Where did the flash light disappear to?
It was there the first time I saw the screen 2 days ago (brand new user here.) Now whether I swipe right or left I don't see it.
iPhone 13 mini, iOS 15

Without knowing which iPhone you have and which software version it's running, when the phone is unlocked you can try swiping down from the top right corner of the screen to bring down the control center. As long as the control center hasn't been customized, you should see the flashlight button there.
Normally, it also displays on the lock screen (flashlight is usually on the bottom left and the camera button on the bottom right).

No worries and glad I could help. The lock screen is the screen that shows on the device when you first pick it up or press a button. This assumes that you have enabled a passcode to unlock your phone or are using Face ID to unlock it using biometrics.
Ah, there it is! Thanks. My next research will be how to change the backgrounds of the "lock screen" and the home screens, or whatever they are called (on PCs the = desktops.) So far all the hosts of youtube videos talk and move waaaaayyyy too quickly!
Thanks for your help! I get to read at my own speed.
Check out this link for a walk through for changing the background/wallpaper of your home and lock screens.
Thanks, I found it swiping down from the right. I don't know what the "lock screen" is or how to get there, but that is where I recall first seeing the flashlight.
BTW, when I first set up my question at the bottom I must answer 2 questions, the first being what device. So I select iPhone13. I wonder why it asks if you can't see what I selected. Strange....
Thanks.
