MyLite LED Flashlight & Strobe Light for iPhone and iPod - Free for Negative User Reviews

Features RemovedI loved this app for all of the great extra modes, like lighter, color in motion, etc. now all of that is gone. It just has the camera flash flashlight. You can't even turn the screen white anymore. It used to be a great app but now I'm very unhappy. In the past update you discussed the outcry for the removal of the lighter so it was returned. I hope again you can return all the great features. Then I'll increase the rating..Version: 3.1

Bummer.This used to be one of the most useful apps on my iPhone, but a gradual stripping away of features has now reduced it to delete-worthy status. As soon as I finish submitting this review, I'm heading to the App Store to replace it. Way to ruin a great thing: take away everything that made it great (LED flashlight, SOS signal, lighter simulator)..Version: 3.2

Not badVery useful while I am coming back to home at the middle of nite. however, it would be better if I could adjust the flash brightness apart from screen bright..Version: 0

OopsI used this app a lot on my apple 3G but then they made it so you head to have an LED light on your phone, bad news. In this age af upgrades sometimes you don't have to. It was a good product why spoil it..Version: 3.1

Not as good as it originally wasThe first version of this was the best. You used to be able to pick from several different options, like the lighter for encores or the strobe effect, but it's very basic now. I hate it when developers start out with something good and then strip it down where it's almost not worth the disk space..Version: 3.2

Screw the adsThis was a great little utility until the latest update brought ads into the picture. When ads appear, it's time to move on to greener pastures..Version: 0

OkayyWe used this for a low budget rave, glow in the dark parties and black out parties. The light is bright and looks good in pitch blackness, but I was sad after finding out there was no way to have it flash all the colours. You could only pick one at a time. We had multiple phones and iPods but it still would've been better if it had a multi colour option that goes with the strobe..Version: 3.2

Needs an extra feature...I think it should have an effect where you can choose your own colours to switch to the colours you choose in the order you want. Or maybe fireworks and a sparkler like the concert one..Version: 0

Miss old versionSo bummed. When I got my new phone I couldn't remember the name of this app and all the others I tried didn't measure up. Finally found it only its not anything like the app I remember. I can't figure out how to turn on the actual flashlight, and I miss all the fun modes (I too liked the silly lighter). Please revert back to the previous version, you'll get 5 stars if you do!.Version: 3.2

Groovy!!The multi colour auto changy thingy is fully sick. Description matches the app. Best thing is it's free. Plus, can help find that 1 dead pixel too!.Version: 0

Just deleted this app after an updateI had this app and thought it was quite good. Just loaded an update for it. Now, the application forces you to wait through a title splash page which you can't bypass or turn off. The developer _added_ a splash page and this is why it's being deleted from my device. If I can't get the rock concert lighter effect up immediately, it's no good to me. To all app developers: Don't put title splash pages in your apps that you can't turn off. Apple doesn't make _you_ sit through a title page every time you want to place a call or listen to music. Nobody cares about an ad for yourself every time they start your app..Version: 0

Nothing specialI don't really get it. Its just a flash light! That's it...nothing more, nothing less..Version: 2.6

Crashed my itouchAfter installing the app and pressing the icon the screen flickered and the itouch started to reboot this took twice as long than normal than a normal reboot . After that I tried to change my settings . After clicking the settings icon the screen changed but none of the options came up. I had to restore . I could just be unlucky but beware ..Version: 0

This is not an upgrade but a downgradeI'm very disappointed. If I would've knew I would've not upgrade. Bring back previous features please..Version: 3.0

I Don't Upgrade This App AnymoreThey really messed it up when they removed all the cool features. I deleted the update off my phone and then synced it to my computer so it would put the original version back on my phone. Now I wish I could stop getting prompted for an update for this app !.Version: 3.2

LameThere's nothing revolutionary about this. The author couldn't even do some nice gradient color transitions or some subtle 2D trippy effects? Why not bust out some OpenGL for added fun. myLite is a waste of time..Version: 0

I'm not the only one with this problemAre the people who take care of this app reading the reviews? The light is only shining on the front of the phone. It's completely useless now and there isn't a self explanatory way of making the light shine in the flash area of the phone. Fix it! I'm getting ready to delete this app..Version: 3.2

