Luckily there it is still available via Cydia. I share your sentiments, apple is indeed pissing more and more people off lately, especially developers. It’s just the auto-brightness for crying out loud. I’d say just let us have what we want and stop policing the app store. Now I am just waiting for more jawdropping restrictions via the app store.

Oh, for cryin’ out loud, Apple. Honestly, I just can’t figure what you’re thinking with your draconian rules and regs and your M.I.A. basic features. Maintaining the stability of the OS is clearly important but to disallow changing screen brightness??

Its stupid how the thing that made the app better than all the other flash light apps (beside being free) is the reason that it got taken off the app store.

I am glad they took that app off, no offense meant here. But there are a lot of bad apps on the App store, but Apple the self proclaimed champion of “perfection” in everything they do, puts these apps on its app store. When will they start taking these apps off the app store, and put only top quality apps.

While I don’t agree with Apple’s actions in this case, there certainly have to be certain rules that all developers must follow, otherwise if everyone starts messing around with the OS it would lead to more instability and crashes.

This is precisely why I’ve not upgraded from 1.1.4. Apple’s rules are too strict to allow the apps I currently enjoy. I’m gonna wait quite a while before I blow away all the apps I have, just to upgrade to an OS that might do half.
