iOS 18 Introduces Advanced Flashlight Controls

New features allow users to adjust the beam's width and intensity directly from the Dynamic Island and Lock Screen.

  • Users can control the flashlight's beam width with a horizontal swipe and its intensity with a vertical swipe.
  • The new flashlight interface integrates with the Dynamic Island on compatible iPhones.
  • The flashlight can be activated and controlled even when the iPhone is locked.
  • iOS 18 supports a wide range of iPhone models, though not all features are available on older devices.
  • The update is currently in beta and expected to launch fully in September.
