Moment of Silence — Virtual Memorial Candle

A quiet space to pause and remember — a virtual candle, a timer, and gentle ambient sounds. Three modes: a general moment of silence, a personal memorial with a name, dates and photo, or a tribute marking a shared event. Customize with ambient sounds, a breathing guide, and rotating reflective quotes. A tribute can be shared with family or a community by link.

FAQ

Can I use this on my phone?

Yes. The tool is fully responsive and works on all modern browsers, including Safari on iPhone and Chrome on Android.

What are the three modes?

General: a simple moment of silence with no personal info. In Memory: a tribute to a specific person with name, dates, and photo. Event: remembrance of a specific occasion with event details.

Can I adjust settings during the ceremony?

Yes. In non-fullscreen mode, a settings panel appears below the candle where you can change the sound, volume, BPM, and toggle options in real time.

How does the sharing work?

The Share button copies a link that carries the tribute text — name, dates, message — directly inside the URL. Anyone who opens the link sees the candle with the tribute already filled in. Photos are not included in the link.

Will the candle animation drain my battery?

The animation is light on the device, and it pauses when you switch tabs or the ceremony ends, so the impact on battery is minimal.
