Flashlight on Lockscreen

Removing Flashlight and Camera and Music from Lockscreen IPhone 14 Pro and IOS 16.3

Flashlight inadvertently comes on when picking IPhone up with left hand and setting it back down. This is bad.

It is not possible to remove the shortcut to the Flashlight on the lock screen.


But maybe it could help to disable the Raise To Wake function. Raise To Wake turns on the screen when the phone is lifted, or pulled out of the pocket, or a similar movement is made. In this way, you prevent the screen from turning on before you double-tap the screen yourself.


You can disable Rase To Wake here:

Settings -> Display & Brightness -> Disable Raise To Wake.

You're welcome.


Have you also disabled Tap To Wake?

Settings > Accessibility > Touch. Deactivate Tap To Wake.


When Raise To Wake and Tap To Wake are disabled, the screen can ONLY be turned on if you press the Power Button.
