Syrp has released the app for the Genie Mini in advance of its upcoming launch. The Syrp Genie App is now available on iTunes, and an Android version is coming soon.

The upcoming Genie Mini from Syrp looks to be an interesting tool for timelapse and motion control filmmaking. While the Genie Mini isn’t yet available, you can now download and test out the Syrp Genie App. It’s currently only available on iTunes, however the android version is coming soon.

You can enter custom settings for both time-lapse and motion control. But the app also includes some handy presets so you can quickly start filming. The hardware unit is available for pre-order and the app is available for free, so if you’d like to check it out you can download it from iTunes.
