### 5/5 — Perfect app

*2026-08-16, version 2.3*

It doesn’t need updates because it works correctly and was designed brilliantly. 

Yeah, a pun.

### 1/5 — Forma de en énergie

*2026-06-26, version 2.3*

S’allume pour un oui ou pour un non et passe mes journées à contrôler et éteindre les allumages intempestifs

### 1/5 — Hi

*2026-06-17, version 2.3*

Nice

### 5/5 — The Best!

*2026-05-21, version 2.3*

I've had this flashlight on all my iPhones since March of 2013. I really like the no nonsence features.

### 1/5 — Mind of its own

*2026-02-26, version 2.3*

This app randomly turns on the flashlight to full intensity. If the phone is put ‘light down’ on the bedside table a fully charged battery will be dead by morning. This is happening all too often. My back tap is off. The app light intensity is set to the lowest point and still the light comes on full brightness while resting on a table. 👎👎

### 5/5 — Awesomeness

*2025-12-27, version 2.3*

Very nice

### 5/5 — Nice!

*2025-12-22, version 2.3*

This app is pretty good, it can be low or bright light and has everything a flashlight has+ it is easy to use!

### 5/5 — Insta-Flash💡

*2025-11-07, version 2.3*

The App came with my iPhone and I just love it cause you always have a light as long as you have your phone.

### 1/5 — Scam advertising

*2025-09-21, version 2.3*

Why does this app allow blatant scam advertisements?

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-09-18, version 2.3*

Best “flashlight” app I have used. Thank you!
