I've used it since the first galaxy phone came out. It may be minimalistic, but that's what makes it great. I don't understand why it isn't at the top of the search results, but I dig for it every time I purchase a new phone. It's a no-brainer!

Did not get it to work for me (Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom) had high hopes. I heard through the grapevine, that there may not be one that will work.

Designed with class, no distractions or ugly fake buttons on the screen. perfect for a reading light and no adds all its missing is open source

This app has worked well on all my prior phones, but requires camera permissions on my Galaxy S8, which uses Nougat. There is no option to allow the camera permissions. Please fix this.

Best application for my needs with the fewest permissions required, on the market.

NO PERMISSIONS other than camera, to make use of camera's led light. default is to fill the screen of your device with white color (you control how completely the screen is filled). Optional via double-tap is to use your camera's LED. You can also change the screen color. Simple. Works.

Minimal permissions and extremely light weight. There is a slight lag in turning the LED on or off on my Nexus 5. I wish there was a setting to open the app directly into having the LED on, as that is all I use. Update: the lag is annoying

C70%
by C####:

Using it on a nexus 5, I like it because it's quick and easy. You can double tap to activate the flash LED, and using the lock button on the phone or the home button turns it off. A good simple flashlight. Nice icon too.

A70%
by A####:

You just have to be smart enough to use it. If you still bang bricks together above your head to try starting fires, this app isn't for you. If you can distinguish how MUCH brightness you need for a task (& know what distinguish means), this app is for you.

Z70%
by Z####:

Only permission needed to install app is the use of the camera! Other flashlight apps need permissions for contacts and to connect to the Network for their annoying apps.

D70%
by D####:

This flashlight app is the best. No ads, no weird permissions, has a non-flash mode with easy to control brightness and can use the camera's flash. By far beats all the others

C70%
by C####:

I tried a bunch until I found this one. No Ads! Doesn't sell your location or identity! Tiniest Flashlight I could find, doesn't hog megabytes of memory! I'm using v2.0.3. The one bad review is way out of date. It has a bit of delay on my old Gingerbread phone, but my new Moto X is quick as a flash!

O70%
by O####:

Previous poster is noob. Works FIRST time. Plus it only requires hardware tools access. Almost all other flashlight, apps require all tracKing and data and personal info! wtf for?? Screw that!!!!! This one works and won't track you. 5 stars.

C70%
by C####:

Does exactly what it says, and does it perfectly. No unnecessary bells or whistles - AND NO ADS! - just a good flashlight that uses the screen or your camera flash. Plus it has a nice icon. :)

This is the best ........... especially if you don't need the bright light of the LED.. I go to bed much later than my wife and this provides a variable light for all conditions. It will not blind her if by chance I wake her. I also use it when we visit the grand children. I can go and check on them late at night and a soft dim light is all I need. It is easy to adjust and I am amazed how many times I use it. Thanks for a nice app.

Now the adjustable part doesn't work. The pinch zooming doesn't work. And it no longer over-rides the LED on lower battery percents. Too bad...

by C####:

Really good app, easy to use! Loves double tap to turn on camera's flash. Only thing missing is long press volume up to turn on flashlight.

C70%
by C####:

I have been five-star happy user for several years now but I have to downgrade the app as it does not activate the camera flash on my new Samsung Galaxy S7 phone using Marshmallow. It says it needs the permissions to the camera which I would happily give it if it only asked – but it didn't. I am only giving it one star as I find the camera flash is extremely useful at times and now I will have to go look for a better flashlight.

L70%
by L####:

The only negative thing about this app is that the flashlight closes if you leave the screen. Other than that, perfect.

L70%
by L####:

Very easy-to-use. No weird permissions outside of what is needed for function. Simple with a very small amount memory needed. Has worked great for me.

H70%
by H####:

Worked great on my old phone and loved it. With my new HTC 10 running Marshmallow, I get a "No camera permission" error and can't use the LED. Is there a way to give permission? The screen light with the zoom works just fine though.

Camera flash led won't turn on for my droid maxx 2.

Doesn't work on my LG G3 running Lollipop. I get the white circle that expands and contracts with gestures, but the LED on the back of the camera does not turn on.

I get a "No camera permission" error when trying to turn on the LED. Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini / Android 6.0.1

Says it doesn't have permission to use the camera flash and the camera has nowhere to allow it. Stuck.

is why I'm here. I use the display light for reading at night (yes, I still do read what's written on paper and does not glow itself), adjusting the brightness just not to wake up my sweetheart. The camera flashlight is useful too of course. And at last but not least, no ridiculous permissions. At all! Just like that! So it is possible, I see.

It was my favorite flashlight app. This doesnt work on some 4.4.0 and up android devices. Screen light will work, double tap LED flashlight might not work. (Other tested flashlight apps do work.) Tested on LGMS345 10f, 5.1.1 , not rooted yet, mpcs, and tested on LG MS395 10g, 4.4.2 , unrooted, mpcs. (Worked on lg ms395 only when rooted)
