Light shows for iPhone
Turn your room
into a stadium.
Stadium Room turns the Philips Hue, Govee and WLED lights you already own into a light show that plays on the beat of your Apple Music. Design it on a timeline. Hit play. Feel the drop.
- No hub to buy
- Works with lights you own
- Free on iPhone
Plays on the lights you already have
Choreographed, not guessed
Mic modes flash at noise.
A show knows the song.
Every effect sits on the song's own timeline, in bars and beats. The build-up builds. The drop drops. The quiet verse stays quiet. Same show, every time you press play.
How it works
From song to show in four steps
- 1
Bring your lights
Add the Philips Hue, Govee and WLED lights you already own over Wi-Fi, or pair an Aura light over Bluetooth. No hub to buy.
- 2
Pick a song
Choose any track from Apple Music. Stadium Room lays it out on a timeline with bars and beats so every effect lands where the music does.
- 3
Paint the show
Drop gradients, sweeps, strobes and sparkles onto the timeline, one lane per group of lights. Scrub and preview before a single bulb turns on.
- 4
Press play
The song plays and every light in the room follows it in sync. Save the show and it's ready the next time that song comes on.
Features
Built like a lighting desk.
Feels like an iPhone app.
Editor
A real timeline, not a mic mode
Most music sync listens through a microphone and guesses. Stadium Room plays a show you designed against the song's clock, so the drop hits on the drop, every time.
Sync
On the beat, across brands
Hue, Govee and WLED each add their own network delay. Calibrate once per brand and they flash together, on the same beat, in the same room.
Room
Effects that move across the room
Place your lights where they really are. Sweeps and chases travel left to right across the room instead of blinking at random.
Control
A look without a song
Not playing music? Put a calm gradient or a slow wave on every light from the Control tab, or toggle them from Control Center and the Lock Screen.
Discover
Shows other people made
Search any song and see the light shows people have already made for it. Preview one, get it in a tap, and play it on your lights. Publish your own for everyone else.
Preview
Design with no hardware at all
Virtual lights run the same engine as the real ones inside the app. Build a whole show on the couch and see exactly what the room will do.

Every night that deserves a light show
House parties

Wind-down
Slow waves and warm gradients that breathe with a quiet album at the end of the day.
FAQ
Questions, answered
What is Stadium Room?
+
Stadium Room is an iPhone app for making light shows synced to music. You pick a song from Apple Music, design the show on a timeline, and your Philips Hue, Govee and WLED lights play it on the beat.
Which smart lights does it work with?
+
Philips Hue (through a Hue Bridge), Govee Wi-Fi lights with LAN Control turned on, WLED controllers, and Aura lights (ESP32 controllers running the app's firmware). One show can play across all of them at once.
Do I need Apple Music?
+
To play a show to a song, yes: the app follows Apple Music playback to keep the lights in time, and playing full songs requires an Apple Music subscription. Without one you can still build shows on a free timeline with no song, and use the Control tab to put a look on your lights.
Does it work with Spotify?
+
Not today. Spotify no longer gives new apps access to the playback information needed for sync. Apple Music is supported now.
How is this different from a music or mic mode?
+
Mic modes react to whatever sound reaches the microphone, so they flash on loud moments and miss the structure of the song. A Stadium Room show is designed for a specific song and plays against that song's own clock, so every effect lands where you put it.
Do I need to buy a hub or new hardware?
+
No. Hue lights use the Hue Bridge you already have. Govee and WLED lights connect directly over your Wi-Fi. There is nothing else to buy.
Do the lights stay in sync with each other?
+
Yes. Each brand adds a different network delay, so the app has a one-time sync calibration per brand. After that, Hue, Govee and WLED lights flash on the same beat.
Can I try it without any smart lights?
+
Yes. Virtual lights run the same rendering engine inside the app, so you can design and preview a full show before connecting anything.
Does the phone have to stay open?
+
Wi-Fi lights (Hue, Govee, WLED) follow a show while the app is open and playing. Aura lights store the show and keep playing on their own.
Can I use light shows other people made?
+
Yes. The Discover tab lists shows people have published, by song. Search for a song, preview a show, and tap Get show to add it to your library and play it on your own lights. No account is needed to browse or get shows.
Can I share my light shows?
+
Yes. Long-press a show in the Shows tab and choose Publish to Discover. Anyone can then find it under that song. Publishing needs a free account so people can see who made it.
Do I need an account?
+
No. You can make shows, play them, and browse and get shows from Discover without signing in. An account is only needed to publish your shows or save ones you like. You can sign in with Apple, with Google, or with a code sent to your email.
How do I report a person or a show?
+
In the app, open the show or the person's profile, tap ••• and choose Report, then pick a reason. We review every report, and the person you report isn't told who reported them. For an urgent safety issue, also email us.
How do I contact support?
+
In the app, go to Settings → Help & feedback; when you're signed in you can see our replies there. You can also use the contact form on this website or email support@stadiumroom.app. A person replies, usually within two business days.
Is there an Android version?
+
Not yet. The app is available for iPhone first.
What does it cost?
+
Stadium Room is free to download.
