## What is Plasma!?

Plasma! is like a Lava Lamp in your pocket! Run the app, then place your iPhone or iPad upright on the table. Or just hold it in your hand.  Watch as the colorful blobs smoothly morph around the screen.

Enjoy the blue-green color palette for free. Then after a one-time purchase, you may choose from 5 different color palettes, or "Cycle All" to rotate amongst them all.  If running on an Apple Watch, simply tap on the screen until you find your favorite color.

Plasma! will keep going when you're away, so remember to plug in your device to avoid draining the battery.

Hope you enjoy it!

### 5/5 — The color of fun

*2026-02-20*

Adds a new level of enjoyment to using your iPhone

### 5/5 — Clean screen ghost 👻

*2023-11-27*

Some screens @burn in@ where pixels are in for extended times or repeated regularly.  Running this appears to reduce screen spots created by “burn in”.

### 1/5 — NO

WHAT DO YOU DO ITS SOOOO BORING

### 5/5 — Nice App

*2022-12-25*

Very nice beautifully designed app. Very colorful. I have the PAID version on my iPhone 13 Pro and iPad Pro. Looks great. Please add more colors and geometric shapes. Thanks

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2022-07-30*

It’s so fun and cool not only is it cool but its a great night light

### 1/5 — Wow

*2022-03-08*

Floating Color’s that are not touch reactive or do anything. But wait if you spend more, you can have DIFFERENT color options… all four of them.

### 3/5 — Frame rate to slow

*2020-12-28*

I run this on a brand new iPad Air (4th Gen) and it’s nice, but the frame rate is too slow and thus jerky. You get 5 stars when the update is smoother.

### 5/5 — L

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2020-08-30*

I was looking for an app that would work well as a nightlight and the actual nightlight apps I found are not very good.  Then I found Plasma.  Not only is it cool to look at but it does work great as a nightlight on my bedside table.  I upgraded to get the other color combos and if more combos are released I would probably buy those too.

### 1/5 — Lousy.

*2020-03-08*

This is a LOUSY APP!
