Does not work

This app does not work. Will to see the bridge. Wasted money

Fast Perfekt

Super App mit extrem vielen Möglichkeiten sich seinen eigenen Wohlfühldonner zu generieren. Ich würde sofort 5 Sterne geben, wenn die App auch bei geschlossenem Gerät weiterhin die Licht- und Donnereffekte ausführen würde, damit ich per Sleeptimer zu dem Ganzen einschlafen kann. Ich hoffe das wird noch per Update nachgereicht!

Response from developer

Vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung. Die App sollte weiterhin im Hintergrund laufen, jedoch kann es vorkommen, dass Ihr Gerät den Hintergrundzugriff unterbricht, wenn die Audioausgabe deaktiviert ist. Falls Sie die Soundeffekte aktiviert haben, starten Sie Ihr Gerät bitte neu, um vorübergehende Störungen auszuschließen. Für weitere Hilfe wenden Sie sich bitte an support@thunderstorm.scottdodson.dev. Thank you for the review. The app should continue to run in the background but your device may stop background access if audio is disabled. If you do have the sound effects enabled, please try restarting your device to rule out temporary glitches. Contact support@thunderstorm.scottdodson.dev for more help.

Not very realistic

It’s a shame I had to spend money on this before realizing how slowly the lights flash for the lightning. Nothing like lightning at all.

Well worth the money

Very good effect if you have a room with a bunch of Hue lights. Very easy to use and works exactly as advertised. I’ve been using it for about a year now with no issues at all.

Excellent Thunderstorm simulation!

Best thunderstorms of any app I’ve tried so far! Getting my Halloween window display ready and running this has really made it come to life! One thing I would like to be able to choose more than a singular color for the lightning. But otherwise perfect!
