But you plaster a bright advertisement over the top of it? I’d pay for the app without the advertising. Don’t see a way to get it without the stupid banner on it. ### 1/5 — ABSOLUTE SHAM *2026-02-18, version 3.5.3* Didn’t work. Got disowned by my whole family at my grandmother’s birthday party. ### 1/5 — Poor app *2026-01-01, version 3.5.3* Downloaded it but cannot find it on the screen at all, only shows up when you open it in the App Store and searches for its name every time you need to use it. Do not recommend. ### 1/5 — Why? *2025-03-02, version 3.5.3* This app is old. There are newer ones out there. ### 5/5 — excellent *2024-08-06, version 3.5.3* i have a phobia of fire, ever since an arsonist burnt down the orphanage i lived in (long story). but i love the ambience of a good birthday candle. this is a perfect alternative. there are many excellent options for candles, and even a chance to add music. i love blowing! ### 1/5 — Pay to get rid of ads *2023-10-11, version 3.5.3* Anyway to get rid of the ads? Ambiance destroyed by them rendering the app next to useless now. Also blow feature no longer works ### 4/5 — Candle *2023-08-20, version 3.5.3* Downloaded this evening as I didn’t have a candle for my wife’s birthday cake! Very amusing but how about you make the torch (light) go out when the candle is brown out. There certainly is an app for everything!! ### 1/5 — When did ads get put in for everyone? *2023-05-16, version 3.5.3* I started using this app years ago and loved it. I even bought the three dollars worth of alternative candles. But it didn’t used to have ads for people who purchased the candles. then for a while, it was crashing, so I took it off, but reinstalled today. Now, despite having paid for the other candles, I am getting ads. ### 3/5 — MY BREATH *2023-04-02, version 3.5.3* I liked the game but I almost died bc of my breath ### 1/5 — ADS *2022-06-02, version 3.5.3* I’ve had this app since it was shown as a tribute for Steve Jobs’ funeral back in 2011. It was great. A couple of years later, ads started to appear. Users caused an uproar, and the ads went away. A few more years pass, but greed has reared its head again. We have ads. Pathetic. ## Frequently asked questions about Candle ### What does the Candle app do? This app provides a realistic virtual candle experience on your iPhone or iPad.
