The need for light is about as fundamental of a need as there can be for humans. From the natural light of the sun, we derive all that comprises life: food, energy and our daily weather all are affected by its presence. Still, there is a lot that goes on at night and in dimly lit places and we may need to be able to see just as well as if it were daylight. In the past, lanterns and candles were the only viable solutions to this problem. Even in the recent past, flashlights were a powerful but bulky solution for these situations. As technology continues to progress, we are discovering newer and more portable ways to harness the power of light in our pockets. One area that has utilized this trend is mobile applications, with dozens of them now available for a variety of lighting purposes. Below, we will discuss three Android applications that can be used to convert your phone into a brighter object than any candle or traditional flashlight.
Super-Bright LED Flashlight:
The need for night time vision is a necessity for those who work long hours or who have poor eyesight. In the past, it was simply better to avoid darker hours when you could not see well, but your Android device can rescue you from this fate. The Super-Bright LED Flashlight app is an excellent tool that utilizes your smartphone or tablet’s camera flash function to brightly illuminate the world in front of you. Available as a free download, this companion tool can be configured to function as a normal flashlight, as a strobe light or even as a blinking tool to send out SOS messages. Its intense graphics really give the impression that you are holding a genuine flashlight in your hands!

Party Light Free:
Another great way to illuminate the room or the pathway forward is through the use of the Party Light Free app. The application can emit a variety of different colors and patterns to really set the mood for a social gathering or as a unique way to capture someone’s attention. Available for free, any Android user can download this application and utilize their device’s screen to project rave lights, police strobes, pulses, glow, skylight and several other lighting effects. Those with cameras on their Android devices can also take advantage of the LED strobe feature, which can be used as a way to send out a notice to those across the room or on the other side of the yard at night.

Police Lights & Siren Platinum:
Last but not least, the Police Lights & Siren Platinum app for Android is a fun and easy tool for gaining attention and shining light on a subject. This free download from Google Play will allow users to convert their smartphone’s screen into a flashing device that can emulate colors such as red and blue or red and white. In addition to this, an audio siren is included in the app and can be activated to emulate an actual police vehicle. Only for off-road and private use, this app can be a fun way to light up an area or a useful tool to scare away critters and other hassles that roam around the house and yard at night.
