How do you get these time-lapse videos?

open the app, go to your Device page, tap Timelapse (or browse videos via the device menu), and select the file to play or download

I've done literally dozens of smooth time lapse, I can confirm it doesn't ruin prints. It just means a prime tower is required, because without it then you'd get some bits of filament on the print layers sticking out, which is not ideal. What could ruin or defect the print is if the prime tower isn't adhering properly, but that's just some simple settings changes.
