User Reviews

Users generally praise Flash alert as fast, reliable, and easy to use, with appreciation for customizable flash counts and usefulness for calls/messages. However, several reviews report reliability problems: flashing can be intermittent or fail to trigger, and it may flash without any notification. Requests include brightness control on Android 13+ and fewer DND/purchase frictions. Overall sentiment is positive but users want improved stability and added features.

Pros

Reliable and effective flashing for notifications/calls
Customizable flash patterns (number of flashes)
Easy to use with a generally positive experience
Works well with common notifications (e.g., WhatsApp, calls)

Cons

Inconsistent or intermittent flashing; sometimes it does not flash
Unwanted flashing even when there are no notifications or triggers
Missing brightness control on Android 13+ (feature request)
Purchase/ DND-related friction and occasional access issues

Recent reviews

while the app is using the flash to notify about a new notification, it turns on native notification for flashlight in the now bar and the top left side of the screen. is there a option to don't trigger the phone flashlight notification? but otherwise the app is awesome, good job

Flash alert keeps on flashing when I have an alarm on my "Alarm Plus Millenium" although I set it in the disabled apps in the settings. I even did clear Flash alert's cache, but it doesn't help. For that reason I give Flash alert only 2 stars, sorry!
