Hello rcastardo,


Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities. We're happy to look into this with you. We understand that you're looking to remove the flashlight from your Lock Screen. Reviewing the article below, we don't see any options for removing the flashlight or camera access from your Lock Screen.


Personalize your iPhone Lock Screen


Edit a Lock Screen

After you create a custom Lock Screen, you can make changes to it.

1. Touch and hold the Lock Screen until the Customize button appears at the bottom of the screen.

2. Swipe to the Lock Screen you want to edit, then tap the Add New button.

3. Do any of the following: 

- Choose a wallpaper: Tap an option in one of the categories (for example, Featured, Suggested Photos, or Photo Shuffle) or tap a button at the top of the screen (Photos, People, Photo Shuffle, Emoji, or Weather). If you want to add a photo to your Lock Screen, see Customize your Lock Screen photo.

- Add widgets: Tap the box below the time, then tap the widgets you want to add.

- Select a photo style for a Lock Screen with a photo: Swipe to change the color filter (for example, Vibrant, Tone, Deep, and Vapor), the background for the photo (Natural, Black & White, Duotone, Color Wash, and so on), and the font for the time.

- Add a multilayered effect for a Lock Screen with a photo: Tap the More button at the bottom right, then choose Depth Effect (not available for all photos).

- Change the Focus: Tap Focus near the bottom of the wallpaper, then choose another Focus from the list.

- Change the style of the time: Tap Customize, tap the time, then select a font, color, and shade by tapping the Custom Color button.

Note: You can also add new wallpaper in Settings .


If you'd like, you can provide feedback to Apple about wanting the ability to remove these items from your Lock Screen. Please visit Product Feedback to submit your comments.


Best regards.
