PARTY MODE Tap the Party button and your screen starts strobing in color — perfectly synced to whatever music is playing. The app listens through the microphone and flashes on every beat. No audio is ever recorded or stored. Just your screen reacting to the music in real time. Free Party Mix cycles through vivid colors automatically. Upgrade to Pro to build your own color palette, adjust beat sensitivity, and control how fast the flashes fire.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Big Days at 91% against Flash Color's 0%. Big Days also leads on rating (4.6 vs 1.0) and ratings volume (590 vs 1). Flash Color's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
