The best ever I've never had so much fun with a lighter in my life. This simple application uses the iPhone technology to it's full potential. Sonic Mule I thank you. Well worth the $0.99. - Sonic Lighter review by CYPSAD
Cool App Fun app, the graphics are very realistic and I love seeing all the lighters around the world. Also I do not know of any other app which allows two iPhones to interact this way, very unique! - Sonic Lighter review by e-man805
Wow is the only way to describe this. I'm guessing you have bigger things on the horizon. I'm very impressed. - Sonic Lighter review by RightyC1
When do we start the Meetups?!?!?! Works great, all features just as described. The mapping is fun. At the website it's possible to zoom in and see your own light: it had me precisely located within about 30 minutes of my first lighting up. So when do we start the meetups? - Sonic Lighter review by PalDavidO
It Does Exactly As Stated! I just had to see this for myself... the lighter does work when you flick it and it does flicker when you blow and does fry the side of your phone... but really though... but it is neat to see... what is cool about it is seeing all the lighters around the world.... now if this is true or not that they are really out there.... will leave it on my phone for awhile and check in awhile to see if more show up on the map... according to it already there is alot of people that have this already.... but not by the reviews of this app so far... so wonder where they got this app at? Unless they have a warez version of it.. If you are nosey and want to see this... buy it.... as for the price was it really worth it to me.... NO.... but gave it five stars because of what you can with it... - Sonic Lighter review by thetoothfairy
a greeat way to show off your iPhone So I just saw this app on Gizmodo and figured, for $.99, why not try it out. It's a lighter, so I didn't plan on reviewing it, but it does some neat tricks. Turn your iPhone sideways and the flame shifts with it. Expose it to wind (blow into the microphone), and the flame flickers. The graphics are cool and the sound effects are a surprise. You can see a globe with other users, so it will be interesting to see how the flame spreads! - Sonic Lighter review by _paul
Got a light? There's not much you can do at first, besides burn the side of your phone or blow the flame out. But seeing your flame (and others) on the globe is very cool! Would be even better if you could zoom in more. Convinced a friend to download it on her phone, and the "give a light" feature actually works. Well worth a buck. - Sonic Lighter review by viliami
Enticing application that has amused my entire office for the past day This application has been deemed surprising, attractive, and fun to interact with by many people in my dot com office! I especially love playing with the flame map and watching the popularity grow. Good work, Smule! - Sonic Lighter review by mplus
APP IS ON FIRE Utilizes every single function of the iPhone (touch screen, accelerometer, and the mic!) - Sonic Lighter review by cBroderick
Clever! Not only great design and execution of the lighter itself (using the mic as a wind velocity input tool to affect the graphic is cool, and watching the side of your iPhone bubble and melt when you turn it on it's side is amusing), but the best part is seeing the simultaneous ignitions on the globe graphic. Fascinating to see where people all around the world are using the same app at the same time. Can't wait to see what else Smule will be coming out with! - Sonic Lighter review by BrahmsIs
Paris is burning! How the people at Smule went about packing all of these crazy things into a 'lighter' is beyond me. Yet I confess I love this product.First of all, I believe it is the best lighter. The flame is realistic. It sways on tilt. If I tilt 90 degrees, I hear a crackling sound, as if the side of my phone is burning. It interacts with touch: I can resize my flame with pinch gestures. I can burn my finger by holding it in the flame. It interacts with wind: I can make the flame dance with light breath. And I can blow it out with full breath (important: aim at the base of the phone, as this is where the microphone resides). My sister has a 2G and she said it was much more difficult to blow it out. Apple increased the sensitivity of the mic/speaker hardware with the 3G, so perhaps Smule needs to compensate for this on the 2G. My sister eventually did succeed, but it definitely took more work. Crazy lighter is simply absurd. And these guys are gaming the store: free for two weeks to jack their numbers, then paid for the weekend to drive sales (and land in top 