Great way to pass time on the U-bahn!

### 5/5 — Relaxing and Creative

*2020-12-18, version 2.1.3*

Beautiful, creative and fun! I find it to be very calming. It’s a great way to take a break from a stressful day and reset. Love!

### 5/5 — Great app, so addictive!

*2020-11-27, version 2.1.3*

My kids love this app! They are 5 years old and almost 2 years old - both find it super calming to sit and play. My 5 year old says “triple thumbs up”!

### 5/5 — Maybe the Best Phone Fidget

*2020-09-22, version 2.1.2*

I love this. It’s gorgeous, fun, and in my personal opinion, it’s the best Fidget Toy for the phone. Just terrific!

### 1/5 — If your phone is old, don’t bother.

*2020-09-08, version 2.1.1*

I have an iPhone 6 running iOS 12. This app is supposedly compatible, but the frame rate extremely choppy to the point where it’s unenjoyable. Either fix that, or don’t say this is compatible with older phones.

**Developer response:** Hi AuroraNebula –
 
I'm sorry your first experience with FiDGET LiGHTS was such a dud, but the good news is the next update 2.1.2 (in approval right now) addresses that horrific lag... once again, so sorry. The lag only shows up on the devices themselves and not the development tools, and as a solo up-incoming developer, resources are limited. So I'm trying to get a hold of some older phones, but I'm also looking for beta testers for future updates and releases if you have any interest. 

Thanks for taking the time to download FiDGET LiGHTS and I hope you'll give it another try!

### 5/5 — Super fun!

*2020-08-23, version 2.1.1*

Very cool app for you digital doodlers!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2020-08-14, version 2.1.1*

It’s a great way to pass time and being able to create your own boards allows your creativity to soar. Love this app so much!

### 5/5 — Easy and fast

*2020-08-13, version 2.1.1*

I have used relaxation apps before and so many of them are slow and hard to navigate. This app is snappy! All you motions are registered and it’s very easy to navigate and customize your colors. This app is AMAZING. I highly recommend downloading.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2020-08-12, version 2.1.1*

I am the ultimate fidgeter so having an app to channel my fidgeting energy is awesome. It’s so pretty!
