WeeFlashlight: iOS 5 Notification Center Custom Widget Turns Your iPhone Into a Flashlight

We have seen a number of third party custom widgets for iOS 5 Notification center.
But the list would be incomplete without a custom widget to enable LED Flash that turns your iPhone into a flashlight. So we were not surprised to find WeeFlashlight on Cydia, which allows you to enable or disable LED Flash via iOS 5 Notification center.Here's the description of the custom widget from Cydia:
Use your iPhone as a flashlight and turn it ON or OFF right from the Notification Center. More easy then any other torch app from the AppStore. (This tweak only works for devices, which have a camera flash build inside)
After installing the custom widget, you should see the status of the LED Flash in the Notification Center, by tapping on Flashlight you can enable or disable the LED Flash. Since it is available in the Notification Center, you can now access it by just swiping on the status bar from any application.
We've seen jailbreak tweaks like FlashLock that allow you to enable or disable LED Flash right from the Lock screen. But now that iOS 5 allows you to quickly access the Camera from the lock screen, WeeFlashlight seems like a good alternative.
Note: This works only on iPhone 4 as it has the LED Flash (and will work on iPhone 4S in the future when it is jailbroken).
As always, let us know what you think of WeeFlashlight custom widget in the comments
