hi there, would it be great if we have a unified android/ios app where we can run the flashlight in different benchmarks so we could post lux, lumens, runtime curve? it would be great for others to have an estimate in performance without the expensive lab instruments

Lux and runtime curve probably, but lumens no. Even apps for luxmeters are limited by the phone's light sensor, they only display up to a certain value and mine annoyingly is does not work with PWM- it displays Max reading every single time, even at 10 lumen low. That means the 10 lumen light( on low) reads 37000 lux and the 200 lumen LX2 reads. 9500.
