   Hi Carlos,   
      
   Thanks for explaining how your camera app flash works, which is how most   
   work, so I agree with your characterization of how most app flashes work.   
      
   My point is to the developer who is asking us to test his camera app.   
   My point is for him to strongly consider an on:off:on:off:on:off flash.   
      
   The way I'd recommend he set it up, is he'd have in "Settings" a switch for   
    SimpleFlashGUI=yes/no   
      
   If the user wants the simple flash GUI described above, they set it to yes.   
   If they want the GUI you described (which most camera apps do), they leave   
   it at the default.   
      
   Remember, I'm one of the few people on this ng who have tested every single   
   free adfree camera app known to the group, where that's the one feature I   
   found lacking in almost all of them.   
      
   It's why I suggested it to the OP who is a developer of a camera app.   
   He can add it and then his camera app is DIFFERENTIATED from the others.   
      
   Everybody wins.
