Questions

Why does LightsOut need camera access?

The iPhone flashlight is technically part of the camera hardware. LightsOut uses Apple’s camera framework exclusively to control the flashlight. It does not access your camera, capture photos or video, or store anything.

Will the flashlight stay on if I lock my phone?

iOS doesn’t allow third-party apps to keep the flashlight active after the screen locks. LightsOut keeps your screen on during the timer, which keeps the torch running. If you manually lock your phone, the flashlight will turn off.

What if I swipe away the app mid-timer?

LightsOut will pause your timer and turn off the flashlight automatically. When you reopen the app, you’ll see a Resume prompt with your remaining time ready to go.

Does the Control Center control require a newer iPhone?

The Control Center integration requires iOS 18 or later. The rest of the app — timers, widgets, Siri — works on iOS 17 and up.

Is there a subscription or in-app purchase?

Nope. $1.99 once. No ads, no subscription, no upsells. Every feature is included.

Set it. Forget it. Lights out.

Your flashlight deserves a bedtime too.
