I like this

I wanted a simple way to use my iPad 2 as a lantern to walk home from the pub in the dark. You can use one of the standard apps like Reminders but you run the risk of accidentally changing something by touching the screen.
This is perfect, you choose the app and the screen lights up instantly. Don't need the light anymore? Just hit the off button.
