Features & Capabilities

Flash Alerts 2 is a powerful Chrome extension that enables your device's flash to blink whenever you receive a phone call, SMS text, or app notification. Originally launched in 2013, it offers increased convenience and accessibility, especially helpful for users with disabilities.

Key features include customizable blinking frequency, detailed ON/OFF settings, and flash alerts triggered by status bar notifications. The extension ensures privacy by not storing or transmitting your information and requires accessibility service permissions to function properly. The Pro version adds capabilities like controlling flash alerts based on device status (ring, vibrate, silent) and scheduling Do Not Disturb periods.

Make sure the free Flash Notifier works on your device to ensure compatibility. For best results, enable accessibility features and configure app-specific alerts. Avoid conflicts by not running similar flash notification apps concurrently.
