Description

From the listing uploaded by “apps”.

Press phone's Power Button 3 times within 3 seconds to start your flash / camera LED light! Now you have an real-life torch with an actual hardware button for switching the flash! Features: * Start Flashlight by pressing Power Button of device 3 times. * Stop Flashlight from Power Button (in Full version only). Or just stop it inside the app for free. * Fastest access to Flashlight - no need to unlock or even look at phone. * Works always - even if screen is off / device is asleep. * Optimized for performance and right user experience - see settings inside. * Use as regular Flashlight app if you do not like the Power Button feature. More usage info: When do you need a flashlight? You are usually in a hurry and probably in the dark, so why would you even bother searching for a Flashlight app icon?! Just press 3 times the Power / Lock Button of your phone within 3 seconds (configurable) to start the Flashlight / Torch . You should press the Power button not too quickly, if your Android device is slow, because we need to be able to register the 3 distinct presses of the button that start the flash light. With Power Flashlight you can start flashlight at any time, because it works even when your device screen is off. Now you will never look at your phone again to start the LED light! Additional features: * Auto-shutdown flashlight after a configurable period, so that it does not drain all your battery. It could take hours for the flashlight to drain all the battery, but still it is better to have this auto-shutdown function. * Vibrate when the flashlight starts, so that you are aware the flash / LED light is on, since you might hit Power button several times without the intention to start the flash light. * Disable start flashlight with Power Button function and use as regular flashlight app (not recommended)! * More flashlight settings to come... Please buy Full version (as in-app purchase) to support development! NOTE: You need to open the app at least once , so that the Power button Flashlight function is enabled! We need to make some initial setup, so please open this flashlight app after installation. NO ROOT required! NO permissions that are stealing your identity!
