How to Turn the Flashlight On or Off on Your iPhone?

Do you need to brighten up your environment? Your iPhone is equipped with a Flashlight. Therefore, you don’t need one. This is how you apply it.

Thanks to breakthrough devices like the iPhone, we can now make calls, use cameras, and access the internet all from one portable device. They’re also a practical substitute for the torch, another essential home appliance.

You can get by without a torch or torch if you own an iPhone. The phone’s camera flash LED may be a light source to illuminate poorly lit or dark spaces.

You can always find a light source if you own an iPhone. Let’s look at how to switch the iPhone torch on and off.

iPhone X and Newer: How to Turn the Flashlight On or Off

The following instructions will enable you to switch on or off the torch on your iPhone if it is a more modern model (such as an iPhone X or above):

1. When you get haptic feedback, press and hold on the Flashlight button on your iPhone’s lock screen briefly.
2. Point the white circle around the icon—indicating the torch is on—to where you need illumination.
3. Press and hold the torch symbol on the Lock Screen for a little while until you get haptic input to switch it off.
4. This will turn off the torch; the icon’s circle will vanish.

It’s also important to note that if you listen attentively, you may hear a sound notice when you switch it on or off.

In an emergency, having access to your torch via the Lock Screen is crucial, mainly if all you have on hand is your phone and no real torch.
