To turn off the flashlight on an iPhone, you can use any of the following simple methods:
1. Using Control Center
- Wake up your iPhone by tapping the screen or pressing a button.
- For iPhone 8 or earlier, swipe up from the bottom of the screen; for iPhone X or later, swipe down from the top-right corner to open Control Center.
- Tap the flashlight icon (it will be highlighted when on) to turn it off. The icon will become dark gray when the flashlight is off
2. From the Lock Screen (iPhone X and later)
- Wake up your iPhone screen.
- Swipe slightly or fully left on the lock screen to open the Camera app; this action automatically turns off the flashlight
3. Using Siri
- If Siri is enabled, say "Hey Siri, turn off the flashlight" or "Hey Siri, flashlight off" to switch it off
4. For iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max (Action Button)
- Press and hold the Action button to toggle the flashlight off or on
These methods are quick and do not require unlocking the phone. The Control Center method is the most common and straightforward way to turn off the flashlight on any iPhone model
