It makes you feel that you have a handy conventional battery-operated torch with physical hardware button access! it's tiny, small, free and runs silently as a background service. Absolutely no root required!This app uses Accessibility services
Torchie requires a service to run in background to intercept PHYSICAL VOLUME BUTTON KEY presses. Since a normal 'Service' cannot intercept Hardware Key presses, an 'Accessibility Service' is needed for this purpose. It does not do anything apart from intercepting Volume Key presses. It is also to be noted that, without internet access, information if collected may also be within the device and not sent out threatening your privacy.
