Shutterstock There are several ways to troubleshoot your iPhone if its flashlight isn't working.
- If the flashlight won't work on your iPhone, you can usually troubleshoot the issue in a matter of minutes and get your trusty light shining again.
- A nearly exhausted battery can prevent an iPhone's flashlight from working, especially if the phone is very warm or cold.
- If you cannot find your flashlight in your iPhone Control Center, you may have accidentally removed it, but you can quickly add it back in the Settings app.

Even the most prepared people rarely walk around with a flashlight in their pockets, but these days, there's really no reason to when our smartphones have a decent flashlight built right in.
While not bright enough to fill a large room with light or to cast a beam dozens of feet ahead down a hiking trail, an iPhone's flashlight creates more than enough light to help you find your dropped keys, read in a tent, light up the sidewalk ahead of you, or rock out at a concert.
