A quick and easy to use light switch widget you can add to your home screen to turn on and off the flash light on your phone.

Does not contain ads.
Does not require app to be running.
Flash light works even when the screen is locked.

Requires camera and flashlight permissions (flashlight is part of camera module obviously), camera is not used, Android SDK just requires that permission to work.

My own Samsung Galaxy Nexus didn't need this permission but other brands or models of Android phone might.
Required to be able to access the camera device.
