Introducing Tiny Flashlight + LED
Tiny Flashlight + LED is a convenient, user-friendly, and no-cost flashlight application offering support for LED flash light and various screen lights. Additional features like the Strobe flashlight, Morse Code, and Blinking flash lights make it a versatile tool for boosting productivity on your device.
This app is compatible with all phone models and tablets
Key features include flash notification and alerts, as well as LED Flash brightness control
LED Light
Utilize the LED Light function to activate the camera flash as a torch. You can also monitor battery life and temperature while using the torch. Activate the light timer to automatically turn off the torch after a set time period. Adjust settings to display battery status and enable the light timer. Toggle between Fahrenheit and Celsius by tapping on the battery temperature indicator. Please note that the LED Light screen is supported on devices equipped with a camera flash.
Brightness Control
Easily adjust the brightness of your device's camera LED light using the control at the bottom of the LED Light screen. This feature offers various brightness levels depending on your device's hardware, allowing for quick transitions between minimum and maximum brightness. While the brightest setting is safe for continuous use, it may drain the battery faster. Various Brightness Control widgets are available on the home screen to set specific brightness levels based on your illumination preferences. The Brightness Control function for the camera flash is accessible on Android 12+ but may vary across devices. The Screen Light brightness control is universally available.
Screen Light
The Screen Light function serves as a handy pocket lantern. If you prefer a softer light than the brightest option for comfortable viewing, this white screen mode functions as a practical lantern.
Light Bulb
Enjoy experimenting with a classical lamp featuring adjustable colors and brightness levels. Swipe left or right to change the colors of the lamp, and swipe up or down to modify the brightness. The letter "A" indicates the light bulb utilizes the light sensor for its luminosity.
Morse Code
Effortlessly transmit Morse code messages such as SOS, CQD, or custom text. Choose the transmission speed and decide whether to send signals via the flashlight or screen light.
Strobe Light
Craft diverse blinking patterns on the strobe light screen. Adjust the ON and OFF blinking frequencies and select between flashlight or screen light. This feature can be utilized as a torch beacon or flash alert in busy locations for guiding purposes.
Police Lights
Generate fun lighting sequences for parties - Police Lights, Party Lights, Disco Lights. Share your creative light configurations with friends and enhance the fun!
Flashlight Notification
Access notification controls quickly from the status bar.
Customizable Light Widgets
Enhance your home screen with personalized LED or Light Bulb widgets customized with specific colors and functionalities.
Tiny Flashlight proves valuable as a searchlight when locating items like keys or navigating in the dark. Whether facing a power outage or searching under furniture, Tiny Flashlight stands as a reliable assistance tool.
Tiny Flashlight v5.0
Tiny Flashlight v5.0 is a stripped-down version with only the most important functions included – starting the camera flash as a torch and using the screen light. Everything else can be added as a plugin from the market. Plugins are like normal applications, without self-executable code – they have to be used within Tiny Flashlight.
Using plugins architecture gives several very important advantages:
• The application size is kept very small – important for low-end devices
• Users can choose what they need – ex. Strobe light, Morse code, integration with tools like Tasker, different widgets, etc.
• Reduction of required permissions. Tiny Flashlight’s permissions are stripped down to the bare minimum and if a given feature requires an additional permission, this permission will be added to a plugin. The user can decide whether to install the plugin and allow the permission or not.
• The plugins are treated like normal applications by Android and Google Play, which gives full control to the OS. For example, Tiny Flashlight v5.0 supports restricted OS accounts on tablets – a user can choose which plugin to allow/disallow in a restricted account.
Full accessibility support.
I have been surprised to find that applications with accessibility support are almost non-existent despite the excellent accessibility sub-system added in Android 4.1. I have decided to make Tiny Flashlight fully compliant and usable with touch-less navigation and the new touch-to-explore system. Tiny Flashlight will make speech notifications, when different events occur. This is very important for visually impaired users, who want to help their guiding dogs in the dark.
Android eco-system integration
Starting the camera LED has not been one of the easiest tasks, especially on older devices. I have received lots of requests from other developers to create a public API. The API has been completed and an open-source SDK will be released during the course of the Beta. It will be possible to create 3rd party widgets and plugins by other apps, which may need specific functionality like strobe light.
Solving the different form-factors problem.
Tiny Flashlight v5.0 supports all possible Android device displays – from 240x240 to 1080p, while keeping the application file in under 1MB. This was made possible by using highly-optimized vector graphics for most visual assets. All user interface elements are dynamically generated for the specific device and the user almost never downloads extra assets, which are not used.
Localization
Localizing an application is one of the most important steps a developer should take for removing the barrier between the users and the interface of the application. The current stable version of Tiny Flashlight supports 43 different languages and with the stable release of v5.0 it will support more than 50. Also, every official plugin will be fully localized.
Support for old Android devices
There is a large number of old devices in Asia, which do not access Google Play and can’t be seen in the official statistics. I’m fully committed to backwards compatibility and v5.0 will support devices with Android 1.5 (Cupcake).
Testing v5.0 and giving feedback is crucial before the final release sometime in late February/early March 2014. It will make the transition from the old version to the new easier for millions of users.