Thank you.You restored this app's ability to be used on my iPod. Still lacks old feature functionality, but at least it works. By the way, developers… removing features is never a step forward..Version: 3.2

Great, but...I've always wished there was an easier way to turn on my iPhone's flashlight, so this a great app, and I would give it 5 stars, but "auto-on at start-up" seldom works. So it's just a LITTLE bit easier to turn the flashlight on..Version: 3.2

Destroyed by developerLike so many developers this one decided to destroy a very good app. Now just a POS. I'm sure any rating above 1 star is from someone who didn't have the older version. And from version descriptions you'd never know they destroyed their app. Based on their history you should also run away from any others of this developer's apps..Version: 3.2

Bug???Bug in this app, It crashes my iPhone when I try to use it sometimes. Others it don't load And sometimes it works fine..Version: 0

Forgot the best featuresDon't really need this app. anymore. I have a flashlight that works a whole lot better. They need to bring back all features they to leave in this update. New features for light are alright but my grand kids now think the app. is broken..Version: 3.1

It's good. It's free.Another program you'll almost never need to use, but is free and does what it says it does. And, I said "almost", which means one day it will come in handy..Version: 0

Latest update is a downgradeI used to love this app. It's functionality as a flashlight was only the tip of the iceberg in its overall utility. The color strobe and, most notably, the lighter utensil made this app stand out from other, lame flashlight apps. Since the removal of these features, this app is just one of those dime a dozen worthless crapps that do little more than eat up hard drive. Bring back the old features or lose your users to competitors..Version: 3.2

There is a better FlashlightGet "Light" instead. This app does not increase the backlight to full power like "Light" does so you end up with a dim flashlight - and why would you want a dim flashlight? You might as well just open up "contacts" and use that if you want dim. Not a bright idea..Version: 0

Keeps crashingAll the new features from the update are really cool, including an image of a lighter and flame for concerts, but it keeps crashing and freezing up my iPod and I have to wait for the battery to die before I can use it again!.Version: 0

Not bright at allI went to turn the torch on but it turn out that it was already on so that is how dim it is so really crap..Version: 3.2

CplxAvoid. in app ads..Version: 3.2

Ok😳The lights are ok..Version: 3.2

Useful but Could be BetterVersion 1.0 was okay, Version 1.1 rocked because of the extra options and the ability to remember options. Version 1.4 (current one) takes a step back with a startup screen. Startup screens are pretty lame; on the other hand, it's a free app so the app developer deserves to get recognition somehow..Version: 0

The best availableI've seen a lot of people complaining about all these flashlights and how you could just get a white photo. I totally agree and don't think any of them are worth paying for. However, if you DO want a flashlight, this is definitely the one! It's so simple....and includes a few good features that, sure you won't 'need' to use them, but they're free right? You can change the colour of the light from a choice of 13 colours. Can change the brightness. Can make it into a strobe light and set it to 'Trippin' (changing colours). The Strobe and Trippin' light effects can be changed to have them change at longer intervals (0.1 secs up to 0.5 secs)..Version: 0

Wish I didn't update this!!I am so mad that I updated this app. It used to have so many neat features & now it is just a flashlight. Who ever decided to take away the features should be FIRED!! Doesn't even deserve a star now & before the update I gave it a 5 star rating!.Version: 3.1

Rubbish since UpgradeThis was a great simple app until the upgrade. Now it no longer works effectively - a shame.Version: 3.2

Great help In the darkGood app but why did u take away the lighter? Why would I want 2 apps when I can have 1? Bad move :( suggestion: - the screen automatically turns off after a certain amount of time (if the screen is not being used) and since when using this app you do not touch the screen, it would be good if mylite was exempt from this..Version: 0

DIE CREATORDONT BUY APP SUCKS😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡👿👿👿👿👿👺👺👺👺👂💪🎀.Version: 3.2

Disappointing upgradeI used this app only for the concert lighter feature and now it's gone. Now all this app does is pretty much what my phone can do by turning on the camera light through the camera app. I guess there is no reason to keep this app on my phone anymore. Why doapp why?.Version: 3.2

