Summon a thunderstorm light show using your LIFX lights. Watch your lights pulse and flash to the sounds of a storm.* THUNDERSTORMS • Strong Thunderstorm — Heavy rain with frequent lightning and thunder nearby Lights pulse quickly to the sound of heavy rain. Booming sounds of thunder accompany bright flashes of light. • Normal Thunderstorm — Steady rain with a full range of lightning and thunder Lights pulse to the sound of rain. The sound of thunder can be heard from various distances. The closer the lightning, the louder the sound, and the brighter the flashes of light! • Weak Thunderstorm — Light rain with occasional lightning and thunder far off Lights pulse slowly to the sound of light rain. Dim flashes of light are followed by soft sounds of thunder. • Passing Thunderstorms — Rain and lightning intensity changes as the storms pass Lights pulse and flash at different rates to correspond with the current strength of the storm.

When you add, remove, or change lights, pull down the list to refresh. ADDITIONAL FEATURES • Lightning on demand. Start a storm and tap one of the lightning buttons at the bottom of the page. • Sleep Timer with audio fade out. Sleep End State setting lets you choose what happens to the state of the lights when the sleep timer ends. • Bluetooth and AirPlay supported via Control Center.

I'd love to hear your thoughts and appreciate you taking the time to rate the app. By leaving a review, I can continue to improve Thunderstorm for LIFX and create a great experience for you and future users.

I asked for a refund and Apple would not refund me. There is an issue with the app staying connected. It doesn’t work properly. I honest want my money back for to it.

Having used LIFX for the past three years, I’ve seen a lot of issues come and go. From lights not syncing to firmware problems, etc. I know it’s far from perfect but the developers of LIFX have strived to make it better. With that said, this app is phenomenal. It does exactly what it says it does and it does it WELL. I understand some folks may have had issues with it, but before you blame this app I’d take a look and see if your LIFX bulbs are really working the way they should. With my current setup (30+ bulbs) this app makes the whole house feel like a thunderstorm. Paired with a solid audio system and it’s the next best thing to having a real storm. Kudos to the developer for such a nice piece of software. Give it a try!

I have recessed lighting by Hue and the version of the app for that works fine. My normal lamp bulbs are LIFX and while I’m glad there’s an app that exists for LIFX (because they are superior to Hue in almost every way!), the app just doesn’t find my lights. I’ve tried everything including resetting both of my LIFX bulbs but it just doesn’t find them so this app is totally useless, along with the firestorm one because I bought the bundle. I emailed support a while back but haven’t received a response. I’d be willing to change my review if the developer actually offered some support but until then, 1 star.

The app developer has put in his time and effort creating a smooth, seamless and amazing app. The app has all the features you could think of such as sleep timers, customisation, background noises etc. The app is smooth, easy to find options and is not overwhelming. The $6 price for the app is reasonable and worth it.

It’s an ok app. links with LIFX well enough, but stops working if you tab out of the app sometimes. The features it has are ok, but not enough to justify $6. There are only 4 options per app. This one has storm levels 1-4. Don’t know why all functions aren’t in the same app. Why separate the fire and storm features? Why not have one app with all functions? Imo. Overall, not worth the money. But I’ve bought it already and might as well use it.

I’ve had the app for Hue ( different developer ) for a long time and couldn’t be happier with the simplicity and experience of the app. Friends all love it when I crank the stereo and put the storm on. I bought two LIFX bulbs for my room and downloaded this app, and instantly wish i hadn’t. It’s only 3 bucks I know but plain and simple I just won’t use it because it just doesn’t meet the standard of my other app for HUE. If you’d like a cool experience I recommend buying HUE lights and download “Hue Thunderstorm”
