Let's face it, we've all been there.

Enter the Control Center: Your One-Stop Torch-Taming Hub
The iPhone 12's Control Center is like your phone's personal toolbox, and the flashlight is one of its handiest tools. Here's how to find it:
Tip: Note one practical point from this post.
-
Give it a Swipe: With your thumb, swipe down from the top-right corner of your screen. Presto! Control Center appears.
-
Spot the Torch! Look for a little flashlight icon – it might be glowing if your torch is on.
-
Tap to Terminate: A simple tap on the icon and your torch will be extinguished, plunging you back into sweet, sweet darkness (or at least until you need it again).
Bonus Tip: If you find yourself using the flashlight all the time (no judgment, night owls!), you can actually add the torch icon directly to your lock screen for even faster access. Just head over to Settings > Control Center and add it to your "Included Controls." Easy peasy!
Tip: Reread the opening if you feel lost.
Alternative Torch Termination Techniques: Because Options are Always Nice
While the Control Center is our champion, there are a couple of other ways to shut down your iPhone 12's torch:
Tip: Skim only after you’ve read fully once.
-
Siri Savior: Hey Siri, ever heard of the on/off switch? (Just kidding, Siri is super helpful). Press and hold the side button on your iPhone and ask Siri to "turn off the flashlight." Poof! Illumination extinguished.
-
Lock Screen Surprise: On the lock screen itself, you might see a little flashlight icon in the bottom left corner. Long press this icon, and your torch will be a goner.
Remember: These are just alternative methods. The Control Center is generally the quickest and easiest way to go.
Tip: Stop when you find something useful.
