Store listing

Full description
Shake your phone and the flashlight turns on. Shake again and it turns off. No unlocking, no hunting for a button, no opening an app. Looking for a torch that turns on without unlocking your phone? That is exactly what this does: no button, no app to open, just shake. Inspired by the built-in Motorola chop for torch gesture. Works on Android 5.0 or newer, on phones with a camera flash. HOW IT WORKS • Shake with the screen on: instant torch light, every time • Screen off: pick up your phone first, then shake. A phone left idle for a long time can miss the first shake • Quick Settings tile: light from anywhere, lock screen included • Adjustable sensitivity: so it fires when you mean it, not in your pocket MORE CONTROL • Ignores shakes while you are on a phone call, if you want it to • Starts automatically when your phone boots • Track your streak and unlock achievements as you go FREE, WITH NO SUBSCRIPTION No pop-up ads. The only ads are ones you choose to watch, to unlock extras like the dark theme. A NOTE ON ANDROID BATTERY SAVING Android and some phone makers (Motorola, Xiaomi, OnePlus, Huawei and others) stop background apps to save battery. This affects every torch app of this kind, not just ours. We handle it: the app restarts itself automatically when your phone allows it, and tells you what happened when it can't. For the most reliable results, allow background use when the app asks. Shake Flashlight & Torch was formerly called Shake to Enable Torch: same app, same shake.

What's new

Fixed: shake detection now keeps working after an app update. Fixed: the rating request no longer appears at the wrong moment.
