Flashlight for iPhone + iPad for Negative User Reviews
✓ BrutalDoesn’t work half the time.Version: 4.2.03
✓ Doesn't work?All I see is colours. No flashlight. No instructions..Version: 2.7.2
✓ DumbI think it’s dumb that Apple decided for everyone that the iPad didn’t need a camera light. I would seriously like to use it on the iPad and no I don’t need to buy into your eco system and only buy the products that you want to sell to me. These makeshift apps that create a “screen light” are NOT at all like an actual flashlight. And then, when I deleted it because it was not what I wanted … it kept reappearing. Now I’m annoyed and writing a review. Note to developers- covertly trying to stay installed is rude and using the picture of a camera light for your app cover is deceiving. What else are you hiding ? I’ll just go buy a flashlight, thanks..Version: 4.2.06
✓ When you need a flashlight—here’s an ad instead!Used to be great. Now it is so clotted with ads that it is completely unreliable. I have been in emergencies where I needed a flashlight immediately—and it had to cycle ads at me for a few minutes first. It used to be a free app that you only had to pay for if you wanted extra features—now you have to pay for it to work..Version: 2.7.2
✓ FlashlightOnly works half the time not happy with it the other app is better.Version: 4.2.03
✓ StupidI downloaded it this "flashlight for iPhone, iPad and iPod app" thinking that it will be the best flashlight app for my iPad but it says that the flashlight won't work so that I have to use the screen as the light. It is not even bright Can this please be fixed 😡😁.Version: 3.12
✓ This sucksI have an iPad and when I try to turn the flashlight on It will not work you idiots!.Version: 4.5.3
✓ Not so goodIt is practically the exact same as any other torch app. Not that useful .Version: 2.2
✓ No le encuentro utilidad algunaInstalar y borrar....Version: 2.3
✓ The light automatically turns offI said I mean I saw this app and I downloaded it before but I deleted it, so I re-download it back because I wanted to make a video with the flashing light but there is no flashing light option and that’s not even the worst part the worst part is that whenever I shake my phone, the light on my ugly turns off and whenever I face my phone down the light automatically turns off and I don’t like that, so I check the settings to see if there was an option to turn that off I turned off an option in the settings, but it still doesn’t work. Why can’t there be a setting to turn off auto turn off, oh and there is too much ads. Do not download this app it’s trash..Version: 4.7.1
✓ Scam and digital garbageAll one needs is to activate the built in light. Don’t need scam messages about “storage is full” click bait that misleads and lies. Plus all these offerings that lock up the screen a forced you to force close the flashlight to get back to the basics. I did just fine before the digital garbage. I love a good old fashion flashlight that shined a whole lot brighter anyway. You give us a feature but force us to use some useless marketing scam app. It shows really where Apple’s heart is when it comes to the customer. Apple you can keep your light bulb..Version: 4.7.3
✓ Disappointed.I thought there would be an LED flash on iPods too, because I can see the little hole next to the camera on the back of iPod where it should flash. Anyway I don't mind if I don't have an iPhone 4 because iPod Touches are really good as well. 😉!.Version: 2.4
✓ Don't rush to download itI should have read the reviews........does not do anything for the iPad unless you upgrade .....not worth the time and energy.Version: 2.6
✓ Used to be greatNow when you need it in a hurry, you get ads you can’t get rid of. Yeah it’s dark, trying to find your way down a dark corridor, pull out your phone and you get ads.Version: 2.7.2
✓ Not flashNot much of a flashlight!? I guess I'm spoiled by the led on my nexus 1..Version: 2.3
✓ GreatIt's very handy to have... But takes a while to warm up?.Version: 3.0
✓ Battery killerThe torch is okay BUT.....if you don't completely close the app when you have finished with the torch it will kill your battery as quick as anything. I had 50% battery, used the torch for 2 minutes max and the battery was at 9% in less than 1 hour with no other apps running. Use at own risk. CANNOT RECOMMEND..Version: 3.0
✓ This app is a bummerThis flashlight app drives me ABSOLUTELY NUTS. Almost every time I have to use it for one practical reason or another, I end up either accidentally clicking on an ad that takes me off the flashlight app (thus cutting off the light when I am in the middle of using it) or starting a mini rave with the strobe light feature that increases and decreases the frequency of the blinking light depending on the number I somehow land on. What makes it particularly irritating is that half the time I try to go back to “0” to turn off the strobe feature, it doesn’t work... it actually will end up blinking faster. All I can say is thank God I’m not epileptic. Oh, and it would be awesome if the flashlight would still stay on even when I open totally separate app and keep the flashlight app running in the background. But nope, it cuts off immediately once I leave the main screen..Version: 4.1.1
