LumaLink – Motionlight
Flashlight & Disco Light
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
LumaLink turns your iPhone into a versatile light - by a tap, automatically as you approach, conveniently from your Apple Watch, or as a light show for the party.
Whether at the campsite, on a night walk, as an outdoor night light, in your camper van, during a power outage or while reading in the tent: LumaLink gives you light exactly when you need it - no fumbling in the dark.
HIGHLIGHTS
- Flashlight with stepless brightness and a smooth fade
- Remote control from your Apple Watch - on/off and dimming right from your wrist
- Auto light on approach: using Ultra Wideband, LumaLink notices when you come closer with your watch and turns the light on automatically - and off again when you leave
- Lock mode: a black screen that protects against accidental taps - unlock with 5 taps, a long press, or from your Apple Watch
- Power saver: screen fully dark, the light stays on
- Pair several iPhones and use them together as lamps
SCREEN LIGHT
When the LED is not the right tool, the screen itself becomes a lamp:
• Warm light for reading and as a night light
• Daylight for selfies, make-up and video calls
• Red light that keeps your night vision: for camping, fishing and stargazing
• Candle and campfire with a calm, natural flicker
SIGNAL & SOS
• Morse SOS, beacon and fast strobe
• The LED flashes, the screen stays calm
EVERY DAY
• Sleep timer: the light turns itself off after 5 to 120 minutes
• Battery guard: shuts down before the battery runs out
• Nightstand light: lying on its side while charging, LumaLink shows a clock and glows dimly
• Siri, Shortcuts, Lock Screen widget, Control Centre and the Action button
DISCO MODE
Turn one or more iPhones into a light show:
- Flashes to the beat of your music - detected live via the microphone, or by tap tempo/BPM
- Light patterns: All, Chase, Alternate or Random
- Choose which iPhone runs the show (host) - the others flash along automatically (guests)
- Arrange several iPhones freely and tap one to identify it with an LED flash
- Start and stop the disco right from your Apple Watch
GREAT FOR
Camping & tents - parties & celebrations - outdoor night light - camper van - garden evenings - power outages - workshop & basement - night walks with the dog
LumaLink uses only your devices' hardware - no account, no cloud, no data sharing.
Note: auto light on approach needs an iPhone 11 or newer and an Apple Watch Series 6 or newer with Ultra Wideband. Disco mode with music detection uses the microphone.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Redesigned, and the watch can do more.
- Dark interface: LumaLink no longer dazzles you when you open it at night.
- Four equal mode cards with live state: screen, signal, disco and lock mode show what is running at a glance.
- Auto light is back on the home screen, with distance slider and live reading.
- Help and support are reachable from the home screen, and lock mode now says whether Guided Access is on.
- SOS can be started from the Apple Watch.
- New: start light, disco or auto light on the watch while the iPhone app is closed, and the watch wakes the iPhone and sends you a notification. One tap opens LumaLink and carries the request out right away.
- The watch now tells you when a request is still waiting for the app to open, instead of letting it lapse in silence.
- New complication: open LumaLink with one tap from the watch face.
- The watch now separates the iPhone link from the Ultra Wideband measurement, so searching no longer looks like a fault.
- The signal no longer flashes the whole screen, only the LED.
- Brightness can be set cleanly with the Digital Crown.
- Now in Polish, Portuguese and Russian.
