How to turn on flash for front facing camaras in Android/Iphone

 Another interesting feature that is being added now-a-days is the front-facing camera which lets you take your own pictures without the help of others and even make video calls to your loved ones. Unlike the primary cameras (on the rear side), these front-facing cameras doesn’t come with the flash support. So, if you wanted to take your picture during the night time, then you’d see nothing but a blank screen or a blurred image (sometimes).

Fortunately, few application developers have come forward with special apps that add a flashlight to your front-facing camera. Don’t think otherwise! Those apps will make your screen light even more brighter so that it reflects on your face and thus helps you in taking a better picture during the night times.

Adding Flash to the Front-Facing Camera of your Android Smartphone

Front Flash is a pretty useful app available for free at the Play store and it gives you the ability to capture photos using your front camera, even in the low-light. This app uses your device’s screen as a flash i.e., virtual flash, keeping your face clear of grain and make it visible even in pitch-black.