✓ FlashlightI am choked that when I needed my flashlight to see where I was going im the dark and stumbling around that it was no longer there. I needed to install a new flashlight ....!! not happy . I have a dozen codes that I change . Do u think I carry them with me ???? NO!! I am getting to the point that I think u r as cumbersome as Microsoft . Big Burn !.Version: 4.5.2
✓ Update was a bad ideaThis app has been with me through three phones. I loved it because I could just click and poof, there was light I could dim or brighten as necessary. Close the app and the light is gone ... no need to open the app. In short, it was EASY TO USE. Taking away the dimmer switch and locking me in at the light level used in restaurants for ‘ambience’ made this the least useful app I have now..Version: 4.3
✓ Almost uselessI find it almost useless. More often than not the light fails to activate when I engage the app. All I get is the picture on the screen and not the light I actually need. This also happens when I turn my phone off after successfully using the app to save battery, then turn it right back on with the app still in background on my phone..Version: 4.2.06
✓ IPhone SE flashlightThe flashlight is not like the flashlight on previous I phones. It is not bright enough like previous iPhones. Also it doesn’t stay on. It flashes even on 0. Not pleased with the iPhone SE.Version: 4.5
✓ YOU ARE A PRANKWhen i click the light thing, ALL IT TURNS TO DO IS TAKE ME TO A WHITE STUPID SCREEN..Version: 4.1.1
✓ IdiotIs so trash trump.Version: 4.5
✓ DO NOT DOWNLOADWARNING!!! DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP!!! IT IS A SCAM IT DOES NOT WORK!!!.Version: 4.2.03
✓ Flashlight appIt’s not very useful. It doesn’t have a bright light like it says. People with iPads can’t use the app as well as iPhones can. They pretty much just put a candle on your camera screen. It’s not bright at all. Like at all. I admit it’s very annoying because if I wanna take a picture but I need light because.. we’ll I don’t know! Power is out and it’s 12 a.m. how do I get light? Anyways it’s not useful..Version: 4.5
✓ FlashlightI think it’s good.Version: 4.2.05
✓ Always turns on by itselfTurns on sometimes when you pick up the phone.Version: 4.5.3
✓ BadBad when you try to get the coulers it doesn’t work and it doesn’t even make it brighter😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡😡.Version: 4.5.3
✓ Not a flashlightI thought it would activate a flashlight for seeing, but no, it’s literally just a flashing light on your screen if you have an iPad..Version: 4.2.05
✓ NothingIt never works at all..Version: 4.2.04
✓ Not workingFor some reason my flashlight will not work! I have tried everything and it will not work for me in flashlight mode!!! It works with lightbulb, fire, but not flashlight! I am very frustrated! Lorie Cwikowski.Version: 4.5.2
✓ Why the adds all of a suddenLeave the adds am deleting the app because of them Tankz.Version: 4.6.1
✓ Flash lightFlash light keeps flashing instead of staying on.Version: 4.2.06
✓ HughPoor quality light I get better light off my screen.Version: 4.5
✓ Lies doesn’t work for iPadDon’t get.Version: 4.5.2
✓ FalseIt doesn't work with an iPad.. unless you use the screen one which gives off the exact same amount of light as when it's on...Version: 4.1.1
✓ Useless for mobileIt is the worst app in the worl 🤫🧏🏻♀️.Version: 4.7.3
✓ Not the greatest torchOk I will say that the colours are pretty cool but it’s not very bright. I will say though I haven’t used it in the dark so it could be pretty good.Version: 4.1.1
✓ Useless.It's suppose to be a flashlight, but only brightens up the screen.Version: 3.0
✓ DON'T DOWNLOAD THIS APP 😡😡I tried to download this and it downloaded and I went on it did not do the flash and I am on a iPad it said for iPhone,iPods, or iPads so you should make it so it would go on ALL devices.Version: 4.1.1
✓ I love you100/100 percent rate!.Version: 4.2.06
✓ Waste of downloadToo many intrusive ads that make it unusable..Version: 2.7.2
✓ Thought it was a flashlight?Only turned up my screen brightness and other functions such as SOS which sounded handy did not work! Wouldn't bother wasting data to download this one!.Version: 3.0
✓ This app sucksIt doesn't work at all.Version: 4.2.03
✓ UselessMy screen is brighter than this light I walked into a dark room and could see nothing so I got out of the app and my home screen is brighter than it!!!!!!!!!!!!.Version: 4.3
✓ What’s the point?What’s the point of the app if there is already a flashlight conveniently on your phone. Also the flashing lights aren’t any different colors, I also think that the different modes are just pretty much the same. The different colors don’t even appear on the flashlight, just on the screen. I also agree that there shouldn’t be ads in the middle of when you wanna see something in the dark. You can just get a flashlight on your phone without having to unlock it. I did not really like the app..Version: 4.5
