Each celebration fills the whole screen in soft sherbet colors, with sounds and haptics that make it feel real. They keep going for as long as you like.
A confetti cannon pops, shooting a burst all the way to the top of the screen before it flutters down. Then it keeps raining.
👆 Tap anywhere to throw a handful from your fingertip
A wave of balloons floats up from the bottom of the screen, swaying on their strings, and more keep coming.
👆 Tap a balloon to pop it
Rockets streak into the night sky and burst into peonies, rings, golden willows, two-tone and multicolor shells, each with a satisfying boom.
👆 Tap the sky to set off a firework right there
Colorful candles on a birthday cake light one by one while Happy Birthday plays on a music box. Blow them out and they relight, so the party never has to end.

Answers to common questions. Still stuck? We're happy to help.
Put your finger near the top of the screen, by the small handle, and pull down. When you feel a tap and see "Release to close," let go. Swipes that start lower on the screen won't close the celebration, so it's hard to leave by accident. With VoiceOver, use the two-finger escape gesture or the Close action.
Celebrate respects your device's volume and Ring/Silent switch. Make sure silent mode is off and the volume is turned up. On iPad, check that the volume isn't muted in Control Center.
Each celebration reacts differently: Confetti throws a handful from your fingertip, Balloons pops the balloon you tap, Fireworks sets off a firework where you tap, and Candles blows out the candle you tap.
Each candle relights on its own a moment after you blow it out, and Happy Birthday keeps playing, so you can blow them out as many times as you like.
