Ants on a Melon

About this app

The Ants on a Melon app lets you manage the RGB Critter BT color-changing flashlight.


This app has endless playlists for organizing your preferred modes, plus a custom mode section for easily creating new modes. The DIY page enables you to make your own unique modes with 8 different effects, adjustable speed, and infinite color choices.


Developed with Flow Artists and Light Painters in mind, the Ants on a Melon app offers a Universal Settings page with adjustable options like autoplay, strobe, brightness, and more.


The user-friendly pairing section allows effortless simultaneous control of up to 10 RGB Critters simultaneously, with a maximum range of 20 meters.

Upcoming Features:
-The RGB Critter BT currently requires the Ants on a Melon app to operate, but in the Fall of 2024, we will add functionality that allows you to use it independently of the app.
-The Ants on a Melon App enables users to connect up to 10 RGB Critter BT Flashlights simultaneously. However, it is important to note that there is a known issue with color-changing modes when multiple Critter BTs are connected to the app. The colors may not always match perfectly on the connected flashlights. This issue only applies to color-changing modes, as solid colors will always match on any number of connected RGB Critter BTs. A resolution for this known issue is expected by the end of 2024. Once the issue is resolved, you can update your RGB Critter BT using the app.
