It works well on iPhone, but it seems like it doesn’t support the newer iPad. Could you please update the app for iPad M2? 😄 ### 3/5 — Didn’t seem to work *2024-05-13, version 1.5* Nothing happened on my iPhone XR just a circle that changed colours when you played with it using mic or built in mp3 player ### 4/5 — Great app been using it for a couple of years *2023-12-22, version 1.5* It’s a great app and easy to use but just a couple adjustments can make it 5 star. First it can’t be used on landscape format. The light won’t work when you rotate the phone. And the other thing is it seems like the app doesn’t use the flashlight to its maximum brightness and the flashlight light is too low. Thanks again for the app, hopefully we get a new update to make the app greater than before. ### 4/5 — Flash brightness control please!! *2023-12-03, version 1.5* Please please update it to increase the flash brightness!! ### 4/5 — Тусклый фонарик *2023-08-22, version 1.5* Это единственное приложение которое хорошо подстраивается под бит но фонарик очень тусклый, не знаю что делать( ### 4/5 — Developer I need your help *2022-08-08, version 1.5* I have no idea how to turn it on! ### 4/5 — Cool app *2021-03-10, version 1.2* So I have iOS and sometimes it doesn’t flash the Color. So for this 4 stars ### 4/5 — Always on would be a bonus. *2019-06-09, version 1.2* I had hoped that this app would stay on when I switched apps. I am a walker and want a strobe on my phone so when I walk at dusk I can use this app as my warning light. But when I move between apps, it doesn’t stay on. The always on feature be a plus for this app. ### 2/5 — Does not work when you exit the app *2018-09-28, version 1.2* It doesn’t light up when you exit the app while the music is playing ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Heading is a lie *2025-08-27, version 1.5* It’s a do not trust it. it it’s a scam it doesn’t work and is a lie ### 1/5 — fix plz yay *2025-01-26, version 1.5* it used to work completely fine but it no longer works ### 1/5 — does not work *2025-01-13, version 1.5* spotify will not play when this app is open ### 1/5 — İos 18.1 çalışmıyor *2024-09-30, version 1.5* 2 yıldır destek verilmiyor ### 1/5 — Basura *2022-02-17, version 1.4* App cuts peak volume in half. Volume restored after exiting app. App cannot run in background. ### 1/5 — Don’t get this *2022-01-12, version 1.2* It’s not intuitive. Still trying to figure out how to use it. If it doesn’t make sense in a few more minutes it’s getting deleted and I’ll try another one. Engineers?!! Do you actually use the crap you design?! Bigger question... do you have others use the crap you design?!! This app says “No, we’ve not really had it tested by having anyone, who hasn’t been involved in designing it, try to use it.” Crap!!! ### 1/5 — Volume of the music goes very low when in app *2021-10-18, version 1.2* The volume suddenly gets turned down when in the app with no way to turn it back up (peak volume is reduced) Also, app doesn’t work when switching between apps ### 1/5 — Смысла в ней н0ль в степени нуль. Так как работает только с встроенной письчялкой… *2020-12-14, version 1.2* тчк.дядяфёдР ### 2/5 — iOS 18 not working *2024-10-12, version 1.5* iOS 18 not working ### 2/5 — No *2020-03-30, version 1.2* It works well but I’m rating it bad because the strobe just started. There was no way to stop it. There was not sound it was just going on it’s on, I think you should update it to add an off switch option to the strobe so then if someone wants to turn it off they can. I’ll give better rating if that happens but until then sorry. Not gonna happen. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome app ! *2023-01-01, version 1.5* This app is beautiful.
