The killer difference

Works with built-in
smart TV apps.

Because KinoLight analyzes the screen itself, it is not limited to HDMI inputs. It works with smart TV apps, streaming sticks, consoles, set-top boxes, and anything visible on screen.

How KinoLight is different

Less hardware. More freedom.

🔗

No box in your HDMI chain

Your console, Apple TV, PC, or streaming stick stays connected directly to your TV.

💡

No one-brand lock-in

Use compatible lights across Hue, Nanoleaf, LIFX, Govee, WLED, and Tuya.

Where your phone goes

Place it anywhere stable
with a clear view.

Side table, shelf, small dock, mini tripod, or low floor stand, as long as your phone can see the TV and stays still while syncing. Calibrate once, then press play.

A small dock or stand works great for movie nights — KinoLight has been tested for 12 hours of continuous sync on iPhone 15 Pro.

No dedicated camera mount · no drilling · no permanent phone rig
