I used the back tap to turn on my flashlight and I cannot turn it off

I am set up to turn on my flashlight by tapping the back of my Iphone11. However, I cannot turn it off.

Any suggestions?


Thanks, Jim

iPhone 5, iOS 10

From the article linked to above:


Turn the flashlight off or on with iPhone with Face ID or an iPad Pro

  1. Swipe down from the upper-right corner to open Control Center on your iPhone or iPad.
  2. Tap the Flashlight button .
  3. To turn off the flashlight, tap the Flashlight button  again.

If you don't see the Flashlight button when you open Control Center, you can change your settings to add it. Go to Settings > Control Center, then tap Flashlight in the list of available controls.

You can also turn on the flashlight from the Lock screen: Press and hold the Flashlight button in the bottom-left corner.
