Tomoshibi turns your screen into a soft, indirect light for the quiet hours of the evening. Dim the room lights, set it down nearby, and let a gentle glow fill the space. Set a sleep timer and it turns off on its own, so you can drift off without a second thought. 7 STYLES OF LIGHT Choose the light that suits your mood tonight. Round, soft lights: - Glow: a warm, rounded light that spreads gently - Hazy Moon: a faint, misty light like a moon behind clouds - Pulse: a round light that slowly swells and fades, as if breathing Lights that fill the whole screen: - Panels: soft light spread across the whole screen - Plain: a simple, even wash of light - Aurora: slow waves of color drifting across the screen - Washi: lamplight through a paper shoji screen, with the shadows of falling maple leaves YOUR COLOR, YOUR BRIGHTNESS Pick any color with the color wheel, or start from a preset. Adjust the brightness with a slider until the light feels just right. GENTLE SOUNDS Layer a calm soundscape over the light. Choose from four tracks: Morning Forest, Thunderstorm, Rain, and Rain + Umbrella. Set the volume and loop as you like. SLEEP TIMER Set a timer and the light turns off on its own at the time you choose. You can leave it by your pillow without worrying about switching it off. A QUIET BEDTIME REMINDER If you like, Tomoshibi can send a gentle reminder once each night at a time you pick. It arrives without sound or vibration. AD REMOVAL Ads can be removed with a one-time purchase. There is no subscription. Your purchase can be restored on a new device. Everything you need is gathered on one simple screen: on/off, timer, music, brightness, and color. When the day is done, choose a light and simply rest in its glow for a while.
