To operate iPhone’s camera flash, to use it as a make-shift flash light, is a bit of roundabout job. But there are apps available that does the job in a more straightforward fashion. But what about an application that quadruples the use of iPhone’s built-in LED flash? Well, that is exactly what Flashlight – 4 in 1 app for iPhone does. Flashlight – 4 in 1 iPhone app comes at a price tag of $0.99 in the iTunes App Store.
How Flashlight – 4 in 1 App Works?
Flashlight – 4 in 1 app for iPhone converts your iPhone’s LED flash to a typical flashlight, a strobe, Morse-code transmitter, and a lighted magnifier. The flashlight feature turns ON the LED and it stays on until you turn it off. It is like any other flashlight app your have for iPhone in iTunes App Store. The strobe feature lets you have a strobe light that flashes in pre-set durations. You can set the frequency with which it flashes from within the app using a virtual frequency knob. The magnifier option, with ratio up to 4x and combined with LED light will let you read the finest print and explore micro world to the greatest detail. Using the iPhone’s camera, you can even snap a picture of what you actually see in the magnifier, and save the same in the device’s memory.
The Morse code is a throwback to the yesteryears, when it was the major form of silent communication, especially during wars. To use the said feature, simply type what you wish to say on the screen, and hit the transmit button; the app converts the words into corresponding Morse code, and conveys the same by flashes of light (you’ll also hear the sound of Morse code). Once the code is transmitted, the message history is automatically saved. Flashlight – 4 in 1 app for iPhone is compatible with iOS versions 4.0 and up. In other words, the app is suitable for iPhones 4 and 4s only.
