My guess it is cheaper to do software features rather than a physical led .. cutting costs at every corner

Every phone has an LED for the camera flash.
-
On the front though?
*Huh mine does, I never use the selfie camera. Anyone else seeing spots?
-
How is that relevant to the OP's question?
-
One of my old LGs would flash an LED based on conditions and I could include the camera flash as an option. I assume he is implying that since every phone with a camera has a flash, that it could be strobed.

They could make it blink with software to notify you.

My phone (galaxy z fold 4) has this feature built in, it's under accessibility. I believe iphones can do it too.
-
For the fold 4, do you know if there is there a way to customize a color for each specific app?
-
Color? Like of the LED? There isn't it's just the camera flash
