Turn on/off super bright flashlight / LED / torch on your phone instantly by holding both volume buttons / keys together! It's quick, fast, innovative. It works in screen on, lock screen and screen off (when enabled from settings). Just works anytime! It makes you feel that you have a handy conventional battery operated torch with physical hardware button access! it's tiny, small, free and runs silently as a SERVICE. Absolutely no root required! This app uses Accessibility services Torchie requires a service to run in background to intercept PHYSICAL VOLUME BUTTON KEY presses. Since a normal 'Service' cannot intercept Hardware Key presses, an 'Accessibility Service' is needed for this purpose. It does not do anything apart from intercepting Volume Key presses! I promise! TORCHIE IS OPEN SOURCE NOW!

Alas! It's threatening isn't it? Torchie needs permission to listen to your physical hardware (volume Button) Key presses only. However if a phone has a physical keyboard, it is possible to intercept every key press (including Passwords etc). But, recent Android phones (except Blackberry Priv) have only three hardware physical keys i.e. one power button and two volume buttons. Actually, It is Android's flaw showing this buggy permission to you! https://github.com/anselm94/Torchie-Android/wiki/FAQs Also, Torchie does not have 'Internet Permission'. So it's impossible to send anything to anyone! Torchie's source code is available here https://github.com/anselm94/Torchie-Android. You can go through every line of code!

(On Android 11, Pixel 4a) I can not think of any app more essential to install for the vast majority of phone models than this. The simultaneous-volume button shortcut works 95% percent of the time, and if not you just hit your lock button once and it will work right after anyways. Absolutely love it, it's become muscle memory and I can turn on the light at a moment's notice. Definitely donating!

There's a glitch with smart watches (Or at least the 1st Gen Galaxy Active 40mm watches) where the watch detects Torchie as music, and this makes notifications on the watch stop showing. I love this app but I had to stop using it because of this issue. Hopefully it can be fixed soon.

This is exactly what I've always looked for. It has always bothered me how it takes so long to turn on the flashlight for Androids. And it's free and doesn't have adds!

Very nice way of assigning the volume buttons as macro for thw flashlight. The problem is it doesn't work reliably and I find myself having to squeeze the 2 buttons several times with no result
Stephen Lamley
Would have been 4 or 5 star it only works in the lockscreen although you can turn it off if the lockscreens. Not on. Which is probably written somewhere, im a man we don't read s$#t, and it turns itself off on occasion illl give it 4 stars as the first point is probably my fault. Very handy app
Stephen Doxsee
Wow. Works perfectly for me with screen off and proximity sensor works. When screen I off it also doesn't mess up the volume. I actually prefer it to OnePlus gesture...which I was looking to replicate

very brilliant application for android users. easy to use. no problem so far. good job 👍

The app is nicely made and easy to use, but the shortcut doesn't work about 25% of the time, at least in the android 12 beta. It seems to work more reliably when the screen is off, but still not 100%.

Well I would ignore this app and this is why: This app is very simple. I mean if you had added some more features like torch on off type(vol up down simultaneously, vol up double press, vol up press hold, vol down double press, vol down press hold and as for the power button) and also a hold delay setting option. I now need an app to torch on/off all similar to this app but just with volume down double press.

I've used this app happily on many Android devices. However, when I installed it on my Nokia 6.1 (Android 9), I discovered that it won't function with the screen on and the phone unlocked. It still works when the screen is off, and on the lock screen, but not when the device is unlocked. Maybe the recent fix for Android 9 devices has something to do with this glitch? I look forward to seeing this issue get fixed, which would bump my review to five stars because otherwise this app rocks!
