This was THE PARTY TRICK of nyc. People were impressed by this! Now there’s a usage fee every time. Keep it invite only, but charge a subscription all access fee and then have fundraiser events. It sucks now, and I rarely use it except as an expensive party trick ### 3/5 — Please invite me *2025-03-29, version 2.1.1* I am in nyc and live in Chicago and would love to show it off to family and friends. ### 2/5 — The colors have disappeared *2024-05-29* The app shows that there is an unscheduled member’s night - but there is only a button for yellow, and this does not change the spire at all. Has Spireworks lost its rights to light up the spires? ### 2/5 — A one-time donation scheme would be better *2021-10-08, version 1.3.4* Barely use this app anymore. A one-time donation would be more effective and would likely result in a greater total amount donated. ### 5/5 — Can Someone send me an Invite? *2020-01-27, version 1.3.2* I really want a invite just to flex on my friends, that’s it. ### 5/5 — Cool app *2020-01-21, version 1.3.1* Cool app but I’ve never gotten to switch the lights but I’m selling invites for 50$ each I have 3 of them ### 5/5 — Send me an inv!!! *2020-01-20, version 1.3.1* Super dope someone invite me tho pls ### 5/5 — CEO of nyc *2020-01-14, version 1.3.1* no cap this is lit ### 5/5 — Can someone send me an invite *2020-01-01, version 1.1.3* Can someone please send me an invite ### 5/5 — Invite *2019-09-25, version 1.1.3* Could someone send me an invite pls ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-07-05, version 2.3.16* $10 for 2 damn minutes not worth it! ### 1/5 — Not sure it works *2025-09-19, version 2.3.9* Paid the $10 for the two minutes, and my efforts didn’t seem to make any difference in the lights on the building. ### 1/5 — F invite! *2024-11-14, version 2.0.19* F invite! ### 1/5 — Another Bastion of Privilege *2024-11-10, version 1.8.1* For those who stand on New Yorkers, not with them ### 1/5 — Looks like a scam *2023-06-12, version 1.4.2* It's invite only access, not sure what the point is. FYI I requested access permissions almost 2 years ago, still no access to it. Possibly a scam to gather traffic to the app. ### 1/5 — Invite only app *2022-05-30, version 1.4.2* What’s the point of having the public download the app if it’s invite only?! I’ve donated and made many request for access but to no avail. It’s just a waste of memory consumption just having the app but with no access! This app caters to the rich and shareholders and CEOs. Not worth it, if it’s not available to the general public! ### 1/5 — Donation amount is ridiculous *2021-11-20, version 1.3.4* Used to use this app all the time. Now it requires a $10 donation or something for a short 3 min session. Hard pass. I echo another poster that I'd happily pay a larger one time amount for unlimited access or even consider a monthly donation, but the current model makes no sense. ### 1/5 — Absolutely Asinine! *2020-08-02, version 1.3.3* I’ve been a user of Spireworks for just over 5 years, back when it was browser base. I stopped using it, because it started getting SUPER buggy. I was happy to see that they created an app. I downloaded it, signed in, saw the donation requirement and thought “ok, no problem. It’s for a good cause.” I donated and after the 2 minute session the app required ANOTHER DONATION!!! $10 for 2 minutes!! I was at least expecting to have access for the night or AT LEAST a half hour!! This is VERY unreasonable!!! And to top it off, it didn’t even give me access for the full 2 minutes!!! Spireworks, please change this! ### 1/5 — Great app Poor Implementation *2020-02-29, version 1.3.2* This app is great. The one thing that annoys me is the fact that you have to donate every single time you enter. I think it should be a one time donation or something. I donated and the app didn’t work so I find no point in this if it fails. ### 1/5 — Great app love to use it but not working *2019-11-05, version 1.1.3* No longer works just spinning on apple’s latest os ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Interesting *2025-02-06, version 2.1.1* Hi I like this app but can I get access to Al building also how do you get access ### 5/5 — Update *2024-11-16, version 2.0.19* The updates to the app seem awesome! ### 5/5 — Invite *2024-11-11, version 1.8.1* I’m interested in getting an invitation to the Spireworks app. I would be very grateful if someone could send me the link to join and experience changing the building lights in New York. •Instagram: jon.lxv1 ### 5/5 — Going nyc please send me an invitation *2024-04-15, version 1.8.1* Please send me a invite I’m going to New York in a couple days ### 5/5 — Looking for an invite *2022-01-29, version 1.3.4* I would appreciate if someone sent an invite please and thank you in advance. ### 5/5 — Invite Please *2020-10-14, version 1.3.3* Someone send an invite so this app is actually useful, the idea is amazing ### 5/5 — Invite? *2020-10-02, version 1.3.3* Can someone plz give me an invite ### 5/5 — Invite? *2020-09-13, version 1.3.3* I really just want an invite and would really appreciate if someone could give one. I’ll even donate to charity for an invite. ### 5/5 — I *2020-03-15, version 1.3.2* Can someone invite me ### 5/5 — Awesome Exclusive App *2020-02-04, version 1.3.2* I received an invite from a friend and had no idea what it was. Ended up downloading the app and went straight to nyc (15 mins from my house). I was SHOOK when i actually changed the colors of the spires!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
