### 1/5 — It is far from a good app

*2026-08-04*

It is not suitable for testing emergency lights . First problem is that you cannot even reverse the camera so you can make a picture with the light which you are measuring ( how do you prove that the light is the one you are testing if you cannot place the phone  on the illuminated surface?) . 

Second, you cannot create an emergency lighting certificate ( which I hoped it was in the app) . A completion certificate.

No offence but the developer should work together with a competent professional to better understand the process of testing a light. 

I was so enthusiastic about this and i have paid the yearly subscription of £25 which i honestly regret.

All the best
