Does what it is intended to.

Yay! It works well and warns you when it’s about to shut off. No complaints here!

Good app

To receive 5 stars, Please include the option of picking more than just one color. While, check marks can be chosen for the random strobing through the picked colors, also a number system so the sequence of the colors can be altered. In my opinion, these additional upgrades will raise your otherwise good app, to the very best, in its intended market. Cheers! and Thank you :)

Get rid of the ad when you screen strobe

Please get rid of that google ad when we full screen strobe. It is extremely annoying and I won’t even use your app if it stays there.

Need a constant colour change

Can only change to one colour. I want multiple. Try harder.
