Softflame brings a real candle glow to the smart bulbs you already own. Matter bulbs can switch on and off, dim, and change color — but they have no way to flicker like a flame. Softflame gently moves their brightness and color, step by step, so a room fills with candlelight, a slow breath, or the drift of an aurora. When you stop, every light goes back exactly as it was. EVERYDAY PRESETS • Candle — warm white that wavers like a flame. Set the base brightness, how deep it flickers, and the color temperature (2,000–3,500K). • Breathe — slowly brighter and dimmer, six breaths a minute. • Aurora — green, teal and violet, drifting round. • Under the Sea — blue and teal, with a gentle swell of light. • Rainbow — slowly round every color. CHRISTMAS • Tree — red, gold and green in turn, dimming between colors. On Apart, every light is a different ornament. • Snowfall — snow white drifting into a pale blue, with a soft sparkle now and then. • Silent Night — a deep blue and a warm gold, slowly taking turns. • Frost — blue-white, ice blue and pale lavender, like a string of LED tree lights. HALLOWEEN • Pumpkin — yellow to orange, like a jack-o'-lantern. • Twilight — purple fading into a dark blue. • Lightning — darkness, then a blue-white flash, once or a few times in a row. New seasonal presets arrive with updates. EASY TO USE Tap a preset, check the lights you want, and press Play. Each light can run its own preset — Tree in the living room, Frost by the window. Every preset can move its lights together or each at its own pace, with a brightness setting, and speed for Aurora, Rainbow and Frost. Every preset has a moving preview, so you can see it before you try it. MADE FOR YOUR HOME • Works with bulbs that are already in the Home app: Matter over Thread or Wi-Fi, and bulbs behind a bridge. • Thread bulbs change about every quarter second; bridged and Wi-Fi bulbs every half second to a second, so the flame stays smooth instead of lagging. • Color presets need a color bulb. Candle, Breathe and Lightning work on any dimmable bulb; Pumpkin and Snowfall also run on tunable-white bulbs. • Your lights are put back — power, brightness and color — the moment you stop or leave the app. FREE AND PRO Every preset is free to try, on up to 2 lights for 30 seconds at a time. Softflame Pro is a one-time purchase, with no subscription: up to 10 lights, no time limit, and the screen stays awake while your lights are running. Softflame runs while the app is open. It has no account and collects no data; your settings stay on your iPhone. Made by the developer of HomeMonitor.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Folsom Europe at none against Softflame's 1. Folsom Europe also leads on update cadence (weekly vs monthly) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 27.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
