Requires Android: 2.1 and up
Category: Tools
V4.7 update:
Added support for Galaxy Ace 5830i
Motorola Milestone and Milestone 2 light is brighter

Overview:
Brightest. Fastest. Simplest. Your own Tiny Flashlight.

Incredibly simple and yet quite handy flashlight app. Will use your device’s camera LED (camera flash) as a torch.

Tiny Flashlight is currently the best led flashlight app on the Android Market, because:

- It supports the widest range of devices with camera led (camera flash)
- It’s the fastest and brightest flashlight / torch on the market
- Has different widgets to choose from
- Has great and diverse screen lights including Morse code, Strobe, Police lights
- Quality support

Light sources:
==============

* Camera LED – Uses your phone’s camera led to emit bright light. Note that some devices don’t have a camera led. In this case the led flashlight option will be disabled, but you can still use one of the screen lights.

* Screen Light – This is the basic white screen light, which is bright enough for daily use. You can use it as your primary flashlight option in case your device doesn’t have a camera led or you want to save the battery.

* Warning Lights, Police Lights, Color Flashlight, Strobe light, Morse Code, Text to Morse, Manual Morse Code – Different light sources, which may be useful in many situations. You can change the brightness and the colors.

CAUTION: Strobe lighting can trigger seizures in photosensitive epilepsy!

Flashlight Widget:
========
Tiny Flashlight is one of the few applications on the android market, which is free and has different widgets to choose from when the device has an option for a led flashlight.

Flashlight Permissions:
============
Why Tiny Flashlight needs so many permissions and how are they used:

* TAKE PICTURES AND VIDEOS (CAMERA flashlight)
- In order to start the camera flashlight (led flash) on some devices, Tiny Flashlight has to use a small part of the camera hardware and it needs this permission. Don’t worry, I’m not taking any pictures or videos without your permission. Tiny Flashlight is just accessing the camera flashlight (led flash).

* CONTROL FLASH LIGHT
- This is the old method of accessing the camera flashlight on Android 1.5 and 1.6.

*** As you know, Tiny Flashlight is free, but also is one of the best supported apps on the Android Market. Currently, this is the only app that supports almost all devices with camera flashlight (led flash) and fully supports all versions of Android (1.5, 1.6, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 3.0, 4.0). This takes huge amounts of time and effort and in order for Tiny Flashlight to remain the best flashlight on the market, I have to use ads inside it.

The following permissions are required by Google’s own ad provider (Admob) and Millennial Media (the biggest independent ad network). Both are respected industry leaders.

* INTERNET
- Used to load ad info from their servers. Nothing more.
* READ PHONE STATE AND IDENTITY
- Some Motorola devices have factory bugs. These devices don’t have unique IDs and this became a problem for ad networks, because they can’t function without it. There is a workaround for this problem by using the PHONE IDENTITY permission. This permission is used only for getting a unique id.
