Cons

  • Doesn't work with all phones

Easily turn your phone into a bright flashlight that you can use anywhere.

Torch is an app that transforms your phone into an extremely bright light. It uses the LED light from the camera that's already present instead of installing any other tools on the phone. The light from the app is quite bright, shining several feet in front of you at night. It's an ideal deterrent for those who might be walking behind you at night or if you're alone and need a flashlight for safety. You can use the light to work in small places where the things that you have to fix might be hard to see, such as under the hood of a car.

If the phone doesn't have any kind of flash for the camera, then the app will turn the screen white. The white color is bright enough to compare to a flashlight. It's almost a transparent appearance as you can still see details on the screen, but there is a haze over the images. As with many apps, there are some phones that it won't work with. Customer support is good at helping with these issues so that as many people as possible can have the light on their phone in some form or another. Another disadvantage is that the app can drain the battery as it stays running in the background even when the actual light isn't being used.

Illuminate your surroundings with the Torch application.

Torch is a simple and effective application that every Android user needs to have. It acts as a flashlight and provides illumination when it's needed most. In terms of design, the application is fairly simple. It consists of a prominent "On/Off" button positioned in the center of the screen.

With a press of the green "On" button, the LED light on the rear of the phone will turn on. Torch utilizes the built-in camera flash to provide light. The LED stays on the entire time it's initiated. Users will have bright light to improve visibility until the red "Off" button is pressed.

Turn your Android into a flashlight.

The app will allow you to have a flashlight on your phone any time it's needed. It uses the camera flash screen as the light. The light can be turned off and on like a real flashlight. All you have to do is tap on the image when you need brightness.
