Setup and control devices

Free

New: watch every look full screen with no light needed, a Mac app, Siri shortcuts, and a preview that shows your ball cup by cup. Sparkle Ball is the free app for our handmade Sparkle Balls: the classic glowing ball of clear cups and lights, made in North Carolina. Set your ball up, pick a look, change the colors, and set timers, all from your device. No Sparkle Ball yet? Just watch. The app runs the ball's own looks full screen, no light needed. SET UP IN A MINUTE • The app finds your Sparkle over Bluetooth. • Pick your home Wi-Fi and type the password. The app finds the ball on your network and opens its controls. • No Wi-Fi handy? Bluetooth Light Controls give you quick looks and brightness without it. DOZENS OF LOOKS Start with Sparkle, our take on old incandescent Christmas lights: warm, deep colors and an uneven, random blink. Then try Twinkle, Candlelight, Embers, Fireworks, Fluid, Impressionist, Comet, Rain and many more. COLORS AND SPEED • Palettes from Classic and Warm white to Halloween, Christmas, July 4th, Hanukkah, Diwali, Ocean and Sunset. • Pick up to six colors of your own. • Set the speed and brightness, or let the colors cycle on their own. MAKE IT YOURS • Favorites: save the looks you like for one-tap recall. • Designer: mix layers such as Wash, Dapple, Chase and Sparkle into a look of your own. • Timers: turn on at sunset, dim at bedtime, wake up to a soft glow. • Groups: give several lights the same group name and they follow each other. • The ball remembers its look, speed and brightness after you unplug it. SIRI AND SHORTCUTS "Turn on Sparkle Ball", "Next Sparkle Ball look", "Surprise me with Sparkle Ball". Change the look, colors and brightness by voice or from the Shortcuts app. SEE IT AS YOU CHANGE IT A live preview shows what your light is doing, drawn cup by cup the way the real ball is built. Also on the Mac and Apple TV. The Sparkle Ball needs 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi for the full controls. Get one at finestsparkleballs.com.
