Edge Lighting: LED Borderlight

What it does

Edge Lighting: LED Borderlight is a personalization app that places animated light effects around the edge of your phone’s display. It is suited to users who want a more noticeable home or lock screen, or who prefer visual alerts and decorative effects over a plain screen.

Ways to customize the look

You can choose different border colors, including multicolor and gradient-style effects, then adjust the border shape to fit your taste. The available designs cover themes such as emojis, hearts, animals, holidays, flowers, zodiac symbols and names. Border thickness, animation speed and animation direction can also be changed, with notch adjustments for different screen layouts.

The app also includes a collection of live wallpaper templates. You can pair the lighting with a selected background or use a personal photo, making the border effect part of the phone’s home or lock screen rather than a separate decoration.

Effects beyond the wallpaper

Edge lighting can be displayed over other apps, so the effect remains visible while you use games, social networks or messaging apps. A caller ID mode adds a glowing border effect when a call arrives. These features make it more relevant if you want the lighting to act as an on-screen notification as well as a visual theme.

What the numbers suggest

With a 4.63 rating from 85,694 reviews and more than 5 million installs, the app has a substantial user base. It is published by Maxlabs Personalization Tools in the Personalization category. Compare it with another edge-lighting app based on the details that matter to you: wallpaper variety, overlay behavior, call alerts or the amount of control over colors and animations.
