About

Blinky Light

Features
Read full description

Blinky Light turns your iPhone flash into an adjustable blinking light. Choose the brightness and speed, then start your light signal with one tap. One-time purchase, with no ads, no subscription, and no data collection. The idea was born one evening in Japan. While walking home from a stadium after dark, bicycles were moving quickly along the sidewalk near pedestrians. A continuous flashlight could look like a fixed light in the distance, while a blinking light was easier to notice. Blinky Light grew from that simple idea: keeping an immediate, adjustable light signal in your pocket. Included features: • blinking iPhone flash; • adjustable speed; • adjustable brightness when supported by the device; • simple ON/OFF interface; • Apple Watch companion using the watch screen as a light signal; • no ads; • no subscription; • no data collection. Blinky Light is not designed as a conventional flashlight. It is a blinking light signal for moments when you want to be more visible or attract attention quickly.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Deerc FPV at Free against Blinky Light's $1.99. Deerc FPV also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Blinky Light's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs fortnightly). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
