Features & Capabilities

No guessing. No trial and error. Fix the wobble quickly and easily with your phone. This app dynamically balances your ceiling fan by detecting wobble and telling you which blades and where to add weights. Preparation is simple: clean the fan and tighten all screws.

How it works: draw a dot on masking tape on the blade hub, number the blades, and hold your phone under the fan to record wobble. Check wobble in real time by pointing the camera at the dot. Then attach weight clips to the blades, record each blade's wobble, and let the app calculate the best counterweight placements for a smooth, balanced spin.

User Reviews

The app is praised for quickly and effectively removing wobble and guiding users to precise weight placements, offering clear instructions and good value. However, several reviews note reliability issues with detecting the blade dot or movement, potential compatibility problems with non-standard or certain fan designs, and a balance process that can be time-consuming for some setups. Overall, when it works, it delivers precise, repeatable results and significant time savings.
Pros
  • Very effective at eliminating wobble and reducing fan noise; many users report a perfectly balanced fan after using the app.
  • Provides clear, data-driven guidance on which blade to weight and where to place it, saving hours of trial-and-error.
  • Easy to follow with straightforward instructions; users describe it as intuitive and quick to use.
  • Low-cost and not subscription-based; users feel it offers strong value for money.
Cons
  • Dot detection/mark recognition can be unreliable; several reviewers report the app can't locate the dot or blades unless marks are highly contrasted or carefully prepared.
  • Reliability can vary by setup; some users report not getting a balance at all or only partial success due to detection or syncing issues.
  • Balance can require time and repeated trial-and-error for certain fans, making the process tedious for some users.

Recommendations for our 5 blade fans were not effective. I got them balanced by focusing on the blade that had the lowest initial score, gradually moving the weight inward, measuring wobble then moving again until I got a reading that increased and went back the other way.

Our ceiling fan would make a clicking sound, from a slight wobble, at the highest setting. Followed the steps, put on the fan weights at where it recommended on two blades. It went to zero wobble!!! Best $2 I have spent in a while.
