Use the flashlight to use in the dark and to take pictures

This app consists of a simple flashlight to use in the dark. You can change the color of the light and set the brightness to your liking simply by clicking on Color and Preference buttons.

Screen light can be installed as an app (add a shortcut to your home screen for a quicker and easier use) and Camera light feature has to be installed as a widget in order to work properly. You can activate and deactivate both depending on which you prefer.

In conclusion, this useful flashlight app created by Tomoya YAMAMOTO is recommended for those who want an easy way of looking for their keys in the dark and taking pictures with their devices at night.