Why remove all the functionality?All the options for using the screen as a light have been removed in the latest update which is something I relied on for many years. Will now look for an alternative app. Very disappointing..Version: 3.1

Crap Update - AVOIDThis update removes virtually all previous functions including SOS. Even worse, there are permanently displayed ads at the bottom of the screen. Furthermore, for reasons best known to themselves, the developers now insist on IOS6. So, contrary to the App description, it cannot be used on an iPad if it is an iPad 1 as we cannot install IOS6. Obviously, the developers are NOT supporting their customers and should be avoided, including any other Apps that they may release, as they cannot be trusted to support their customers. These are ALL reasons to avoid this useless update!!! One star is one too many!.Version: 3.0

UselessNot bright. Not intuitive..Version: 3.2

Update ruined this appI loved this app before. I liked all the features it had, better then a lot of the other light apps out there. But then they went and updated the app and took away most of the features, leaving only the LED flashlight. Bad move, wish I could give it a 0 star rating. 💩🚽.Version: 3.2

Used to be greatWhat happened to the lighter? No longer intuitive and no explanation for the new controls. Flashlight is still handy if you can figure out how to make it work. Change it back!!.Version: 3.2

Very Disappointed - DON'T UPDATE!I loved the classic version, however entirely disappointed after updating this app! New interface lacks most of the classic features: flame lighter is gone, text strobe is gone, alternating color strobe is gone, etc. Essentially a worthless basic flashlight now. :(.Version: 3.2

:)It tooke a little while to work out how it worked but then after like two seconds of staring at a white screen I figures out that you had to press it to get the options up haha. I love this it's simple yet brilliant :D well done to Mr/Mrs creator ;).Version: 0

BoredI got this app and I thought it would be fun but when I first used it it was so boring. I looked at the pictures and I saw something that had colors on it so I thought I would be able to change the colors of the light. I tried to get it to change the colors but it wouldn't. I can still use it as a flashlight but not to change colors. I wouldn't recommend having this app and that is why I'm rating this app one star..Version: 3.2

After 10 mins, your boredI mean the effects are ok for 10 mins then after that all there is to do is turn on the lighter when you listen to a live rock album lol.Version: 0

No lighterWithout the lighter this app is no different than any other flashlight app.Version: 3.2

What did you do?????Used to be a great app and all the functionality that made it fun is gone. Going to have to look for another app now. Newest update brought back a couple of things, but nowhere near as cool or as useful as it used to be before the last update. Wish I'd never updated after the last one, and this one didn't help much either. Guess I'll have to go looking for another app if you're not going to fix this one..Version: 3.2

Gets worse & worseUsed to be simple & useable. Now complicated & mystifying. I just want a reliable torch but I can't stop going into flashing lights, dark colours or it going off completely. What rubbish!.Version: 3.2

Plzz fixI don't kno what to do.. It saids my iPod doesn't have LED. But my iPod is a 4th generation so I don't understand. Plzz this is the only thing I need cause f the utilities and stuff for my school project ( singing ) I download it before and it was great but now.... It just doesn't work.Version: 3.0

So soThe ads are quite annoying but the fast flashlight is cool.Version: 3.2

Git reset --hard???Did a previous version accidentally get released? This is useless now without the camera light. The screen light is not sufficient to provide reading light - especially if one likes to keep the screen brightness low, as I do. Deleting & picking up something that actually works..Version: 3.2

Where'd the features go?Weird that they stripped all the features out of this app. I miss the caution flare, SOS signal, et cetera. I shouldn't have updated. Guess I'll go find another app now. Hopefully a developer adds these back sooner or later, but I already found another app to use so I probably won't be back. Removing features was a dumb move, guys..Version: 3.2

Keeps crashingSuch a nice idea. Pity it often freezes my phone when I try to use it. And the full screen ad at start up gets a little tiring. Will be a good app when the bugs are fixed..Version: 0

HandyA usefull application with strong light..Version: 0

Used to be 4 starsIt had cooler options before the am update, usually updates improve performance but this one didn't. It needs an S.O.S function in addition to restoring the previous functionality.Version: 3.2

