Common questions
My settings didn't show up on my other device.
Settings sync through your own iCloud account. Check that both devices are signed in to the same Apple Account and that iCloud Drive is on. The first sync can take a minute.
How do I install the Mac screen saver?
On first launch the Mac app offers to install it; macOS then asks you to confirm. If you skipped it, open Settings → About → Install Screen Saver… in the app. Afterwards pick Love a Lamp in System Settings → Screen Saver.
How do I add the widget?
Touch and hold an empty spot on your Home Screen, tap Edit → Add Widget, and search for Love a Lamp. Small, medium and large sizes are available.
Can I use it on a bigger screen?
Yes. Connect your iPhone or iPad to a display over USB-C, or AirPlay to one, and the lamp fills that screen edge to edge while your device shows the controls.
Does it keep my screen on?
Only in Ambient Mode, which hides the controls and keeps the display awake so the lamp can just run. Tap the lamp to leave Ambient Mode.
Is my data collected?
Only if you turn on anonymous analytics, which are off by default. See the Privacy Policy for exactly what that covers.
