About Flashlight Utility

This is a free and open source no-nonsense flashlight app. It has a simple interface like a flashlight should and has no advertisements or stupid features. The screen auto-dims when you turn it on so you do not get blinded when you're using it in the dark. It is compatible with phones that have an LED flash. Feel free to checkout the source on Github.

Unsupported Phones
------------------
Motorola DroidX
Samsung Galaxy Ace

These phones are unsupported because of their crappy implementation of the Android camera API. Don't give this app a bad review. These are bugs with the phones themselves. I will try and release patches to work around these issues, but unfortunately I don't have access to all Android devices. Tester are welcome. E-mail me: jswenski@gmail.com

A light that works with Galaxy Note 3. It also shows your battery % under the virtual button. Nice and without the bullshit location and MEID permissions that OTHER APPS REQUEST.

The worst ever, I could not turn my screen off and have the flash light stay on, how stupid is that

T70%
by T####:

Works well for my LG G3 and being ad-free and open it's perfect. Only requests would be the option for a brighter background to illuminate the display and a fast strobe button.

No special permissions required. Even Droid light needed access to things it shouldn't have needed. Good alternative! Thanks to the Dev. Keep it simple..... It's a flashlight after all!

I'd give it five stars if the screen light included an option to change from red to soft white. As is the developer deserves a 4.5 rating well done!!

Working well on Xperia sola

Q70%
by Q####:

Has been working fine on all my devices. Simple UI and small footprint, it is the perfect flashlight app/widget. No blinking light, no morse code option, no police red & blue flashing screen. Just a good, one-click away flashlight for all your phones and tablets. Too bad it seems to be abandon-wear. But, if it ain't broke don't fix it! Highly recommend. LG G2

Doesn't * upload my contacts * check my location * upload my pictures * read my calendar * read my phone info like unique phone ID number * display ads * access the Internet It is sad that I had to look for a while to find a flashlight app that doesn't do anything that it isn't supposed to do. Google, do something about this. Apple's iOS lets you restrict individual access for all those things. Apps on iOS have to ask for those accesses and need to be prepared to work if you restrict any access.

Great functionality and doesn't sell your data like other flashlight apps!

Doesn't work with nexus 5

S70%
by S####:

Great simple flashlight. It still needs hardware permission so it can still turn on your camera and take pics without you knowing its not completely permission free.
