Flashlight for Nexus 5 - the best apps
With different flashlight apps on your Nexus 5, you can bring light into the dark on the go. We present the three best apps from the PlayStore and show you how to turn your Nexus 5 into a flashlight without an additional app.
Nexus 5: flashlight even without an app
- Starting with Android 5.0 Lollipop, the flashlight will automatically come to your Nexus 5.
- Open the quick settings with a double swipe gesture from the top of the screen down.
- Here you can tap "Flashlight" and the LED light is switched on. The feature does not offer any other functions. But it is quickly and easily accessible.
The flashlight app "Tiny Flashlight" is the all-rounder for the Nexus 5
- The free Tiny Flashlight app is by far the most extensive flashlight app for the Nexus 5.
- In addition to the normal camera LED, the app also optionally uses the smartphone screen to enable colorful color gradients, blue lights, Morse code and other extras.
- For quick switching on: With the "Shake on Lock Screen" option you can activate the flashlight by shaking the smartphone.
The flashlight LED Flashlight makes your Nexus suitable for parties
- The free flashlight app LED Flashlight is a must for party goers on the Nexus. First, it brings mood in "disco mode" with rhythmic color changes, later it lights you the way home in the dark.
- Here, too, there is a shake mode with which you can activate the flashlight in the lockscreen.
- In comparison to "Tiny Flashlight" you will not find quite as many additional lamps for the homescreen here.
Nexus Flashlight: flashlight app with no frills
- Nexus Flashlight is particularly slim and impresses with its minimalist style: the app is a simple flashlight without unnecessary features.
- While the flashlight is on, you can still easily write on WhatsApp and Facebook or surf the Internet.
- So that you don't have to call up the app every time, switching on and off also works with a widget. The other apps also offer such widgets. Here you get a suitable power button in the usual app design.