Why do great ideas always get ruinedWas the best flashlight App until they added banners. This has ruined the App because you constantly are activating the banner which loads your web browser and cancels the App. Too bad. There are lots of other Apps without interfering banners..Version: 2.6

Thank God it's free!I think all the light apps are not of much use & im sure many others agree. The light just aint bright enough. The max strength of the regular backlight is even better off. Not withstanding this one is the best of them all. I wouldn't have paid for it though..Version: 0

Was great, now it's notThis used to be one of the best flashlight apps around. I've had it for years and with so many features it couldn't be beat. Now it's as lame as all the others in the store. I've had this app for years, but now it's time to find a replacement..Version: 3.2

Wish I didn't hit "update"I updated the app not too long ago and noticed it has significantly changed. If was a simple app with many features, now is a simple app with a few features. May look for something else..Version: 3.2

SadThis app used to be great, now it's just a sad shadow of its former great self, now on the hunt for an app that is more like this one used to be. Disappointed. Worst "update" ever!!! No white screen, won't work on older iPads like it did before. Now a crap app..Version: 3.1

Not RecommendedIn two instances I had to reboot my phone (3G/2.1) Not recommended unless you really need to have some colour strobes at a club..Version: 0

Improved but still a downgrade from the originalYes the new LED control feature is nice, but that should have been in addition to the app or a new app. I had chosen this app over others for all of the features that were removed. I chose this app for the ability for color cycling, concert mode, general flexibility over other light apps. Looks like I will once again be looking for a new light app even though the control with the new interface is slick..Version: 3.2

HooooribleThis app is horrible, it messed up my iPod, when I would press the home button, it wouldn't work, I hate this app, full of bugs.Version: 0

BloatedOne of the first apps I ever installed, i was happy... Then they added a splash screen. And stuff that pops up when you accidentally touch the screen. Now with the latest update it prompted me for my location. Location. On a flashlight app. Yeah, right. So I went and found Just Light, which does exactly that - just light, no splash, no annoying accidental menu, no location request. I recommend uninstalling, there are heaps of better, less bloated light apps..Version: 0

😞It's a bit crap really!.Version: 3.2

Horrible after the updateThey removed many nice features with the new update. I can't understand why you decide to ruin a good app.Version: 3.0

Audio ads are a terrible ideaI liked this app. I've had it installed for a long time and I kept reinstalling it with each new device that I obtained. However, I will be uninstalling it today due to one reason: audio ads. Look, when do people generally use a flashlight app? In the dark, maybe? And is it really such a stretch to believe that when people are using a flashlight app in the dark, blaring an audio ad at them full volume is a bad idea because there just might be other people that your user is trying to not disturb? Ads are fine. I understand ad-driven apps. But lose the ads with blaring audio. That's awful..Version: 3.2

Better but still not as good as earlier versionLatest update brigs back the screen light but the 'Lighter' and 'SOS' are still missing, ads are also very annoying so now deleted and an alternative installed!.Version: 3.2

Thought I'd found the perfect flashlight...I was wrong. It's simple and does what it says. The other thing it does is make clicking sounds every time you touch a button or change a setting. No way to turn the sound effects off without flipping your phone to vibrate. If I'm already annoying people by turning on a light, the last thing I want is to further annoy them with sound effects. Nice try, though..Version: 3.2

They ruined this appThis app used to have lots of cool screen modes including "trippin" which I loved. The latest update wiped that all out. I used to give this app five stars and now it gets one unless they restore all the good stuff they removed..Version: 3.1

BrokenThe load screen displays for 10 seconds then me to the home screen. I just got spammed and ended up wasting time..Version: 0

UselessDon't get it as it will become useless when you can't update your iPad as apple says so, so now i have a useless app that will get deleted as i can't update anymore. Make it backwards compatible. So i need 6.1 on my iPad, but I am locked out from updating, so in reality this ipad will become useless. Not sure about apples long term plans for products, three years is what it takes for products to become a paper weight..Version: 3.2

Where did the decent flashlight app go?There used to be a great Flashlight application that turned your screen brightness to max when you opened it, and back to the level you had it at when you exited. It just disappeared off the appstore - what happened to it? All the other Flashlight apps are useless in comparison..Version: 0

