   I had a Motorola phone with "flick to turn on flashlight". That was nice. A single flick, not a vaguely defined "shake".

     @jrdepriest @MeaningfulBits @rixx It's super nice and all phones would have it but for the Motorola patent. 🤬

     And AFAIK free "ROMs" like LineageOS are too chicken to just ignore the patent and offer it on all devices. Or even as an add-on app FFS.

     @rixx they have been trying everything for "shake to do..." First it was "take a picture" then "report an error" then something else, now this. SMDH.
