Where is the flashlight in a Samsung phone? Where in the Samsung Galaxy settings do you enable the flash notification function? The standard way to turn on a Samsung Galaxy flashlight

Samsung flashlight turns on in different ways depending on installed version Android. If standard application does not work properly, you can download the flashlight for free at Play Market.

Enabling on Android 6 and 7

If on Samsung phone one of the latest versions Android, you can launch the flashlight on it through the notification shade.

1. Swipe down from the top of the screen to launch Quick Settings.
2. Tap the flashlight icon. If the icon is not visible, scroll through the menu from right to left or expand it completely.

Below the icon there is an arrow, clicking on which opens additional options, where you can set the brightness of the light element. If the environment is completely dark, set the brightness to the maximum level. The battery will drain faster, but the beam coverage will increase.

Enabling on Android 4 and 5

We've sorted out the latest smartphone models, now let's see how to turn on the flashlight on Samsung device with Android 5.V quick settings There is no suitable icon; you can find it in the list of widgets.

1. Press your finger on an empty space on the desktop.
2. Wait for the additional menu to appear. Select Widgets.
3. Find Flashlight by scrolling both ways on the screen.
4. Grab the widget with a long press on the screen and drag it to your desktop.

A similar method works on Android 4. The names of the items that need to be selected in the interface differ.

1. Keep your finger on a free space on the desktop.
2. Release your finger when the additional menu appears. Open the "Applications and Widgets" section.
3. Go to the "Widgets" tab.
4. Find “Flashlight” by scrolling the list left/right.
5. Long press the widget and move it to your desktop.

The flashlight is turned on and off by clicking on the icon on the desktop. Additional settings It seems like there is no brightness level on older Android models, so you have to rely on the default beam parameters.

Alternative inclusion methods

On Samsung Galaxy S4 flashlight turns on when the screen is off after pressing the volume button. Officially, the function is available only on this model, but in fact this feature is hidden in the entire Galaxy series (there are only doubts that the method will work on any Android versions). To use the hardware key to turn on the flashlight, download the Nova Launcher application from the Play Market.

1. After installing Nova Launcher, hold your finger on an empty space on the desktop to bring up the “Add to Home” menu.
2. Select Actions.
3. Open Settings.
4. Select Flashlight.

The icon is located on the desktop. Click on it to open more options. The first switch is responsible for starting the flashlight. The second option allows you to set the time during which it will work. If you do not set a timeout, the flashlight will remain on continuously until you turn it off yourself.

Applications on Play Market

If the built-in flashlight does not work, or you are unhappy with its brightness, install the application from third party developers from Play Market. To see the list of options, just type the application in the search bar of the store keyword"flashlight".

A flashlight is an extremely necessary thing. The only problem is that you almost never have it on hand. But this is not a problem, since you can use the flashlight in your smartphone. You will learn how to do this in our article today.

In the absolute majority modern smartphones There is a separate button for turning the flashlight on and off and it is located in the curtain, which can be called up by sliding your finger from the top frame to the bottom. This is done for ease of access. This is what the button looks like:

In the same Android 5, the flashlight is located exactly under the curtain. True, let's not forget that there are a lot of different shells where there may not be a flashlight. What to do? It's okay, you can use a third-party application. Open it, enter the word “flashlight” into the search and see many results.

Choose the right application and install it on your smartphone. We launch it, turn on the flashlight with the touch button and, voila, everything works: the flash shines.

The screenshot shows the Super-Bright Flashlight application from Suprax Inc.

By the way, some applications support non-standard functions. For example, you can enable the function when the flashlight lights up intermittently.

How to turn on the flashlight on Samsung?

Go to the list of widgets. We find a flashlight here.

Add a widget to your desktop by dragging it. Now, in order to turn on the flashlight, you only need to tap the widget once.

You can turn it off in exactly the same way.

Coming back from a party at night, going down to the basement to get your favorite milk from your grandmother, or a coin fell under the furniture and you can’t find it?

In each of these situations, you may need a flashlight. It's a simple device that's always in short supply when you need it most.

Instead, there is almost always a smartphone nearby, no matter the time of day or night.

This multimedia device packs a lot of electronics and keeps you connected with your loved ones.

In order to turn on the flashlight, you can install the program on your phone, although in phones Samsung Galaxy a3 (2015, 2016), a5, c4, Samsung duo, gt s5610, j5, j3, a7, 5610, c5, gt s6102, s3 , a5, j2, gt e3322, on Samsung Grand Prime, Core 2, and so on, this application is already built-in (may depend on the OS version).

A push-button Samsung may also have a built-in flashlight (depending on the model) and can be turned on with one or two buttons. Let's look at a few options.

The standard way to turn on the flashlight on a Samsung Galaxy

ATTENTION: the pictures below are from a Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016) phone on Android 6.0.1, so they may not exactly match your device.

To use the built-in method, pull the top panel down and click on the down arrow on the right.

This is the simplest and quick way. You can turn it on even when making a call.

Other ways to turn on a flashlight on a Samsung

On Samsung Galaxy S4 you can turn on the flashlight even when the screen is off. To do this, you need to hold down the volume button.

Officially this feature is only available for this model, but in fact it is hidden in all series of Samsung Galaxy phones, although I'm not exactly sure with all versions of Android.

To use it, you will first need to install the Nova Launcher application from the play market.

After downloading and installing the application, we can get to work. From anywhere on your desktop, hold your finger on an empty space to launch the Add to Home menu.

Then select in context menu"Actions" item. A window will pop up with a list of applications and actions that can be performed.

Scroll to the Settings option and then select it. Now we must find the "Flashlight" element and select it.

After some time, it will be placed on the desktop and marked as a new icon. Click on it.

Using slider “1” you can enable or disable the start of the flashlight. The timeout option “2” allows you to set the time for which the flashlight will be launched.

Now check and if everything works, then you can delete the Nova Launcher application.

Method three to turn on a flashlight on a Samsung using the program

If the previous 2 options did not work, then try installing the program. There are many of them. I liked Flashlight.

After installation, all you need to do is click on the shortcut that will be on the main screen and in the menu and move the slider to the top (towards zero).

The program is very intuitive. It starts to display a black screen in the middle of which there is an “On/Off” button.

By pressing the icon the light turns on, illuminating everything in your area. The length of the light depends only on you, and from the moment you decide to click on the icon again, you will turn off the light.

An extremely simplified Android service allows you to turn on the flashlight in your Samsung Galaxy and other phones, even for elderly people with poor eyesight, in any conditions, including, of course, in the dark.

The program code is optimized and allows you to install it on any version of Android installed on your smartphone with flash.

The flashlight works reliably in moments when we need strong and clear light. Lighting the way, helping to find lost items, or serving as a warning light in the evening.

IN Google Play There are a wide variety of similar applications that convert a flash into a flashlight. Why did I choose Flashlight?

There are several reasons for this, the most important of which are:

Simplest work- only one icon is displayed on the desktop, which will turn on the flashlight.
The application does not require large memory and CPU resources.
Can be used on new and old versions of Android.
