    Pretty sure the solid colors are for people who need to shine a specific color of light, and there’s no simpler way to quickly do that. You either download a new app, or google image search and try to find something you can zoom in with.

    The sound effects one I have no idea, haha

        Remember in the very early days of the apple app store they had shit like a virtual beer so if you held the phone up to your lips it looked like you were drinking a mug of beer? Pointless but kind of showed off the phone’s capabilities? There would have been an app for put whatever color you want on the screen" with a set of RGB sliders. But nowadays that thing would require file access, phone, SMS, camera and payment permissions and would ruin your life for installing.

            Install a “basic art program” on a cell phone and tell me what permissions it asks for.

            Or just do a google image search for “red.” Is the real answer here.

              My Android phone has stock apps with the capability of coloring the screen to any color I desire. I’m sure Apple does too, and so do computer OSs.

                Really? What stock apps? I’m struggling to think what built-in app on my Galaxy S10 will just paint the screen any hex value I want. The tool I’d reach for on my Linux desktop is the Drawing utility (basic raster editor similar to MS Paint).

                  Gallery and Samsung Notes are the two that I’m aware of. I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a stock drawing app that I uninstalled.

                Yeah I’ll take an F-droid recommendation as proof of my case. Not many people are doing even that amount of side loading even on Android and forget it on iJewelry. We certainly have arrived in a place, haven’t we?

                    Why talk about anything with anyone at any time?

                    I haven’t bothered with F-Droid because at this point I either use apps that aren’t in open source repos, like my credit union’s app, the built-in apps like the camera, or I just use the web browser. Because the whole “app” ecosystem on any platform is more about exploiting me than being useful. “There’s an app begrudgingly for that.”

      The simpler method is to load whatever stock application that came on your mobile device/computer OS that allows you to color the screen exactly as you desire. They’re offline too.
