Fireplace

Turn your iPhone into a small hearth. Ember draws a living flame in real time and plays a low, uneven crackle underneath it, so a desk, a nightstand, or a dark kitchen gets the warm corner it was missing. The flame is not a video loop. Every spark is drawn on the fly, so it never repeats the same way twice, and the sound is generated alongside it with the same irregular pop and settle a real burn has. FOUR BURNS TO CHOOSE FROM - Birchwood: bright, snappy flames over pale split logs - Cedar Logs: tall, lazy flames with a deep resinous glow - Oak Coals: low smouldering embers, barely a flame, all heat - Fireplace Insert: a steady, even burn framed like a hearth insert Each one has its own flame shape, color and speed, and its own crackle character, from sparse and hollow over coals to quick and busy over birch. Heart the ones you come back to and they move to the front of the gallery. TUNE IT TO THE ROOM - Flame intensity, from a handful of embers to a full blaze - Brightness, so it can glow across a room or barely light a nightstand - Crackle on or off, with its own volume - Tap the screen to drop the controls and the status bar for a clean, full-screen fire SLEEP TIMER THAT ACTUALLY FADES Set 15, 30, 60 or 90 minutes. Instead of cutting out, Ember spends the last minute dimming the flame and drawing the sound down to nothing, then stops on its own. Nothing snaps you awake at the end. KEEPS PLAYING Audio continues when the screen locks or you switch apps, and it mixes with other audio, so you can lay a crackle under a podcast, a call, or your own music. QUIET BY DESIGN No account, no sign-in, no ads. Your scene choice and favorites stay on the device. Portrait, dark, and built to be left running. GOOD FOR Winding down before bed, reading, working through a long afternoon, a cozy background while guests are over, or a warm screen on a cold night in an apartment with no chimney. Fireplace: Crackling Sounds requires an Ember Premium unlock to play. Premium opens the whole app: all four burns, Birchwood, Cedar Logs, Oak Coals and Fireplace Insert, the complete crackle set with its own volume, flame intensity and brightness, favorites, full-screen mode, background audio, and the fading sleep timer at 15, 30, 60 or 90 minutes.
