## Description

Need your flashlight RIGHT NOW? Just flick your wrist!<br><br>ShakeLight turns your phone&#39;s flashlight on and off with a single quick motion — no fumbling with your lock screen, no swiping through menus, no opening apps. Just flick your wrist and your light is on. Instantly.<br><br>Dead simple to use<br>One clean interface. One motion. That&#39;s it. The service starts automatically when the app is first opened — ShakeLight runs quietly in the background, ready the moment you need light. You don&#39;t even need to turn on your screen.<br><br>Works the way YOU hold your phone<br>Adjustable shake sensitivity lets you dial in the perfect setting for your device and your grip. Whether you prefer a firm chop or a gentle flick, ShakeLight adapts to you.<br><br>4 bonus flashlight modes<br>- Toggle: Tap to turn the light on or off<br>- Hold: Press and hold for temporary light<br>- Strobe: Fast flashing strobe light<br>- SOS: International Morse code distress signal<br><br>Supports older devices<br>ShakeLight works on Android 7.0 and up — that&#39;s nearly a decade of Android devices supported. If your phone has a flashlight, ShakeLight can probably run on it.<br><br>Ads that don&#39;t get in your way<br>Minimal ads and no ads on startup like many other apps on the market. No video ads you&#39;re forced to watch to use the normal functions of the app and you&#39;ll rarely need to open it since ShakeLight works in the background.<br><br>Want zero ads? Go Pro for just $4.99<br>A one-time purchase removes all ads forever. No subscriptions, no recurring charges — cheaper than most flashlight apps that charge monthly.
