The flashlight and the camera are missing from the Locked Screen

Hi not sure if anyone has this problem yet on an iPhone X, but the camera and the flashlight buttons on iPhone’s locked screen, are gone.

How do you get them back?

In the end, the "3D Touch" in "General" -> "Accessibility", has to be "ON" for those two little buttons, flashlight and camera, to reside on the locked screen, if "3D Touch" in not "ON" you'll not have them there.

Good find, and this makes sense because the ON/OFF activation of these buttons requires 3D Touch (i.e. you can't just tap them to turn on the flashlight or camera, you must press them ... took me awhile to figure out why they weren't working).
