It’s quite easy to enable or disable flashlight on your iPhone, all you need to do is swipe up from the bottom to access the Control Center, and tap on the Flashlight icon.

There is a much easier way to turn it off from the lock screen, without accessing the Control Center. Simply tap or slide up on the camera icon at the bottom right corner of the screen to turn it off. It’s a much faster way to turn it off. Since iPhone’s Camera needs to accesses LED flash, it automatically turns off the flashlight feature. Even when the iPhone is unlocked, I find it easier to press the Sleep/Wake button and tap on the camera icon to turn it off.
