Torchlight (Privacy Friendly)1.3.5

Switch on a phone’s camera flash and use it as a basic torch whenever extra light is needed. Torchlight (Privacy Friendly) provides a simple on/off control that operates the flash through the device’s camera system. It suits everyday situations such as lighting a dark room, finding an object, or walking through a poorly lit area.

The app requests only the CAMERA permission, which allows it to control the smartphone’s flash. Its access scope excludes network, GPS, and telephony permissions, while advertising is omitted entirely. This focused design keeps the app centered on illumination instead of adding unrelated services.

Torchlight (Privacy Friendly) is intended for Android users who want a straightforward phone-based light, including people who prefer apps with limited access to device functions. It belongs to SECUSO’s Privacy Friendly Apps group and is categorized as a System Tools app. The open-source project makes its source code available under open-source terms.

Version 1.3.5 runs on Android 4.2 and later and is built for Universal architecture. The app uses the phone’s camera flash as its lighting hardware, so its torch function depends on a device with that flash capability.
