Flashlight Ⓞ Reviews

by Papadoc1000

This was a good app for years. However the company is constantly doing updates and wants access to your WiFi and cell data. WHY? It already works, has never crashed, never shows a new function. So what are they doing? The update explanation is ALWAYS “increased stability and performance”. Leave it alone already! It’s just a this app, not an interactive leading edge tech gadget. And if they aren’t doing anything hinky, then this is how you break things that already work.

UPDATE: they have started asking to track me across all apps. Why? NO! But they don’t take no for an answer so they keep asking. And always right when you need Flashlight . And then show you other apps to buy. Too much of a pain. It’s now uninstalled.

Before iOS 11, this would very rarely show an ad. When it did, you could easily close it. With the iOS 11 “optimized” version, it shows ads 100% of the time. Most of them can’t be closed and they change so fast you can’t see what they are anyway. Trying to click the this app button results in a window opening showing their other apps - touching “done” in the corner doesn’t work, I have to completely close Flashlight to get out. Other times, trying to turn on the light just results in being forced to Safari where an investment firm’s website is shoved down my throat. This is inappropriate behavior. I have no choice but to uninstall this spam machine - opening Flashlight would be like turning on your TV and seeing commercials 100% of the time.

Flashlight works fine when it is on, but you cannot either turn off your phone or go into another app because if you do, then Flashlight shuts down. This means it burns up a lot of battery time because Flashlight needs to stay on your screen at all times. It literally uses more energy on your screen then it does for the this app function itself. And, because it is always live on your screen, it is susceptible to accidental changes if you touch the screen itself.

If there is a way to “leave“ Flashlight while keeping it functioning, then I am happy to improve my rating. Otherwise, it is not really functional as is.

Overall a nice app. Using the this app that “comes WITH” the iPhone means the light doesn’t turn off when you turn the phone off. Sometimes it’s much handier to have the light turn off when you turn the phone off. The downside is twofold: 1) With Flashlight, you cannot simultaneously run any other app (not that “I” can figure anyway), & (2) It frequently won’t activate - forcing one to DELETE Flashlight , then RE-DOWNLOAD it....OR, try closing out of THIS this app app and turning on and off your iPhone this app (Which ALWAYS WORKS) a couple of times. I don’t know why but, No.2 works about 85% of the time in “getting this other app UP AND RUNNING”.🌹

I really like Flashlight. It is better than any this app I have at present & I know I won't have to worry about the battery running out plus it is super bright. It is so cool. Lucy
It is still really a cool app to have. I use it a great deal of the time, heck it's so bright I can use it in the day time to find things. Love it! Lucy
I was going to give you a 4 stars rating because the this app was better before the latest update. Although I think I figured out why it was giving me the fits. When it's in regular mode it works ok, but when I have the ID & passcode on then the problems begin. The this app freezes up, it won't go on & off like it's suppose to I have to turn the whole thing off.

I'm 72 years old and this this app really comes in handy because it is always right there on my person in case of a fall. And when I can't find my glasses. Sometimes they fall because I have fallen asleep while reading and they go under my bed. Makes it easier for me to find them quickly. And with my phone right there on the nightstand, that's convenient if I have to get up at night for water. It really is a lifesaver for me. Thank you for that.

I’ve had Flashlight on several devices during the time this this app 🔦 has been available, ZERO issues!!! The light 💡 output compares with many regular flashlights currently on the market. It isn’t the replacement for a regular this app, but as just about everyone has a smartphone, knowing that there is a bright, dependable, and long lasting light on your device. Install this this app app & even if you never have a need to use it, believe me, you won’t regret it! Unlike other apps, this is one that you don’t have to worry about it being a waste of memory space, because the first time you need a light and then you reach for your device, and save the day (or night)!!!

First of all, Flashlight has a nice screen. I also like the fact that you can dim the this app if you don't require much to get the job done. The compass feature is also cool because it's like a handy little GPS. It shows you your location on a map. You can zoom in or zoom out to find out where you are or were you need to go. You know, like if you get abducted by aliens and they drop you off 50 miles from home in unfamiliar territory. Oh yeah...if they're nice enough to let you keep your iPhone, that is. LOL.

I really love Flashlight. The light is really bright. It saved my life tonight! I live in a rural area out in the country and I live way off of the hwy. I was taking my trash out to the road and it’s too far for me to walk so I use my mobile chair to take it out there. I had a this app with me but I didn’t realize until I had already hooked up the trash can and was headed towards the hwy that my this app was going dead! Luckily I had my phone on me just before I almost went into a ditch! So I thank you Apple sooo much for putting Flashlight on my iPhone!❤️

Flashlight has saved my bacon so many times. I’ve used it to see boo-boos on my pets out in the country after dark. I’ve even used it to to read by late at night, when my husband’s sleeping. BUT, the most important use was during Hurricane Harvey, when we lost power. No power and only a small generator to keep our fridge and freezers running. I kept the phone charged on either the generator or my car and the this app app was bright and able to light up dark interior rooms way better than candles or handheld flashlights.

Awesome app for anything & everything in between!!! THANKS!!!!!! Oh also I like how much brighter it is then my clip on book light!

Yes I like how Flashlight works on my phone which works different on my other device. Still brighter then my clip on book light. Thanks again!!

Haven't gotten to see the newest update. Wanted me to send a 5 star rating before I got to see anything. At least give me a change to see what's different before u ask me to rate your app.

