On locked screen there are symbols for flashlight and camera. Neither feature activates using touchscreen. Is it a bug or a setting I’ve missed?

Did you long press on either one? They should work with a long press. If not, try a forced restart and see if that helps.

Yes! Long press is the ticket. Makes sense to avoid accidentally turning feature on. Thank you.
