Dashlight (torch/flashlight) app for android description: Dashlight is a simple and lightweight widget app and dashclock extension that acts as a toggle for your device 39 s camera flash led (or screen brightness) allowing you to use it as a torch flashlight.
Dashlight works great as an app widget dashclock extension or tasker plugin the only app to combine all these options seamlessly.
Each component can also be used independently of the others if you wish.
The widget can be placed on the homescreen or the lockscreen (or both) and its appearance is fully customisable (with the upgrade) allowing it to blend in with any theme you may have on your device.
The app allows users without a camera flash on their device to use the screen as a bright light source.
While the extension is the first dedicated torch flashlight dashclock extension.
A small tasker plugin is also included (upgrade only) allowing you to do crazy things such as flashing the led upon receiving notifications or shaking your device to activate the light.
Get creative!
Feel free to email me if you come up with any good dashlight related tasker profiles that can be shared with other users.
Please note: due to the way dashclock works i am currently unable to toggle the flash directly from the lock screen using the extension i.
E.
Without unlocking the device.
Unfortunately this is a limitation of dashclock not this app.
The widget however can toggle the flash directly from the lock screen without unlocking.
The app was added due to a bug in android - 0 ics that prevented me from having a properly functioning widget only app (issue 24208).
It is also useful for users without a camera flash.
Dashlight will not work properly from the lockscreen if you have face unlock enabled as the camera cannot be accessed by two apps at the same time.

Dashlight and face unlock.
Dashlight is the most complete well designed and intuitive app torch app available.
Best of all it is (90 ) free with no ads in sight!
