Well, I am going to keep it for now, but it's just too d**n rapid. Flames, while far from sluggish, are relaxing. These things are freakin' frantic.
Reviews for Blaze - 4K Virtual Fireplace
← Back to Blaze - 4K Virtual FireplaceEvery fireplace looks great and usually plays well. I had problems with the app, but the developer promptly addressed them.
Worked perfectly on Philips OLED with Ambilight. It becomes the native Android TV screensaver, it has a selection of fireplaces so I can test the colors with Hue...excellent! Are the purchased videos 4k? Because the previews don't seem to be.
[UPDATE] Wow, super responsive developer, bug was fixed within days of having reported it. Works perfectly now on all my devices. The fireplaces look beautiful on our 65" OLED TV. Good selection and very reasonable priced given quality of app and level of developer support.
I bought this for my Sony Bravia tv and some of the videos were a little glitchy in 4k, but in an example of the BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER, the developer replied to my email (sent on a Sunday night) and fixed it completely with higher res videos - extraordinary. Love it ❤ 👍
This is a nice app for you Smart TV. I would give it 5 stars but it lacks the ability to connect to other Smart Bulbs suchs as TP Links Tapo or Alexa and not just Philips Hue Bridge.
Really nice Fireplaces but useless on any Smart TV that has minimal internal storage: which is all of them. With 30MB of storage you would think you could move it to an external memory storage; you cannot. I will have to uninstall until this gets changed.
Lovely but I wish it was possible to cast the image to Chromecast 1&2. An option to adjust the brightness would be neat as well. Hopefully this will change in one of the future versions.
There are no Christmas fireplaces, no background sounds or music.........perhaps the only thing that this app has going for it is the $2.99 special to order all of the scenes, really.
A really nice app, but could you enable the app to rotate on your next update. I have a Lenovo Yoga Smart Tab tablet that I can hang on the wall. But unfortunately as you app does not rotate the fire display is upside down. Thanks, The update works a treat.
Only comes with charcoals; other options are DLC at $1.49+ each. *comic book guy impression* "Worst download ever" immediately Uninstaller. 0/10. Do not recommend!
Very nice app I now set my screensaver to come on more often! I never turned the 4K setting on until I reset my TV and went through again and wow it looks even better! Just wish there was more customisation on flames and colours as well as more minimal ones to choose from. Will definitely purchase if more is available
Great screen saver and the BEST avalaible yet. I bought this screen saver holiday package (Includes all variants) for my 4K tv and everything is great and it can give you a false sense of warmth (psychologically) by just having this in your living room. This is best enjoyed when the lights are out or very dim warm lighting in the evening or night time, you can also play your favourite acoustic, jazz, or classical tunes in the background to compliment the mood or you can also have it as it is.
It does look and sound great and was able to connect my hue lights to it. I bought the bundle but none work, except the basic one. I get a loading error message. Also do i have to purchase for each tv ? Error was on a Sony X-80J. Went to try it on an A-80J but the purchase didn't carry over, thou using same Google Play account.
simple and easy to use with excellent video quality. would be 5 star if casting to tv was available - edited to add that i should have tried mirroring my phone before suggesting casting didn't work. casting works seamlessly and there is no loss on picture quality. brilliant realistic fire on the big screen. one minor issue is that the play button for each fireplace is partially obscured - developer aware so hopefully will be tweaked in a future update.
Misleading description. The description says "chose from 6 fireplaces". The correct description should read "you get a free charcoal screen but you can also purchase from 5 other options available"... Since none of the fireplaces can be used unless you purchase them, which is fine, it's understandable that apps and devs need to make money, but they should make things clear from the start
It's really helping for letting me to fall asleep. I've also purchased the "all in one" package! I love all the seven firewoods, it's so efficient and a neat idea at the same time! I hope you will make another app just like this such as 4K river view with a fireplace on it, meadow blossom with the sound of breeze... you get the gist of it!
Love it. Worth buying. I'm still in the process of adjusting to spending money on digital products. I always look for a way to get something free, but after understanding the process of creating digital products, I am more open to supporting developers who give quality products like this one. The ambience is well done, to a point where i get into a quiet flow state.
Edit: Okay, I bought it, even though there is no sleep timer. I will just ask that you put one in, please. :) Original: Seems okay. It would be nice if more than the embers were free, like just one more option. The price to unlock them all at once is actually a decent deal, but I would want a sleep timer option before spending money on the app. The sound quality is nice, and the embers look really good. If you add a sleep timer, let me know.
Not clear enough that one fireplace is free and the others are paid. The free one happens the be the crappiest one too, obviously. EDIT: I'm very conscious that developers have to make a living, I just think they should point out what you get or don't get in the app description ie one fireplace free, the others can be unlocked with a small one time payment. Otherwise its verging on bait and switch. Extra star though for your efforts.
