### 4/5 — Good but....

*2012-12-10, version 1.5*

I think there should be an option to increase the display brightness completely as the app is opened.

### 4/5 — quite good

*2012-05-05, version 1.4.1*

its quite good but i think its too bright

### 2/5 — Mmmmm.....

*2011-10-21, version 1.4.1*

Don't really see the point.

### 2/5 — Nice icon but…

*2011-10-16, version 1.4.1*

Nice springboard icon but actual in-app design is really sub-standard. Other than that it's your common or garden LED torch app knocked together in a couple of hours so the developer can make a few quid from iAds.

### 4/5 — Torch

*2011-10-15, version 1.4.1*

This torch is brilliant especially when at night fishing but it switches off when the phone locks itself :) :/

### 3/5 — Kind of stupid

*2011-08-09, version 1.4*

I got this for my iPad because I really needed a flashlight, but I found this app unhelpful and pretty useless. I'm going to erase this and try another flashlight app

### 3/5 — hmm

*2011-07-25, version 1.3.1*

idk about iphone but on my ipod the screen goes white and acts as flashlight but it doesnt really fit the purpose.. if u have ipod it wont be that much necessary..

### 4/5 — Alright and useful

*2011-05-08, version 1.3.1*

Good for when the power goes out, but it is backwards and just as bright as the close-up of the normal screen. Worth the price (harhar) yet it will become one of those apps that just sit on your screen. :):(:|:|:|:|

### 5/5 — It's good

*2011-01-31, version 1.3.1*

But the stone slider is like, backwards, and when u slide it, it turns the strobe off

### 5/5 — Yes!

*2011-01-23, version 1.3.1*

I love whoever made this. Loving the strobe setting. And for free!? You sir, are a legend.

### 5/5 — It Really Works!!

*2010-12-27, version 1.3.1*

This is totally amazing! I tried it and it works like a real flashlight! Thanks!! it's totally worth getting it! :)

### 1/5 — Nope

*2013-01-26, version 1.5*

:( 0.0

### 1/5 — Used to be good

*2012-10-23, version 1.5*

This is no longer the simple "ad-free" app that I used to like. More options than needed and  unwanted ads. 

Shame developers, shame.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2012-06-26, version 1.4.1*

Ok why wast your time buying this!its just a white screen! All screens are like this!

### 1/5 — ??

*2012-06-07, version 1.4.1*

Errrrrr

### 1/5 — Doesn't work with iPod touch

*2012-01-22, version 1.4.1*

I still can't find a flashlight app that uses the LED on an iPod touch.

### 1/5 — Shameful

*2011-09-02, version 1.4*

Light works ok. Strobe slider is backwards from normal operation. Strobe slider only updates light after turning light off & on again. App was obviously programmed by a child.

### 1/5 — This is dumb.

*2011-04-12, version 1.3.1*

It's not a flashlight it give off the same lighting that ur device does without the app lol ...anyone who says 5 star...great app...works great is dumb lol.
Come on people get real.

### 1/5 — Why

*2010-11-12, version 0*

Why Did you update it? It was better before update!

### 2/5 — Ad supported.

*2012-11-20, version 1.5*

Nice light app, but is ad supported, with no way to pay to get rid of them.

### 2/5 — Ok

*2012-11-02, version 1.5*

Not the best flash light which is the reason I deleted it . It's a flash light on the screen not on the back .

### 5/5 — I like this

*2014-07-01, version 1.5*

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.

### 5/5 — GREAT!!!

*2013-03-10, version 1.5*

I use it for reading books thnx for this great app!

### 5/5 — Perfect for the iPhone 5's taller display

*2012-10-26, version 1.5*

Keep it up!

### 5/5 — iLights

*2012-09-27, version 1.4.1*

Amazing Special Mirror

### 5/5 — Front page

*2012-06-12, version 1.4.1*

I keep it on front page it's as usefull as your maps calculator  feels like stock item apple shoulda thought of this ohh and plus a mirror ....forget batteries 
Great idea and app my top 5 most useful

### 5/5 — AWESOME!!!!

*2012-05-16, version 1.4.1*

I really love this app. And it loaded in, like, 2 seconds, so i didnt have to wait. If you have an iphone 4(s), this should be the perfect app 4 u.

### 5/5 — Works great!

*2012-04-30, version 1.4.1*

It works like it should. And for all those people that are saying it doesn't work, it may be for these reasons:
-You have an iPod touch
-You have an iPhone 1, 2, or 3.  
-You don't have a LED light on your phone. 

If you have an iPhone 4, 4s, or 3G. It should work fine. And in fine I mean it should be the light on the front as bright as when you are taking a picture.

### 5/5 — Simple!

*2012-03-08, version 1.4.1*

I know what I can do with this, thanks!

### 5/5 — Awesome!!!!

*2011-04-09, version 1.3.1*

It works great!!!

### 5/5 — Cool

*2011-03-21, version 1.3.1*

Cool
