Vint turns a simple idea into something mesmerizing - draw on a spinning wheel and watch symmetry, color, and motion do the rest. Spin the canvas with a flick, pick up a brush, and start drawing. The wheel keeps turning as you go, bending every stroke into spirals, mandalas, and patterns you never planned but can't stop staring at. WHAT YOU CAN CREATE - Mandalas and radial art with adjustable symmetry - Phenakistoscopes - animation discs that bring drawings to life when spun - Optical illusions and moiré patterns - Freeform spin art - just draw and see what happens FEATURES - 5 brush types - round, flat, spray, pattern, and eraser - Stamp tool with 9 shapes, adjustable size, wiggle, and fill - Symmetry engine with mirror mode and up to 36 segments - Animation mode - step through frames like a zoetrope - Pinch to zoom for detail work - Full undo/redo and export - 9 included templates to explore and remix TEMPLATES Open any template, spin it, draw on it, and save your version as a new project. The originals are always there to start fresh.

WARNING - FLASHING LIGHTS: This app flashes bright light rapidly, which can trigger seizures in people with photosensitive epilepsy, even with no history of seizures. It starts at a gentle 3 flashes per second and asks you to confirm before going faster. Stop immediately and see a doctor if you feel dizzy, nauseous, disoriented, or notice twitching or altered vision. Do not use around anyone who may be sensitive to flashing light. PartyLight turns your phone into a light that moves with the music. It listens through the microphone, finds the beat, and flashes the whole screen - and the camera flash - right on it. EIGHT MODES - Strobe: hard white flash on every beat - Pulse: colour swells and falls with the beat - Rainbow: hue sweeps while the beat pulses - Fire: warm flicker with a beat kick - Police: red and blue alternating - Slow Fade: gentle colour drift for chill sets - Bass Drop: only the heavy low hits trigger - Manual: your own saved look WORKS WITHOUT THE MICROPHONE Don't want to grant microphone access? PartyLight runs on a steady beat you set yourself, from 60 to 200 BPM. Every mode still works. THE MICROPHONE IS NEVER RECORDED Audio is analysed in real time to find the beat and immediately discarded. Nothing is recorded, saved, or uploaded. BUILT FOR ACTUAL PARTIES - Rear camera flash synced to the beat, with an automatic cut-off so your phone doesn't overheat - Screen stays awake and goes to full brightness - No ads on the light screen itself - No account, no sign-up PartyLight is free and supported by ads.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PartyLight at none against Vint's 1. PartyLight also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.1). Vint's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price there is nothing between them.
