How to use your Nokia Lumia 800 as a flashlight or Torch!


How to use your Lumia 800 as a flashlight or Torch
?

I believe, most LED flash carrying devices should have an inbuilt feature for using it as a flashlight or torch, with Lumia 800, there is no such thing, however there is a free app for it, on the Marketplace.

The app's name is Flashlight-X. It immediately switches ON the LED flash and also with an interesting option of sending an S.O.S signal via flash too!

Flashlight app on Lumia
Flashlight-X


Some excerpts of the app

- Works on ALL Windows Phone devices! (except HTC Mozart because of XENON flash)
- Uses Camera's LED Flash.
- Turns on INSTANTLY!
- FASTEST turn on time.
- NO flickering with NEW version!
- Flashlight-X icon looks great on your Start screen.
- Disables screen lock when the flash is ON!
- Runs under the lock (takes a second to recover). You can turn of the screen and
- Use camera button to turn on/off.
- SOS mode for emergency situations.
- And most importantly Flashlight-X is FREE!

Use when you are
- Reading a book at night
- Looking for your something in the dark
- Walking/Hiking at night
- Need an extra light
- In a emergency situation
Just use the search feature on your windows phone Marketplace for "Flashlight-X".

You can also find it, on the Zune marketplace for windows phone below
