cannot. It looks like my “new user” status limits what I may do on the forum.
If someone does create the feature request, be sure to tag it as a “feature request” and put it in the handy software category.
i created a thread here: Restore ability to view videos in Handy from P1 printers
Same for me as well, no videos in Handy but they are in studio
