Is anyone using Lumenate - the trippy app?

Posting here for traffic. Has anyone else tried this or is using it?

I kept seeing it on TikTok and like with anything I see there, I went to Google to look into it then decided to download it.

I've never done any psychedelic drugs so I don't know what a trip is like but this is meant to be as close to it but without the drugs. It didn't work first time as I was holding the phone the wrong way (!) but I've been using it twice a day now - until the novelty wears off.

I just wondered if anyone else uses it and has it done any damage to your eyes? Also has anyone had any benefit or positive mental side effects? I haven't experienced anything once I put the phone down.

Oh wow! I had never heard of this and I’ve just looked it up…. That’s different.
I wouldn’t use it myself as I’ve always tripped out on even a hint of psychedelics and seem to be very sensitive to them, I feel like my brain just goes into that space naturally and pushing it further makes me a bit mad (genuinely)
its interesting though.
Id just say that treat it with the caution you would drugs?
though I guess that’s what you’re doing posting here!

It's really intense and so strange how it works behind the eyes because it's little just white, flashing light!

I've used it a couple of times. I've also taken psychedelics a fair few times. It's a tiny bit comparable, not much though.

I didn't love it so didn't continue with it. A friend liked it though, found it quite relaxing, I think he continued with it for a while.
