There are times when you need to quickly bring up the flashlight on your iPhone<\/span>. Maybe you’re trying to make your way to the bathroom in the middle of the night or you need to find the keys in your bag to unlock your front door. Whatever the reason, the faster you can turn on your torch the better — and that’s where this hidden feature comes in handy.<\/p>\n

Back with iOS 14, Apple introduced Back Tap for the iPhone, an accessibility feature that allows you to quickly perform certain actions — take a screenshot or launch your camera — by tapping the back of your phone. Essentially, it turns the entire back of your iPhone into a button — and you can quickly turn on your flashlight<\/span>\u00a0with it.<\/p>\n

All you need to do is enable the feature, which is found in your accessibility settings. Read on to learn now to set up your flashlight with Back Tap for the iPhone.<\/p>\n

How to set up your flashlight with Back Tap on iOS<\/h2>\n

On your compatible iPhone (iPhone 8 or later), launch the Settings application and go to Accessibility<\/strong> Touch<\/strong> Back Tap<\/strong>. Now you have the option to launch your action (in this case, your flashlight) with either two <\/strong>or three taps<\/strong>. Although two taps is obviously faster, I would suggest three taps because if you fidget with your phone, it’s easy to accidentally trigger the accessibility feature.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Once you choose a tap option, select the Flashlight<\/strong> option. You’ll know you’ve successfully selected the option when a blue checkmark appears to the right of the action. Once you exit the Settings application, you can try out the newly enabled Back Tap feature by tapping the back of your iPhone two or three times to turn on your flashlight. To turn off the flashlight, you can tap on the back of your iPhone as well, but you can also just turn it off from your lock screen if that’s easier.<\/p>\n

Beside the flashlight, you can set up Back Tap to trigger a number of other actions, like opening the Control Center, taking you back home, muting your audio, turning the volume up and down, running any shortcuts you’ve downloaded or created and more.<\/p>\n
