Camera flash I have a month old iPhone 13 pro. Camera is saying flash is disabled - battery too low to use need to charge. Says this even when phone is at 100%. Any fixes?

iPhone 11 disabled camera flash due to running low on battery Hey, I just detected a very strange thing - the flash was disabled referring to running low on battery. However, my phone is 80% charged. I had to reboot the phone and the flash is not disabled anymore. I saw others raising this issue but I didn't see any official response from Apple. Could you please suggest something. By the way, I bought the phone on the release date last October and since then the batter degraded to 90%. Could this be in relation to the issue? Thanks,

Flash not working on iPhone 11 I am experiencing the same issue reported here where the camera flash is disabled: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/251086705 (thread is locked to new comments.) The phone reports that the camera flash cannot be used when the battery is low, and does this even with the battery at 100%. It has been doing this for a while. I’ve updated to the latest iOS and restarted the phone multiple times. The flash works fine as a flashlight. Any ideas on how to solve this?
