Review summary

Users appreciate this flashlight app for its simplicity, lack of ads, minimal permissions, and lightweight design. The app effectively uses the LED flash without requesting unnecessary access. However, some issues include the flashlight turning off when the phone sleeps, occasional unresponsive controls, and compatibility problems on certain devices. Users value that it does not access personal data or network, making it a trustworthy option among flashlight apps.

Pros

Simple and easy to use interface with just an on-off button.
No unnecessary or excessive permissions requested; only requires camera permission to control LED.
No advertisements, providing a clean user experience.
Lightweight app with minimal storage space usage.
Effectively turns on the LED flash for use as a flashlight.

Cons

App does not prevent the phone from going to sleep, causing flashlight to turn off unexpectedly.
Some users report the control button becoming unresponsive after toggling multiple times.
On some devices (e.g. Nexus 5), the app does not work as expected.
Requires the app to be fully closed to regain camera functionality due to disruption caused by app.

2014-03-16	A *****	I like this app for its simplicity and absense of ads, but it has some issues. #1 - If I press to switch the light on and off a few times, the button "breaks" and will no longer control my LED. #2 - The app does not prevent my phone from going to sleep which causes the light to go out. This is often very annoying.
