Long Exposure on Sony A5000 #16

Thank you for the amazing app! I have been using this app since the last 3 months on my A5000 and have been able to capture some amazing time lapses with it. Unfortunately, one issue I have been facing with it is that whenever I try to set an exposure time of 1 second or higher, irrespective of how long the interval between shots is, the app just crashes and the camera is back to the usual shooting menu. I have been unable to find other posts regarding this issue. Is this usual, or is this happening only for me? What solution would you suggest in that case? Thanks again!

I have managed to solve this. Weirdly enough, the app crashes for long exposures only when silent shutter option is enabled. A5000 doesn't support silent shutter anyway, so I have just disabled the option and now it works. Thanks!
