What’s New Version 3.3
Global Pulse mode — every phone on Earth pulses in sync and drifts through the same slowly-shifting hue at the same moment. No pairing. No internet. Just works.
Description
Colorbolt turns your phone into a full-screen color Swiss Army Knife. Pick a color and swipe anywhere on the screen to control the actual brightness of your device.
Use it as a fill light for photos, a mood lamp, a concert lighter, a nightlight, to sneak into bed without waking anyone, or just because it looks good.
PREMADE PALETTES
• 30 curated colors across three palettes — Basics, Vibes, and Moods. Useful, atmospheric, and very attractive.
MODES
• Rainbow — Your screen cycles through the full color spectrum. Hypnotic, beautiful, and surprisingly useful at parties.
• Breathing — The screen dims and brightens along with your chosen breathing pattern. Optional white noise for audio cues.
• Global Pulse — Every phone running Colorbolt at the same BPM flashes in perfect sync — anchored to the same atomic clock that runs the internet. No pairing, no setup, no internet required. Enable Global Color and every device also drifts through the exact same slowly-shifting hue at the same moment. Great for concerts and music festivals.
• Candle Ambience — Natural candlelight flicker. Warm orange light that breathes and pulses like a real flame.
• Sleep Timer — Screen slowly fades to black over your chosen duration.
• Wake Up — Gradually brightens from a dim glow to your chosen brightness — a gentle way to ease into the morning.
• Blackout — Pitch black screen. For screen cleaning, pretending your phone is off. Probably other uses.
CUSTOM COLORS
• Color wheel — Drag to any hue and saturation.
• Kelvin temperature slider — Dial in warm candlelight at 1800 K or crisp daylight at 6500 K.
• RGB + HEX entry — Find values from the colors, or colors from the values.
• Save your favorites — Build a personal library of colors you love and use.
HOME SCREEN WIDGET
Access fullscreen colors directly from your home screen — white, red, your last used color, or a shortcut straight to the color picker.

Build 884741364v3.02026-05-28 06:19:33
Total overhaul! Big changes! We've got custom colors, special modes, a widget, and more!
Build 866975345v2.12024-06-25 20:50:49
- App once again prevents the screen from dimming to keep you’re light shinin’, man
- Added haptics when maximum or minimum brightness is reached
- Added “…” to loading screen even though it’s so fast you’ll probably never see it but in case you do I wanted to make sure you didn’t think the app was stuck on a blank white screen
Build 866470944v2.02024-06-20 02:20:10
We've fixed what was broken, added what was needed, and most importantly, removed what wasn't.
Changes:
-New app icon
-Replaced vaguely tropically-themed color picker with warm and cool colors.
-Added third color picker with retro gaming sleepover vibes.
-Added color info for currently selected color at bottom of screen. It hides along with other text on the main screen.
-Horizontal swipes on main screen no longer affect brightness. Vertical swipes only for brightness.
-Brightness swiping is smoother and generally better.
-Can now press and hold to get to color pickers while text is fading in and out, again for a little bit o’ speed.
-You now return to the last color picker you were on when entering the color pickers from the main screen.
-Exiting the app resets your phone to the brightness you had it set to when entering the app.
-Removed loading screen graphics to get you into the app a littttle bit faster. Who needs it!
-Sped up text fading in and out for snappier feel.
-Lil’ surprises.
-Fixed any and all known bugs. Email me if you find some.
-Removed pop-up prompts asking you to review app.
-Added opt-in button so you can review the app and leave a tip if you wish thanks.
