Sometimes, an app just doesn't need to be complicated. And that's definitely the case with both Flashlight and myLite. 

There's nothing fancy here--just two free apps that turn your screen into a flashlight so you don't have to go fumbling around in your purse for your keys. It can also help you unlock the door at night. Basically, both apps work like flashlights. Pretty self-explanatory, yeah? 

But there are a few notable features worth mentioning. The Flashlight app opens as a blank, white screen. If you press the "i" for more information, you can set the screen to a strobe-light effect. I don't know how useful that would be, but fun, nonetheless. 

myLite, on the other hand, offers up a bit more. While it also opens as a blank screen, if you tap it, you can change the color of the screen by means of sliders. Plus, if you press the "Show Effects" button, a drop down menu appears from which you can select a variety of flashing color settings. Everything from "Police Car" to "Rock Concert" is included, the latter of which is a lighter flame. 

So, when you need a flashlight, you can always put your iPhone to work on double duty. And though the extra features are cool, they're really pretty much useless. Flashlight apps are cool and all, but I have to wonder, wouldn't just turning on your phone in the dark suffice?
