Native Flashlight App Finally Docks In Jolla Store! - Jolla General Talk Discussions on JollaTides Community Port

Finally the all important 'flashlight' app arrives in the Jolla store.

It can be downloaded direct from Jolla store on device (just search: 'flashlight')

Up until now I've been using an android based app which only uses the screen for some light, but this one utilises the camera led so is far superior.

From early experience it's still in 'beta' with some flickering but otherwise works as intended and will be updated once the API is open to the developer.

Nice app to help us navigate safely home after New Year celebrations!

Thanks to the developer artem.marchenko! :-)

Yep, found it, thanks Captain!
I guess it won't actually show directly in the Jolla store until it's polished for use, which makes sense.

@Markkyboy

It was in the Jolla store when I posted this yesterday. ;-)

Markkyboy

That was quick!
Thanks for the heads up, Captain 8)

@Captain
After a myriad of problems with my Jolla, failing USB, failing bluetooth (still unresolved) and then loss of signal for my network (could have been my network as that's all working again), I'm still not seeing Flashlight app in the Jolla Store, not a problem really, just thought I'd mention it.

Sorry to hear about your problems @markkyboy I can't say I've experienced any of those issues personally. Could be time to contact [email protected] ?

Just checked and flashlight app is still there - just search 'flashlight' from the pulley menu search option and there is only one that comes up. ;-)

Markkyboy

Ah, I see. I must be getting old. When you said it had landed in the Jolla Store, I assumed you meant directly, where the current apps are (media, maps, documents, etc), like it had now made it out of beta to the shelves, so to speak :) doh!
Unless the phone becomes completely unusable, I won't be contacting Jolla care just yet - took me long enough to get the phone, I'm not letting go just yet! 8)

Great app. I wonder if it is possible to add a flash-light icon to the lock screen.

JollaTides

@strahlex - that would be really nice!

Howdy, Stranger!
