NeoLight turns your mobile device into a flashlight (it was specialy written for the mobile phone Openmoko Neo Freerunner). .
It flips the brightness up to full and displays a fullscreen bright white rectangle.
It's written in Python / Elementary.

Features
* Bright white or colored (red/green/blue/custom) screen
* Brightness dimmer
* Strobe light modes (with adjustable speed)
* Just tap the top left corner of screen to dim brightness to minimum, and the top right corner to flip the brightness up to the level defined in settings.
Notes
* NeoLight is tested on SHR unstable only. Normally, it should run on any system with a revision of python-elementary equal or greater to 40756.
* NeoLight base home directory is $HOME/.config/neolight. This directory and related files are created after first run.
WARNING : Seizures
Some people (about 1 in 4000) may have seizures or blackouts triggered by light flashes or patterns.
Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these "photosensitive epileptic seizures".
These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects.
Anyone who has had a seizure, loss of awareness, or other symptom linked to an epileptic condition should consult a doctor before using the NeoLight strobe feature.
