Hello, I think what you've created here is a great representation of what Android 13 is capable of, and with future updates I'm going to guess a press+hold on the quicksettings shortcut for the flashlight will open a flashlight slider, or a slider will be implemented into the shortcut. Either way, here's what I'd like to see in the meantime with your app:

A way to set the value to '1%(or lowest value),' '25%', and '100%' (dimmest setting, nighttime, daytime, etc.) I found that with my Pixel 6, the minimum brightness was best for lighting up a small room at night without blinding anything and anyone around you, around 25% is sort of a middle-ground with any further increases causing exponentially less real-world improvements in light, though there is and will be a noticable increase in light when jumping between 25% and 100%.

Along with that, a simple on/off switch would be nice along with the app having a memory of what the last brightness value was when the app was last open.

Keep developing, we need it, -Curtis

I had similiar ideas and I wanted a more advanced interface, so I experimented a bit and wrote my own app. So maybe this could be interesting to you: https://github.com/cyb3rko/flashdim

Until it's published on Google Play and F-Droid you can download an apk file in the releases tab and test it out :)

And thank you @polodarb for the app, gave you a credit in the README as source of inspiration. 💛

Hey, nice and useful application, many thanks! Do you plan to update UI and make it's by Material You guidelines or something?
