Turn your phone into a calming night light with a sleep timer and soothing sounds. Lumentime helps you fall asleep faster, wind down at bedtime, meditate, and focus — with warm ambient lighting you control. Pick a color, set the brightness, choose a sound, and let the timer gently dim the light until you drift off.

Choose any color, set brightness exactly where you want it, name them, and switch between them in a tap. Sleep Timer with Auto-Dimming Set a timer and the light fades down gradually instead of cutting out. No jolt, no dark room surprise — just a slow fade as you fall asleep. 15 Ambient Sounds White noise, brown noise, rain and thunderstorms, ocean waves, crackling fireplace, forest at night, morning birds, a babbling stream, waterfalls, and more. Loop them all night alongside your light. Four Display Modes Full Screen for maximum soft glow. LED for a warm orb. Neon for glowing custom text — write anything you like. Glass for a soft frosted look. Flow Mode A slow breathing light that rises and falls at your chosen speed. Made for meditation, box breathing, and anxiety relief. Device Brightness Sync Optionally let the lamp control your screen brightness so everything stays consistent — no fiddling with the slider in the dark.

Your lamps and settings never leave your device. No cloud sync, no servers, no tracking of how you use the app. Open it and it just works. Note: lamp settings are saved on your device only, so they won't transfer if you switch phones or reinstall. GOOD TO KNOW The free version needs an internet connection because it's ad-supported. Pro works fully offline. A heads-up on health and safety: Lumentime is a relaxation and ambience tool, not a medical device or a treatment for any condition. Flow Mode and other animated effects produce changing brightness — if you have photosensitive epilepsy, a seizure disorder, or migraines triggered by light, please talk to a doctor first. Stop using it if you feel any discomfort. Don't rely on the timer for anything critical like medication reminders or alarms.