25). Read the reviews people. Read the reviews. iLighter actually has an awesome flame. But that's it. Sonic Lighter is the top lighter on the market. But it's not really a lighter. Double tap the flame and you'll see what I mean. You immediately see a real-time rendered globe from a perspective of space. And you immediately notice all of the lights all over the globe -- actual ignitions of the Sonic Lighter from people all over the world. Initially I was skeptical -- too easy to make up this data, no? So I tested it. I checked the smule map on their web site -- it allows you to zoom down to the street level. I ignited at work and home. Sure enough, I found my flame, precise to 50 meters, right there where I ignited. Then I ignited on the highway when driving. Smule was less accurate here, but I still found the flame. They must be storing all of this stuff in a big data base and accessing it real-time from my phone. When you finally realize this is real data and real people, then the gigantic flame in France becomes all the more meaningful. Paris appears to be burning to the ground. I especially enjoyed seeing the ignition off the coast of Africa -- Canary Islands? Why is China so dark? No iphones? I want more control over this view. I want to see what is igniting now (not just the past few days). I also love igniting other phones. This, like blowing, takes some skill. First, you need to hold down both valves on both phones. And second, if it is noisy, you need to put the speaker of the flame (touch pad speaker) near the mic of the phone you are igniting. Once you figure it out, this is the coolest demo on the phone. This concept is extremely powerful -- a real network about real people (vs that virtual nonsense of facebook). So, top lighter, but not really a lighter. Give me one valve lights. Fix my crash (if I launch fast after quitting I seem to have a problem, but if I wait, this seems to go away). Turn up the sensitivity on my sister's 2G phone. And then I'll give you another star. In spite of these issues, however, I can say this product rocks. * 1.1 update gave me one valve lights. Doesn't seem to crash. Sensitivity better. Adding another star (as promised). - Sonic Lighter review by the other oracle
A very fun app! This app is very fun! I love looking at my sonic light on the globe when I am travelling and watching the "fire" spread across the different continents. And it leverages all the functionality of your iphone: wifi to spread the flame to your friend's phone, speakers to blow the flame, GPS to see all the sonic community members on the globe. A must have to play with fire without getting burned...and really worth the 0.99 cents. - Sonic Lighter review by P.L.A.
Awesome Newobm you are a moron....great app really fun to use - Sonic Lighter review by Vin Van
Worthless, BUT worth 99 cents Let me explain, sure the are like a thousand lighter apps out there all of which do pretty much the same thing; show a flame. But this has some pretty inocative features that make it down right worth the buck! I love that you can view the globe in 3D and see where else the app is running WORLD WIDE... Perhaps the most interesting function that I have seen any app (lighter or otherwise) utilize. Nevermind the fact that the flame reacts to physics and the multi touch display. VERY COOL WASTE OF TIME, worth every one of my 99 pennies. - Sonic Lighter review by j.eck
Love the smule! This thing is great, I've definitely gotten more than my $.99 worth just by showing it around at a bbq yesterday. It's the networking that really makes me and everyone else smile and say... "huh?". - Sonic Lighter review by benderama
The only lighter worth getting The lighter itself is great, but the globe view with the locations where people ignited their lighter is FANTASTIC. Can't wait to see who'll be the first to the remotest locations on the planet... - Sonic Lighter review by newIfan
Fun, interactive light Sound, light, time & space. It took a lot of imagination to develop an app that is so simple and fun to play with. Great job on it & I'm looking forward to your updates & any new apps you do. - Sonic Lighter review by flmswim
Works perfect on 2G iPod Touch Downloaded this for my 2G iPod Touch and it works perfectly. Great app made by a great company, it has my recommendation. - Sonic Lighter review by Newton1221
Greatest Propeller-head App ever made I adore the Sonic Lighter App. It's one of my top three apps to show off my iPhone.I'm looking forward to some new options (a super sensitive option for lighting multiple iPhones would be cool) but it's wonderful just as it is.Spread the flame! - Sonic Lighter review by tia_tarina
