Foobar2000 Copilot Lite is now available in the Microsoft App Store. This is the free version of Foobar2000 Copilot.

The flashlight feature was removed from the original app, since most people already have a flashlight app.  Windows 10 mobile includes a flashlight option built into Settings. I originally put that option into the app since many times I listen to my audio system while sitting on my sofa in the dark.

The Microsoft Advertising ad component was also removed from the app. Only the cross platform advertising adDuplex component is used.  You will see an adDuplex ad now at the top of the Search page of the app, there are no other ads used anywhere else in the app.

Removing the flashlight feature and the Microsoft ad control allowed removing almost all the store permissions needed for the app.

The flashlight option needed camera permissions since the LED light on Windows phone is a part of the camera module.  Hence why all flashlight apps in the Windows Phone store require camera permissions. I may take out the flashlight option the next time I update Foobar2000 Copilot as well.

Because the app uses your Wi-Fi connection to communicate with and control your Foobar2000 server, it still needs network permissions.

Also it needs Internet access if you view the online user manual thru the app using Wi-Fi. The user manual in the old version v1.2.0.0 was removed from the app itself and placed online on this website. The user manual is online so it can be edited without having to get the app re-certified by Microsoft for each edit. The online manual uses the Google translation widget to provide different language translations.
