On: Basic Flashlight Tutorial

Electric Torch sounds awesome, like something from a D&D guide. I'm going to try to use that next time I ask my wife where the flashlight is. On an iPhone in the UK is the flashlight button labelled electric torch?

We call them personalTelephones here, old chap.

You call the Flashlight app, "personalTelephones"?

iPhones => personalTelephones

i => personal

Phones => Telephones

It's a joke based on British formal speech

I get that. They were responding to what they call the Flashlight App on the iPhone.

My Android has a button labelled "Torch". It doesn't set itself on fire when I toggle it, so I'm happy enough.
