Ratings and reviews

Works like a charm! I have used this one several phones now and love it every time. Have never had any real problems with it. FYI when you install the app if puts an icon on your screen. This is not the widget though on most phones that button will not do anything. You have to put the widget on your screen the same way you install other widgets on your phone. (Usually a long press on an empty part of the screen will bring up the options to add widgets)

This is a must have app. Allows you to set up a flashlight button widget directly on your home screen so you don't have to fiddle around looking though other apps to access your flashlight.... aka one button click to turn it on. No ads. This is exactly what I needed. Wish there were more apps which focus on value first... good job guys.

Best flashlight ever. NO ads at all! And unlike all other flashlight apps I have tried this Ine works directly from the widget and does not bring up a new screen that you have to get rid of to see other icons for other stuff like messages or phone. Used this for few years on my old phone. Got new phone and thought to rate it now since I realize it is so much better. Thanks to the developer.
