Flashlight icon disappeared w IOS 17 update I have tried following the instructions for previous answers to a disappearing Flashlight question. When I go to control in settings, and the section I was told to go to, the Flashlight does not have a green button. There is a red button, which if I press asked me if I want to delete the Flashlight. I do not want to delete the Flashlight. I do however want to see the Flashlight icon on my screen. How can I get it back?

Flashlight icon missing from lock screen on iPhone SE Hello, I’ve been searching for the answer as to why I have a flashlight icon on my iPhone XR, but not on my SE from the lock screen? I know how to access control center from the lock screen but I like how you can just tap and hold the flashlight button instead of having to open control center and then pushing flashlight (first world problems, right…) Any help would be greatly appreciated!

See the pics below which are self-explanatory to Remove and Add Flashlight on the Locked Screen. Ensure your Screen is locked (Open with Face ID / Touch ID), Do not Swipe Up to Open.

Remove Flashlight

Add Flashlight
