Ratings and reviews

It does what you want it to do without any hassle. Thank you to the developer. I personally used this while I was kayaking on the Hudson at night. I set this to blink at a specific frequency so I have a light on my kayak for other boats to see. Very little battery usage. It gives you the option to choose the rate of flash with frequency or flash per minute (FPM). It also let's you choose how long of a pause in between flashes you want and how long you want each flash to be.

The first thing I see when I open the app is the app requesting that they share my data with 197 different companies. It's a flashlight app. (Reply to dev: the problem is not that you ask. The problem is that you feel the need to have such complex ads in so simple an app. There are plenty of alternative ad-free torch apps that don't harvest my data.)

I was looking for an app that would use the camera flash to strobe in the case if emergency. This app is perfect for that, it even has an SOS strobe. The only thing I didn't like is that it sends notifications when the app is in use but that is easy enough to turn off in Android settings. The only thing that would make this any better would to also have the option to turn on a siren as well.
