I can’t believe you have ads that pop up and shut off the flashlight leaving me in the pitch dark. If I ever get hurt you will hear from my lawyer ### 2/5 — Don’t like it on the screen *2025-01-31, version 2.3.9* Don’t like how the light is on the screen it may be different on other devices but on my device it’s on the screen ### 4/5 — good *2024-11-24, version 2.3.9* i just got the app because my ipad doesn’t support flashlight, however, i don’t like how whenever you click the screen, the flashlight just dissapears, but overall very good light and i can see things from afar ### 1/5 — Junk *2020-03-14, version 2.1.5* Junk ### 4/5 — Flash light *2020-02-28, version 2.1.3* Don’t like the noise ### 3/5 — Poor interface *2020-02-11, version 2.1.3* Interface is a mess of various elements most of which have no connection with a flashlight. Takes too many taps to get to fast strobe effect. Doesn’t save setting. ### 2/5 — User interface *2020-01-06, version 2.1.3* User interface too awkward to use. ### 4/5 — Ok *2019-12-28, version 2.1.3* This is Okay ### 5/5 — Great App *2019-11-11, version 2.1.3* Works very well. ### 5/5 — Dr. Who may blush. *2019-10-16, version 2.1.3* For reals. Dr. Who may blush. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Garbage ads everywhere *2026-02-27, version 2.3.9* Nonfunctional just charge me ### 1/5 — Nope. *2022-10-27, version 2.3.7* Interrupting any and all things I want to use alongside. Garbage. ### 1/5 — Don’t like it *2021-11-02, version 2.3.0* It only lights up my screen! ### 1/5 — Bad App *2021-10-12* Very Bad app not nice waste app I deleted this app after downloading only waste don’t ever download flash will come on screen please please don’t download in iPad please ### 1/5 — Bad *2021-08-28* Tour h is blinking ### 1/5 — Flashlight *2021-06-27, version 2.2.6* It doesn’t work properly I’m not sure if it’s just my iPad but it doesn’t do it on the thing u take ur photos on the screen just becomes white and there is no point of it I would rate it a 0/5 but it makes u rate it ### 1/5 — No *2020-11-25, version 2.1.9* It is a good strobe app but it uses your camera even when your not in the camera section. Privacy please. ### 1/5 — Quase. *2020-09-07* Primeiros segundos de uso: foi great! o brilho se tornou maior do que o LED original do iPhone 11 Pro Max.😃 Mas logo depois ficou num brilho muito baixo. Nao consegui repetir o feito. Logo: instável. Se fosse consistente, com certeza do uso, seria fivestar. Mas não é 👎🏼 . ### 1/5 — Doesn’t strobe. *2020-08-09, version 2.1.5* Flashes on and off with equal timing, not strobing. ### 1/5 — Not bright enough iPhone X *2020-04-21, version 2.1.5* My flashlight is brighter on its own ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2024-11-12, version 2.3.9* This app is the best. I’ve had it for a while the fact that it can take quality pictures and you can see things clearly is helpful. I use it (for example) to take photos of inflammation in my throat, or problems with my teeth..you can even zoom in to get a closer view ### 5/5 — I like this app *2023-07-28, version 2.3.9* I like this app please keep updating it a lot more & keep upgrading the app a lot more. ### 5/5 — flash *2023-05-19, version 2.3.9* good for when youre at parties and the djs playing high tempo music and someones dancing🤣🤣 ### 5/5 — This is the best *2023-02-04, version 2.3.9* 1000000000srar ### 5/5 — Bright light *2021-03-11, version 2.2.4* Helped me get out of some pretty dark places! ### 5/5 — Brute lite! *2021-01-29, version 2.2.2* Very bright and easy to use. ### 5/5 — They actually tried *2020-09-19, version 2.1.5* I had an iPad Air 2, which doesn’t have a hardware flashlight. But instead of doing nothing and just getting you to turn on notifications, they actually light up the screen. Even though that is less effect, they still tried to give their users a flashlight. Five stars, as this is easily something they could have ignored. ### 5/5 — Wow *2020-02-23, version 2.1.3* Good sos ### 5/5 — Flashlight *2020-02-07, version 2.1.3* Very bright, simple, what is needed ### 5/5 — Perfect. Change nothing. *2020-01-11, version 2.1.3* Love this!!! It’s bright. You can change the speed of the strobe and the brightness of the light. It’s great for late night walks. You can see the strobe light off a stop sign half a mile ahead. It also allows you to open your camera with that high flash. This is how an app is supposed to be. It does what it advertises, no adds, and helps add safety to night time events/ and or emergencies.