✓ I use to really like this app!I use to really like this app but now with all of the in app ads it has become cumbersome, annoying and to some extent dangerous. Sometimes I need this flashlight to find a particular key to gain easy and quick entry and here comes this random ad that you can’t get out of in order to use the flashlight. Don’t let this be an incident of stalking because that ad could very well delay and hinder your safe entry. Who has time to be fiddling around with an app when you are trying to get to safety?.Version: 4.6.1
✓ There Is Not Even A Free FlashlightI always wished iPads had built in flashlights like the iPhone does, and when I saw ‘Flashlight’ in the trending searches I was thrilled. When I clicked the option this popped up and the reviews were okay so I downloaded it. When I opened the app I had three options: -Play with color for no apparent reason -Candle filter -Buy the actual flashlight that you downloaded this app for No Thanks!.Version: 4.2.04
✓ Why?!So, I decided to download this app because my iPad doesn’t have a flashlight, because the title of the app say “Flashlight For IPhone and IPad” , Alright so you know I downloaded the app, waited for it to be downloaded and started checking to see if it works or if it was a lie, I open it to not see a shocker to me, and it said “Your Iphone doesnt have a flashlight so we can’t really use it” And I was so confused because I don’t have a iphone or ipod, but the title of the app literally says “For IPad” I just cant.Version: 4.5
✓ TrashIt cost money and doesn’t tell you that on the App Store and cost 2.99 a month.Version: 2.7.2
✓ Useful but...What I really dislike about this app (and the main reason I’m here, in the App Store, looking for a different flashlight app, is the constant switching from steady beam to SOS or any of the strobe flash settings with barely any touch or if I happen to move my hand while holding my iPhone. The SOS/strobe feature is good...it needs to be less easy to set that off. Otherwise a good app..Version: 4.5
✓ BadProbably fab if you have an iPhone 4 but otherwise not very good the screen just goes White and is a bit of a fail oh well should of read the details on the app never mind.(don't buy if u don't have iPhone 4).Version: 2.1
✓ I’m giving two star rating because…I downloaded it because seeing this flashlight app had the most downloads at 87K… Upon downloading it and opening to use for the first time as I turned my volume on my iPhone up a noise was being heard in second or two increments - sound something like “woosh woosh woosh” and it didn’t stop so I uninstalled it after not being able to get it from stopping... has anyone else had this problem and if so was it resolved?.Version: 4.5.1
✓ Don’t workDoesn’t work.Version: 4.2.03
✓ Dimming…dimming…done.So this app completely stopped working today because I had the AUDACITY to dim it a tiny bit. I was in a very dark spot and needed to read something that happened to be coated in plastic. The initial reflection off the plastic was SO BRIGHT back into my eye I dimmed it to about 80%. How DARE I??!! The app responded by dimming things down to USELESS% - I literally couldn’t see anything. When I swiped the brightness back and forth it refused to change. When I toggled between ON/OFF it just stayed at USELESS%. When I spun the Devil’s Dial - you know the one you NEVER want that ALWAYS activates spontaneously when you’re walking in the dark and carrying ten things, that one - I swear the app laughed at me. So I closed and opened. Same. I hard closed and opened. Same. Came back hours later. Same. Turned on my Control Center flashlight and I heard the Hallelujah Chorus. Let there be bright light! Back to your app? Yep. Same. So swiping it is..Version: 4.2.06
✓ My iPhone UpgradeWith iPhone 4 working I had the long job of reinstalling apps. This one is OK , but has no auto on to either option . Nothing brilliant about this app as it only use the existing hardware..Version: 2.1
✓ Not that helpfulIf you just want a light so you can see what you’re doing, get something else. If you want a spontaneous disco party while your juggling groceries and trying to find the keys you dropped, this is a good one, because it might suddenly decide you want to send “hello world” to any aliens who might be watching instead of finding your keys. Want it to flag at random? Got it. Shine a simple light in the darkness? That’s a different app. Because god know you don’t need to be shown some random ad when you’re running down a trail trying not to get eaten by a bear..Version: 4.2.06
✓ Light doesn’t stay onI used to use this app all the time because I have a newborn and I find the apple flashlight hard to get to (I either have to swipe just right from the upper right corner with my small hands or hard press from the home page which I don’t always find the easiest to do). With the latest update I’ve found the light only stays on for about 10 seconds and I can’t get it to come back on once it times out. Because of this I deleted this app and downloaded a different one..Version: 4.5
