it on a stable surface where it won’t wobble or shake. Use TimeWarp 2.0

NIGHT LAPSE INTERVAL
Choose how often your GoPro snaps a shot in Night Lapse mode. Night
Lapse intervals are Auto; 4, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 30 seconds; and 1, 2, 5, 30,
and 60 minutes.
Auto (default) syncs the Interval with the Shutter setting. If the shutter
speed is set to 10 seconds and the Interval is set to Auto, your camera will
take a shot every 10 seconds.
Interval
Examples
Auto
Great for all exposures (captures as quickly as
possible depending on the Shutter setting).
4–5 seconds
Evening city scene, street lighting, or scenes
with movement.
10–15 seconds
Dim lighting with slow scene changes, such as
night clouds with a bright moon.
20–30 seconds
Very low light or very slow scene changes,
like stars with minimal ambient or street light.