TerribleThis app is not special. Has nothing good..Version: 3.2

BummerGutted... this app doesn't over-ride the brightness in settings. If you find yourself caught in a pitch black spot you first have to turn your brightness up in setting before finding this app.. Why can't the app do this for you like the torches you can install when jailbroken?!.Version: 0

PrefsGreat free app, but as was stated earlier: the system brightness control needs to be accessible thru the app. My brightness is set low bc it's easier for me to read. Must go to prefs to increase brightness before launching. Not good, but prob not the developer's fault (Apple restriction most likely)..Version: 2.4

Pretty GoodThis was the best app I could find to replace Just Light once it finally became a dinosaur and no longer worked under the new iOS updates. It was the best screen light app cuz it was fast and dumb simple. This app rivals it with some additional welcome features but it's slightly slower when it loads and the icon is hideous..Version: 3.2

Takes too long to startupThis app takes too long to startup which defeats the purpose of having it. You are better off using the white light from tapping contacts or mail because they startup way faster..Version: 0

Why did you change it. No one wants an app to turn on the cameras light.You guys are idiots. No one needs an app to turn on the camera light. It was perfect before. You could choose different colors. Choose how dark or light. Just perfect. Then you morons go and change it so I can turn on/off the camera's light. Stupidly at its finest. I just hope I can now find another app that does what your old one did..Version: 3.2

Update needed now!As of yet this app doesnt work well, unless you have your screen brightness to the maximum level. The softwear cannot change the setting at this time, making it look as if you have a flashligh but with low batterys..Version: 0

Good but not the bestVery bright but uses lots of power. I now have to plug in my iPod every night..Version: 2.6

Ads ruin this app.This was an excellent app till they added the banner. You can get free flashlight without the annoying ads. Just do a search..Version: 2.6

Was goodIt was good until the update. Now you only get one choice of light. Change it back please..Version: 3.0

Just the same as all the others nowThe new interface looks nice, but everything that made it stand out from all the other light apps has been removed. My favourite option "trippin" has gone. And the lighter and SOS. Please bring them all back..Version: 3.2

CrashtacularI was keen to try this app and was enjoying it until it froze. It only took about a minute to happen too ;( Please fix.Version: 0

Needs some markings to inform you about swipingEither this happened when I last updated, or I accidentally swiped and didn't realize it, but for a couple days I was mystified that my camera light wasn't working and MyLite had become strictly a screen light app. I came here to write a review and complain and realized all I needed to do was swipe from the edge of the screen. Now it's back to normal, and now I like it again. If there were some marking to suggest a screen swipe to switch mode, that would help a lot. Thanks!.Version: 3.2

HorribleIt. Glich when have on.Version: 3.2

Maximum brightnessThe scale for brightness only seems to appear to max out at your current iPhone brightness level..Version: 0

Simply The BestThe best light app out there, and the fact that its free is awesome as well. How can you argue with that, five stars..Version: 0

Plz plz plzI am only giving this app two stars because it doesn't work on my iPod the way I want it to but other ppl seemed to like it okay so I just decided on two stars. I really need an app that has a flashlight on the outer camera and works for an iPod touch. If you are reading this and know an app that has a camera flashlight that works for either the iPod touch 4 or 5 plz write a review saying it. Or can the company make this app work with the outer camera for the iPod 4 or 5.Version: 3.2

What? Where did it go?I used to show this app to everyone, showing off the lighter, having a standard joke about how to get somewhere fast - and then showing them the blue and red flashing screen. It was a fun little app. But then suddenly an update came along and deleted all the best parts of this app. Previously it did everything as good as it got; now it does nothing of note other than turn on the LED light. Bad move, so you go from five stars to one star. There are better apps out there - give us back what the 3.0 update took away and you can have your stars back! Update 3.2 - 18th January 2013: Better, I will give it one more star (two instead of one), but no lighter, no police (blue, red) flashing, and it still feels very basic and nothing special. Try viewing it on an iPad or an iPhone without a camera flash and suddenly this app looks pathetic, something it wasn't in its old form. DoApp Inc, a good first step back towards what this app should be, but you are not nearly there yet..Version: 3.2

Could be betterNot really that exciting.Version: 0
