Flash light app on phones
Saw on TV last night that some flashlight apps on fancy cell phones have mal-ware/spyware and they need to be removed. I would google this and find out more but my track phone is just that, a pay as you go phone and nothing else. Just though it was worth looking into for those of you who have them.

Any app can have malware/spyware. This is why you have to be careful with permissions.
Some apps want to access everything on your phone for no particular reason. I hate that.
One more reason not to store sensitive data on your phone...such as credit cards.

My 5 yr old GGD showed me that on my phone one day....amazingly bright. I was happy, now a week later, I wanted to use the flashlight for something.....don't remember how she did it! Will have to wait til I see her again!

What did we do before these smart phones? I still smile when I see people talking while shopping, but I do put my grocery list on NOTES on my phone, only because handwritten lists inevitably ended up "forgotten" on kitchen counter!
Btw...ggd showed my again how to get the flashlight....so simple!
