IPhone 13 Pro Flashlight turns off on its own

My IPhone 13 Pro Flashlight / torch shuts off by itself after around 13 seconds yet the icon or button still shows it as switched on. Switching on and off doesn't work the only fix is to open the camera app then close it and re-enable the torch which again only lasts 13 or so seconds.

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 15

Same situation for my IPhone 13 256gb I just bought on 10/30. For mine, it’s whenever I turn on the flashlight from the control menu and then turn the screen off (since I don’t need it on to do whatever task is at hand), the flashlight will automatically turn off after a period of around 10-20 seconds. Like you said, the flashlight icon remains on, but the flashlight actually isn’t on. Entering and exiting the camera app is a temporary solution, but this has to be a bug that requires urgent attention.
