In this video, I'm going to be showing
0:03
you a few ways to put the flashlight of
0:06
your iPhone to good use. Come with me.
0:17
The first thing that of course everyone
0:19
needs a flashlight for in their iPhone
0:21
is for taking pictures. Go to your
0:26
and at the top here you see this
0:32
When it is set to an icon with an A,
0:35
your flashlight is in auto. And that
0:38
means anytime you're using this, the
0:40
camera itself will try to determine what
0:43
scenes need the flashlight to come on or
0:46
not. If you tap on that icon again,
0:50
flash off. This means regardless of what
0:53
scene you're shooting, in broad
0:55
daylight, at night, in pitch darkness,
0:58
the flashlight is not going to come on.
1:00
There are phones that allow you to set
1:02
your flashlight on for every and
1:06
anything. In this particular model, the
1:09
iPhone 12 mini, that option is not
1:12
available. But the idea is this. in your
1:15
smartphone camera, in your iPhone
1:17
camera, you can always determine how and
1:20
when the flashlight works. Personally,
1:24
I'll just leave it at auto.
1:27
So, that's the first scenario.
1:29
Another scenario is this. It's
1:33
You need a flashlight for seeing about
1:36
in the dark. How can you activate your
1:40
flashlight for seeing around in the dark
1:42
when you need it? From your home screen,
1:45
double tap on your home screen to wake
1:47
it up. You see this here? That's the
1:50
flashlight icon. It's preconfigured this
1:53
way. To use your LED light as a
1:56
flashlight in the dark, press, hold,
1:58
briefly, and release to turn it on.
2:02
Press hold briefly release to turn it
2:05
off. This is very handy. You don't need
2:07
to unlock your iPhone to be able to do
2:09
this. You're in a situation you need a
2:11
light. That's all you just have to do.
2:14
Press hold briefly, release.
2:16
Press hold briefly to turn off. Now,
2:19
there is one more thing that you can put
2:21
your iPhone flashlight or LED light to
2:24
use for for notifications to notify you
2:27
when calls and messages are coming in.
2:31
You have to set that up though because
2:33
it doesn't come by default.
2:39
Scroll down to accessibility.
2:42
Scroll down to audio and visual.
2:50
That's audio and visual here. Tap on
2:56
to visual LED flash for alerts. You
3:05
Also toggle this on. Flash while
3:08
unlocked. So if whenever your phone is
3:11
unlocked, it will flash flash in silent
3:13
mode if you want that.
3:21
let's see if that works. I'm going to
3:24
place a call to this line.
3:31
So the flash is being used to notify me
3:37
Again, don't forget you go to your
3:44
scroll down to audio and visual,
3:48
and then scroll all the way down to
3:50
visual LED flash for alerts, and make
3:53
sure that everything here is green. And
3:57
that's it. Anytime a call comes in or a
4:00
message comes in, your LED light serves
4:04
as a notification. It's good for
4:06
scenarios where you need to be notified,
4:08
but you cannot afford to have your audio
4:11
on. You don't want audio disruption or
4:14
distractions, but you want to be able to
4:15
know that a call is coming in or a
4:17
message has come in. That's it, guys.
4:20

4:22
your iPhone's LED light to good use.