Still using it but not a whole lot lately. Still like using it when I do need it. I still use it when I need extra light when I'm coloring at night. Great app:)

Hi! Still love Flashlight on my phone! The only way I’ll get rid of it is if u leave & it’s not available anymore. So don’t plan on leaving anytime soon. Thanks for a awesome app:). If there was a higher rating then 5 stars then I would give u 25!

Great when you drop a wrench or a socket or something else down the engine bay. Sometimes you don’t hear a “ding” of metal hitting the shop floor when you drop a tool in an engine on accident. Great to help find missing tools and spot leaks, frayed wires, etc in dark crevices of cars. Prefer a real this app but if nothing else is handy I’ve always got my phone. Nice and bright beam coming from the light. Love the compass because I like to do off-trail hiking in the woods and it’s easy to get lost out there in the woods of the rural South. Great tool for any and everyone. Highly recommend.

This is a great app, don’t get me wrong. But, the color picker doesn’t work at all. I’m a little bit disappointed by that, but then again i have a pretty old iPhone (a 5S) and that’s not the point of Flashlight . It’s called a this app for a reason! Yes, it works great. Where I live power outages are rare but do happen every 3-6 weeks. I was unfortunately caught in one so I pulled out this this app and calmly and safely make it back to the living room in my house where me, my mom, and sister waited for the power to come back on. The this app is very bright and is over great!

I use my this app app just about every day. I have multiple plugs under my desk at home. I often unplug my laptop cord if I am going to be away. When I go to plug it back in I can hardly see way under there. How many times do you drop something in between your seats in the car? What about when you are out to dinner and drop something on the floor, or lose something in the bench seats. Walking around your home at night when you have guests everywhere. I love Flashlight!! Oh, reading menus in a dimly lite restaurant. Reading tiny print... I could go on and on!!

I never thought of this tool as something that would need a rating because I feel everyone needs and uses it. To my surprise not everyone uses this particular app. I have always used it and it has never failed me. It’s my everyday carry this app. Not only is it a this app, it will strobe at various speeds and has the capability to transmit any Morse codes you want by typing in your message and it will transmit it for you. Now I haven’t been in any situation in which I would need to do any Morse codes but I like knowing it’s there if the need should ever arise.

I love the this app app it helped my brother when he was going to the bathroom at night I gave him my phone then he asked me what am I supposed to do with this phone and I said go to the this app app and I went back asleep so when I woke up my phone was dead and I thought how did it die then I asked him and he said well I might have kinda sort of played on it for a minute that turned into a hour that turned into a night and I yelled at him and when it was my bedtime I did the same exact thing right back to him!!!!!!😆😂🤔🤭😆🤔😂🤭😆🤔😂💕😆🤔😂🥺🤭😆🥺🥺👄🤖🥺😻🍺🤟🏿🦷😡🤔😆😄🥺😄🥰🤪🧐😎✏️✏️💖💓💓🖍📝🖤💚🦆🐴🦅💕💦😋😘🧐☺️🍣🍮🥧🍔🌯🥘🍫🍜⛷🏇🏇🇬🇸🇸🇽🎤🤹🏽‍♂️🥇🎗🎫

I find Flashlight to be the most useful, most accessed app on my phone, short of the actual phone, texting, and camera!
I am hearing all sorts of horrible reports about imbedded malware in quite a few this app apps these days! Permission given to these apps to collect and use/transmit/sell personal info (cc#'s, location, ss#, etc) by accepting the privacy terms that nobody EVER reads...including me! I was very relieved and pleased to find (upon tracking down and actually reading the iHandy privacy terms) that the minimal amount of information they collect is used internally and to help in the marketing of their own apps. It's not being transmitted overseas or sold to the highest bidder!

by OliviaLivFolky

The main reason I downloaded Flashlight was because the lowest mode for the this app on my IPhone XR is to bright to read with. Once I downloaded Flashlight it made was very convenient because it was not to dim that I couldn't see anything but also not to bright that I had to squint. I also found it useful when I dropped something in the car when it's dark, because where I live the street lights aren't the most affective and my parents have trouble focusing when the light is on so I use Flashlight so the light is at a perfect level of brightness. Over all I have Flashlight a five star rating because of the in brightness you have.

Anyone who does not use the this app on their phone is missing out! I am on the border of needing readers and my husband needs readers! Well when it is time to adjust our thermostat for heating and or cooling, my husband and I carry the phone with us for the handy this app to see the thermostat for accuracy!
Since many restaurants have dim lighting it is not easy to see the menu. The this app is handy to tap on and easily put away. No fuss with glasses’ case and putting it away plus to read the menu without hesitation!
Finding where the key fits into a lock at night is another huge plus! Especially if someone is going into their home alone at night.
Enjoy this free app!!!!

What the heck, doesn’t everyone have a this app in their phone?! Honestly your just dumb for downloading Flashlight, and before you say “oh you downloaded it”, no I didn’t . It was on my phone when I got it used. iPhone 8 and it works just fine... just like the this app built into the phone. So don’t be dumb and just use that. If you don’t know how to get to your flash light then just swipe up from the bottom of your screen and press the this app button if you have an iPhone 6-8 I believe and after that you swipe from the top, so there you go, a good review from an IT man who’s father is an IT man so I’m good with technology and just saying, this is stupid. If downloaded just delete. If the this app on your phone doesn’t work then get a new phone. And yeah there’s no way you can use a different colored light on your phone. That would take a bulkier phone with extra crap that’s practically useless. So thank you for reading.
