camera flash

ISO 13.0 iPhone pro (11) the flash is on auto - even when on it only flashes in low light - is there a way to switch this to have the flash activate when you take a photo and have the flash on? (Vs auto)

iPhone 11 Pro Max

Hey, staciface.


I see that the flash is always on when you take a photo with your iPhone 11. You'd like to turn it off, and I'm glad to help.

I am equally baffled.


Having said that, there is a real kludgy way to force the flash on: force the camera into night mode by pointing it at a dark area, then click on the night mode icon at the top, which then brings up controls at the bottom. Click on the night mode icon at the bottom, click on the flash, and you can force it on, which remains on when you move camera out of the night mode zone.
