DashLight is a simple and lightweight utility that functions as a toggle for your device's camera flash/LED or screen brightness, enabling you to utilize it as a torch or flashlight.

DashLight functions effectively as an app, widget, DashClock extension, or Tasker plugin - offering a comprehensive combination of features, the sole application to seamlessly merge all these options. Each segment can be utilized independently if desired.

The widget placement is flexible, allowing it to be positioned on the homescreen or lockscreen, or both. Moreover, with the upgrade, its appearance is fully customizable to blend in with any device theme.

The app provides a practical solution for users without a camera flash on their device, permitting the screen to work as a bright light source.

The extension stands out as the first specialized torch/flashlight DashClock extension.

An additional small Tasker plugin is included in the upgrade, which enables unique functionalities like flashing the LED upon notification receipt or activating the light by shaking your device creatively.

For users creating innovative DashLight-related Tasker profiles for sharing, feel free to reach out via email.

Please Note:

  • Due to constraints within DashClock, toggling the flash directly from the lock screen using the extension without unlocking the device is currently not feasible.
  • The widget, however, can toggle the flash directly from the lock screen without unlocking.
  • The app's inclusion was necessitated by an Android 4.0/ICS bug affecting proper functioning of a widget-only "app" and is beneficial for users lacking a camera flash.
  • If Face Unlock is enabled, DashLight will not function correctly from the lock screen as two apps cannot access the camera simultaneously.

DashLight emerges as a fully featured, well-crafted, and user-friendly torch app available. Notably, it is 90% free of charge and devoid of advertisements.

Features:

  • DashClock extension
  • Widget for Homescreen and Lockscreen
  • Customizable widget appearance to complement any theme
  • App featuring Screen Light functionality for devices sans camera flash
  • Option to Hide App Drawer Icon if solely using widget/extension
  • Tasker plugin for enhanced control

  • Notification tray toggle (off only)
  • Auto-Off timer
  • Kit Kat Immersive Mode for Screen Light
  • Clean Holo design
  • Straightforward, efficient, and lightweight design
  • No ads and no internet permissions required
