Flashlight Answers 
How do I make it even brighter?
First, slide up with one finger to make sure Flashlight is at its brightest (sliding down with one finger will dim). On devices running iOS 5.0 or later, Flashlight can override your device's brightness setting and will provide 100% brightness. On other devices, if you want/need the light to be even brighter, go to the Settings app on your iPhone (or iPod touch) and increase the brightness.
My device is too bright/too dark after I close Flashlight, why?
This is the standard behavior of iOS at this time to leave the brightness changed by Flashlight. If you change brightness in iBooks, for example, you will see the same effect. Here are some useful tips to deal with this.

1) Exit Flashlight in a way to avoid this behavior

If you double-tap the Home screen, bringing up the fast-app-switcher, Flashlight will return your screen to it's previous brightness when the app was opened. Then, tap the Home button once more to exit Flashlight with your brightness at the correct settings.

2) Restore brightness after leaving Flashlight

You can return to the brightness setting you have chosen for your device by locking and unlocking your device. To lock quickly, press the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device.

3) Disable this behavior

You can turn off this behavior from Flashlight by Customizing in the app and choosing Settings. This, of course, means your screen will not be able to be 100% bright.

Where did my effects go?
How do I customize Flashlight?
All of the effects are still in this version of Flashlight. The LED controls are a separate screen effect which you can customize and organize as you like.

Flashlight has many different effect screens which you can customize however you like. To move from one effect screen to another, simply slide left or right with one finger.

To change your effects:
  • 1) Hold down with one finger until "Hold to Customize" changes to "Release to Customize".
  • 2) Let go and you will be on the Settings screen.
  • 3) From here, you can:
    • Press the "+ Add New Screen" button to add a new screen, you will then see the list of effects to choose from.
    • reuses the "Edit" button to delete or change the order of screens. The first screen in the list will appear when you open Flashlight.
The first screen in the list will appear both when you open Flashlight and when you leave Settings.
Will Flashlight really give me seizures?
Flashlight does not enable the strobe light or other special effects unless you choose them in the Settings. If you have concerns, please talk with your doctor before turning on the special effects. Some more information is available on our Health and Safety Warning
How do I make it go faster?
Slide from up (from bottom to top) with two fingers. You can also change the speed of each color used in some effects by customizing them. For fun, try keeping the shortest time for white or a color, and a longer time for black to slow down reality a bit.
