This is the ONLY shake to turn on flashlight app that works on my phone. I've been downloading flashlight apps for an hour to find one that does just this. I shake my phone, the flashlight comes on. No adds, no asking for payment. If I could give more stars 🌟 I would!

It works pretty well. On my Teracube, I have to have it set to the least sensitivity possible to avoid accidental flashlight activations, but having that be adjustable is genius.
