Let me introduce you to some classics.

Before you ask, no, I don't watch these. I discovered these types of videos only a few months ago and was shocked at the viewer counts.

Sometimes the internet is weird

[–] lemmyingly@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I agree. I don't understand why these videos are watched either.

There are other weird styles too. Eg. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rkUcw9INLI

Pretty sure the solid colors are for people who need to shine a specific color of light, and there's no simpler way to quickly do that. You either download a new app, or google image search and try to find something you can zoom in with.

The sound effects one I have no idea, haha

The simpler method is to load whatever stock application that came on your mobile device/computer OS that allows you to color the screen exactly as you desire. They're offline too.

I agree, I have seen at least a dozen weird things on the internet
