I wish the blinking function could be turned off and just show a solid color. I use it mostly so Uber drivers can find me in a crowd, and the blinking function is a bit overkill. ### 5/5 — Practical *2017-02-04* Easy to use. Nice layout. No clutter. No name/words to type just pure color. I like the simplicity. Just wanted to ask 1 feature to be included in the setting- the strobe delay. As for me the strobe flash is too fast? If we can have a setting to adjust it so we can better see the color then it would be great! Just like some of the strobe light use by bicycles and motorcycles, the strobe can be set to slow medium and fast. ### 5/5 — Genius *2016-04-27* Family tracing Works amazingly well... ### 5/5 — Simple and stable *2016-04-18* So simple and it works. ### 1/5 — I have a flashlight *2016-04-18* There is a flashlight built into my phone, why do I need this ### 5/5 — It’s true….it actually works *2015-06-03* I cannot believe that this thing actually works. Tried it at a show last night and was definitely surprised! ### 5/5 — Love it! *2015-02-18* What a great idea! I just used it to find my boyfriend at a show last night. I'm actually surprised it works! ### 5/5 — Better *2015-02-18* I have one more idea for your super app. Create a red one that flashes help. Now a days I believe it would be very well needed. Thank you!👍 ### 3/5 — One problem, otherwise ok. *2015-02-18* The app works as advertised, however I purchased the neon color package, but the app says I did not purchase it and asks me if I want to purchase it again. If the neon color package I purchased becomes available for use I would change my review to 5 stars. ### 5/5 — Awesome. Simple. Great! *2015-02-12* Simple but genius. Use it in crowded places when trying to find friends or as a strobe when your raving. A must have app! ## Frequently asked questions about LookFor ### How does LookFor help me find friends?