✓ Most annoying appI hardly never right reviews, but this app has changed my mind in this case. Sounded cool, looked cool, then used it. Loved it at first...I hate that I turn this on to try and find something and my fingers slip and I am in “rave” mode with flashing lights..no problem, I turn it back to zero and it stays on. Turning it to Sos mode used to work now I have to exit out then back in. Not cool when you’re looking for something in a precarious position that your grandchild dropped in the middle of the seat and console or to sneak up on a mysterious critter you are trying to identify that keeps coming around. Going into flashing mode just scared it away and alerted your neighbors as to some strange person creeping around outside not to mention giving you an enormous headache if your prone to migraines. There should be a button in the settings that allows you to switch to these modes or to turn them off completely to use one specifically. Reading the reviews, it looks like I am not the only one who thinks so. Also, having an ad pop up full screen in the middle is just as bad. No, I don’t want to play a pop the bubbles game when I am in a dark area trying to keep safe or trying to fix something..Version: 4.2.06
✓ Colour feature?Great app n all but the colours don’t work?.Version: 4.2.05
✓ Bad appIT IS CRAPPY!!!.Version: 4.1.1
✓ Is great those few times when it works.Not so great those times it doesn’t work..Version: 4.5.2
✓ BruhTo those people saying it doesnt work on ipad, ipads have no flashlight you idiots.Version: 4.5.3
✓ It has ads! You can’t get through the adsWho wants to click off ads to get to a flashlight in a hurry. It was great 2years ago, but now you can’t even turn on the light. My elderly mom had trouble with the Apple flashlight 2 years ago and was able to do this app, but no more. I am so mad that she was in a dark parking lot and had game ads come up and could not see the X to get out of the game ads. When I opened it, 2 games ads came up! DELETE this Chinese crap!!.Version: 2.7.2
✓ One star that goes up to 2 starsDose nothing but a little bit cool so 2 2 star.Version: 4.7.3
✓ Light shuts off and can’t be turned back onLight is working then randomly shuts off and have to do a reset.Version: 4.5
✓ UselessThis app does not work! Or it might just be me. On my iPad, I press the flashlight button and, Nothing happened! In my opinion this app is useless and needs more effort put into it..Version: 4.5
✓ Can’t FixBrightness suddenly went super low and does t work..Version: 4.5
✓ Doesn’t workSo I tried it a bunch of times and it doesn’t work on ipad.Version: 4.2.06
✓ Why is it mentioned that it works on Ipads?Flooded by advertisements left and right, Theres no light coming out from the Ipad's camera all you get is a candle on your screen and a bunch of advertisements. Im sure with airplane mode on and an Iphone it'll be useable; reconsider using it for your Ipad..Version: 4.5.2
✓ WOW! IT DOESN'T DO A THING👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆.Version: 4.1.1
✓ Not consistentWhy it’s keep asking to upgrade. I purchased this app about 4 months ago why pay another $2.99 to upgrade that’s nonsense.Version: 4.7
✓ FlashlightI use the flash light on my phone for emergencies. I DO NOT like that now you have game ads popping up that delays being able to use the flashlight. What are you going to do next, not let people make a call or send a text until they watch an ad?!? This is STUPID. To get the games for free I understand having to watch the ads but the ads to other products on the phone is not good!!!’.Version: 2.7.2
✓ Worst appDon’t get it.Version: 4.2.06
✓ Bad updateThe app before it update was better with the one big button! Now it has two tiny little buttons. I will be getting rid of this app to find one like this one was..Version: 2.0
✓ USELESSI used this app to toggle the amber light and now you can’t do that anymore. Garbage app.Version: 4.5
✓ ConfrontingThe annoying advertising and immediate requests to rate this app were disconcerting. There are good features, like being able to use the screen to light up, though without instructions, it is not clear if this was the intention. Certainly, there are aspects of this app whose purposes are not obvious. This is unsettling. I have uninstalled this app, as I would not be comfortable using it..Version: 3.0
✓ What a Pointless AppWhat a pointless app this is. It is filled with ads as is every other crummy free app like this, and it doesn't have many options. The iHandy torch is much better. People should be able to download a small, free app of a flashlight that is well designed and isn't filled with ads, just do it can be there to help people out..Version: 2.6
✓ Basic bright lightPretty basic and no options to dim.Version: 2.5
✓ Well....It is ok BUT on the app photo it looks like the light is coming from were the camera is also what is the point of having black on the colours or dark colours when it is a light it makes it not light der!.Version: 3.0
✓ L’application ne fonctionne pasMédiocre sofunik.Version: 4.5.4
✓ Quit sending updatesJust make it work!.Version: 4.7.1
✓ Not IdealWhen you need a flashlight you need it now. Every time I open the app there is an ad for a 3 month subscription even though I paid for a lifetime long ago. There is also a button that says restore, when I click on it the flashlight is restored why doesn’t it stay restored??? Super annoying.Version: 2.7.2
✓ UseLessDoesn’t even work on iPad. Only reason I’m giving it a star is because I have to.Version: 4.1.1
✓ FlashlightFull of ads.Version: 2.7.2
