Uno Support for Windows.Devices.Lights

Lamp

The following APIs are implemented on Android and iOS:

  • GetDefaultAsync
  • IsEnabled
  • BrightnessLevel

WASM does not offer an API to control the device flashlight, yet.

Implementation notes

On iOS, in case the device supports torch, BrightnessLevel is fully supported. In case the device has only flash, any non-zero BrightnessLevel will result in full brightness of the flashlight.

On Android, flashlight brightness cannot be controlled, hence any non-zero BrightnessLevel results in full brightness of the flashlight.

Usage notes

Make sure to dispose of the Lamp instance, as implementation on both iOS and Android uses unmanaged resources and not disposing of them would cause a memory leak. This is in line with UWP, where the Lamp needs to be disposed as well.
