I'd love a tweak to bring back the ability to turn the flashlight off by tapping the camera grabber like in ios 7.

Just a tweak idea for someone, or if anyone know a way to get it back I'd be grateful. Used to never use the flashlight, then I got used to it, then they removed this and it's just annoying when I'm used to tapping the grabber to have to open CC to turn it off. And raising the camera grabber most of the way up isn't any better.
 
Is Activator working on iOS 8?

I've avoided all the other methods since iOS 6 and just used Activator to assign the Flashlight to a short hold on my Power Button (on and off).

Don't think Activator can affect the camera grabber though, but IDK.

I'm sure there's acway to use activator to turn the flashlight on/off, I was hoping for something more "built in" to iOS. Thanks for the idea
 
I'd really like to see this functionality come back as well. So convenient and I'm not sure why Apple ditched it.
