Very realistic

Very realistic simulator. Lots of controls and options. I am impressed with how much the phone display lights up a room with each lightning strike. I’m very pleased I bought this app

Delightful

What a delightful app works really well, the best app of this sort I’ve found so far.

Needs more customization options

Great app, but it needs more customization options like choosing thunder and lightning frequency, and maybe even a two buttons, one to trigger lightning and the other to trigger thunder, how loud the thunder is will depend on how long after the lightning flash you push the button.
