"Lighter Simulator with Concert Mode" is a realistic metal lighter simulator for your phone. Perfect for concerts, parties, and fun moments anytime. Main features: • 70+ lighter themes and 42 colors, plus new downloadable designs every month • Colorful flames to choose from • Favorites: keep your favorite lighters in one place • Studio: use your own photo to customize the body, lid, or background • Blow to put out the flame • Concert mode: keep the flame burning continuously • Uses the camera flashlight for a more realistic effect How does it work? Use your finger or shake your phone to open the cap of the metal lighter. When the top lid is open, strike the flint wheel the same way you would with a real cigarette lighter. Sparks will appear under the flint and should light the wick. As this is a very realistic simulator, it is possible that you may not manage to light it on the first try. Keep spinning the flint wheel until the flame appears (or enable the "Always light the flame on the first try" option in settings). When the lighter is on, your phone’s torch will turn on for a better visual effect. You can now move or tilt your phone and observe how the flame reacts. To stop the flame, close the top lid using your finger or by shaking the phone. You can also blow towards the flame (to enable this feature, turn on "Blow to put out the flame" in settings).

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: iFire ++ at none against Lighter Simulator Concert Mode's 1. iFire ++ also leads on review sentiment (91% vs 66%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). Lighter Simulator Concert Mode's advantage is ratings volume (4.6K vs 107) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Lighter Simulator Concert Mode holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lighter Simulator Concert Mode has 4.6K ratings behind it against 107, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 91% of iFire ++'s written reviews are positive against 66% of Lighter Simulator Concert Mode's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

iFire ++ ships an update every 2 months, Lighter Simulator Concert Mode every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
