Once your smart lights are turned on and connected to the Twinkly app, you will be able to map your Christmas lights. The Twinkly app will use your smartphone camera to locate the position of each LED light bulb in a matter of seconds, leaving you with a map of your display on your smartphone screen. Now you can choose from a gallery of ready-to-play lighting effects, customize the presets, and create your own to make your holiday one-of-a-kind.
Discover the most original and customizable effects for your Christmas tree lights available only with Twinkly.
Metallic pinwheel
Thanks to exclusive smart light technology, with the Twinkly App you can set your indoor lights to play stunning and vibrant pinwheel beams that radiate outwards in a mesmerizing dance of Christmas lights. Twinkly's Holiday Strobes is a preset effect that creates the pinwheel-like animation. It is ready to play out of the box but can also be personalized with metallic shades like silver and white and adjusted to the speed you prefer. If you are feeling creative, try creating this effect with the FX Wizard: layer the Sun effect with the Sparkle Effect and customize your colors. Play with the speed and angle until you find the perfect fit for your Christmas décor.
Modern stripes
Give your tree a chic and modern look with stripes of all kinds. The crisp lines create a stylish and sophisticated pattern, ensuring your Christmas tree stands out with elegance and flair.
Browse and customize preloaded effects. If using the FX Wizard, start by selecting the preset effect, Stripes. Choose and adjust the angle of your stripes. Then choose your lighting colors.
Vertical stripes create a visually striking look that accentuates the height and shape of the Christmas tree. It’s ideal for emphasizing the vertical dimension, making the Christmas tree appear taller and more majestic. The stripes can be programmed to spin around the tree at fast or slow speeds. Start with presets like Vertical Flag and personalize them to match your holiday décor.
Horizontal stripes wrap around the tree like a ribbon. They move up and down the tree and are particularly effective for creating a dynamic, layered appearance, as the smart LED lights can emphasize the tree's fullness and texture. Presets that can be adjusted for Christmas include Horizontal Flag, Waves, and UpDown.
Diagonal stripes cut across the tree at various angles and sweep across the tree in a wave-like motion. Diagonal effects are great for adding a sense of movement and energy to the tree. They break away from traditional lighting setups, offering a modern and playful aesthetic that can be as subtle or as bold as desired. Choose from presets like Diagonal and Candy Cane, then customize them for color, speed, and angle.
Festive gradients
For a dreamy and flowing Christmas lighting display, opt for Twinkly’s gradient effects. These patterns create gentle waves of light that sweep across your tree. The smooth, continuous motion is both calming and captivating, perfect for creating a peaceful holiday atmosphere.
Choose from a wide selection of preloaded gradients in the Effect Gallery or design your own with the FX Wizard using the Gradient preset effect found in the Twinkly app. Choose your colors, angle, and speed - all of the details to make it completely yours.
Vertical gradients transition the LED lights from one color at the top of the tree to another color at the bottom. For example, the tree might shift from a warm yellow at the top to a deep red at the bottom, creating a sunset-like effect, like the preset effect Paradise.
Horizontal gradients transition colors from one side of the tree to the other. This can create a visual effect where one side of the tree glows with one hue, gradually blending into another hue on the opposite side. Try using effects like Warm Hug.
Diagonal gradients are more complex and can radiate outward from a central point or move diagonally across the Christmas tree. This can give the appearance of the tree being wrapped in a colorful mist or highlight specific areas with different color intensities. One of the most stunning preset holiday gradients with a diagonal angle is 24K Future.
