Flash Light icon gone

I have the IPhone SE. The flash light icon has disappeared. It shows up in the control center with a red line next to it but I can not do anything with it. How do I get it back? It does not show up with a green circle next to it anywhere


iPhone SE, iOS 15

Hey SmokeyChibi,


If you haven't already, try restarting your iPhone. This can often times resolve unknown issues like this: Restart your iPhone - Apple Support


Are you able to take photos with flash? We ask because it sounds there may be an issue with the LED. We recommend reaching out to Apple Support directly if a restart doesnt help, or if flash is not working in the Camera app: Get Support


Take care.
