On iPhone, you can turn on the flashlight with Control Center → Flashlight. Tap the torch icon in Control Center or on the Lock Screen. It sits in the Handy Extras group and is one of the iPhone shortcuts people look up most, so it is worth committing to memory — it works the same way across almost every app that follows standard iPhone conventions.
Open the app or screen where you want to turn on the flashlight.
Press Control Center → Flashlight.
Tap the torch icon in Control Center or on the Lock Screen.
