I would have given five stars if, like some others said, it would continue while having your phone screen off. But still a great app and for sure worth getting! ### 4/5 — Addictive *2016-03-22, version 1.21* I sat in my darkroom on fast speed playing with shadows ### 3/5 — App works link at bottom is shady *2015-12-25, version 1.21* The app strobes the light and works fine. 3 stars because there is a link at the bottom that says click to see the source code. When you click it it takes you to a site that pops up a message that says your phone is infected and to call a number. The number is a scam. You have to click the link a few times before you get this site as it goes to a different site each time. I am surprised apple allowed this through. ### 3/5 — Frequency is not stated *2015-11-16, version 1.21* Nice strobe from Slow to Fast, but the frequency is not stated so you can't do much quantitative with it. ### 4/5 — I strobe *2015-09-21, version 1.21* I upgraded to iOS 9 and it appears that the app no longer functions. It opens ok but no longer flashes or illuminates at all. Does shutdown normally. Not sure if it is just me or iOS 9. ### 4/5 — Good app *2015-05-03, version 1.21* I like utilitarian apps, so this was right up my alley. It is undoubtedly the best strobe light app out there. The adjustable speed feature is really nice, and it is also very simple to use. The only problem I have, and the reason it got 4 stars, is that the light quit flashing when your phone goes to sleep. I used this to slow down traffic one night at the scene of an accident, and this was a real pain. Otherwise, love the app!!! ### 5/5 — Bruh needs a title *2015-01-20, version 1.21* This is honestly the best strobe light app I have ever downloaded!!! Awesome!!!! ### 4/5 — What I was looking for! *2014-11-26, version 1.21* I love this app, I was planning to make a mini haunted house but no apps worked until I found this app I really recommend it is really fun, helpful and easy. ### 5/5 — Does what it says *2014-04-21, version 1.21* It works like it says (iPhone 5s) ### 5/5 — Awesome. 😄 *2014-03-29, version 1.21* This flash light works great! Thank you Nick! 😌 ### 3/5 — Works well but dev link not working *2013-12-30, version 1.21* Works well but I cannot get the developer link to work ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No work *2017-11-20, version 1.21* Ios11 no work ### 1/5 — Boring and simple *2017-05-27, version 1.21* All this app is about is flashing multiple speeds of the same color add different colors and rhythms and patterns please ### 1/5 — Needs Updates *2017-03-20, version 1.21* "PLEASE!" update more often. ### 1/5 — Useless if it stops after a couple of min. *2016-10-18, version 1.21* I need it to stay on for 10 min. Fix it and I'll giver it 5 starts. ### 1/5 — Not cool asking for camera access! *2015-05-10, version 1.21* The app wants camera access but works without it. There is no excuse for an app like this to need camera access. Is it spying on you? I have uninstalled this app. Tired of all the spyware! ### 1/5 — Ad scam *2014-11-13, version 1.21* Works great, but after a while it triggers your safari app to redirect to a million ad pages until safari freezes. My assumption is people review it before the app eventually triggers the ads. I didn't not trigger until several openings of the app. ### 2/5 — It's ok :/ *2016-08-13, version 1.21* The speed of the strobe is great but the brightness isn't. I downloaded "iLights flashlight free" and I'd swear it's 2x brighter. ### 2/5 — Why does it request camera access? *2015-01-02, version 1.21* First time I ran the app, the flash started strobing, but it requested access to the camera. Why does a flashlight app need the camera? It works fine without it. Not as if it's adjusting the brightness based on ambient light level. I can only assume someone is trying to spy on my rave parties and watch me use the app. Beware security risk and cover your cameras with electrical tape! ### 2/5 — Please fix this problem! *2014-01-28, version 1.21* The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because every time my phone goes to sleep the strobe light turns off! What's the point if it can't stay on? ### 2/5 — Turn off your screen (or it times out)? No more strobe... *2013-09-27, version 1.21* The functionality is fine except that the strobe stops when the phones screen is off... ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Please update app *2017-11-08, version 1.21* for us with newest iphone versions its impossible to use this app if you dont update it to IOS 11 ### 5/5 — Hi *2017-10-08, version 1.21* Need update for IOS 11.2 for flash /strobe light ### 5/5 — Update? *2017-09-21, version 1.21* Any chance this can be updated for iOS 11? No other strobe apps I've seen do the same effect. ### 5/5 — Very Fast *2017-07-20, version 1.21* Fastest strobe I've ever sent for IPhone, Caution when using since I got a extremely painful headache for 20 seconds of using it at the max ### 5/5 — Super fun! *2017-04-09, version 1.21* Nice app! Please update it to work with future IOS updates! ### 5/5 — Asswipe *2017-01-15, version 1.21* It's was a great app excepted for the fact that I I have epilepsy so I died 3 days ago and now I have to go to the bathroom but I can't Bc of I'm a ghost so yea please don't get If you have dyslexia 4,000,000/10 ### 5/5 — Great don't look at the pay attention to the reviews that just want to find problems *2017-01-01, version 1.21* All those that say it's a scam is a load of dog crap. Don't let those people who feel like they need to find a problem steer you away ### 5/5 — Perfect *2015-11-13, version 1.21* It's it's the best phone strobe light!!!! I love it it's just like the ones from a store except on your phone definitely get this app!!! ### 5/5 — Best strobe light on App Store *2015-02-15, version 1.21* I was blown away by how well this app worked. Very bright and very effective! ### 5/5 — Actually works *2015-02-13, version 1.21* I didn't expect it to work --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
