- Go to Settings >>> General >>> Accessibility preferences. Scroll down and you'll see LED Flash for Alerts. Disable it. It's not really the flash BTW, it just uses the same light (but not same intensity). --Hofhof (talk) 13:40, 7 April 2018 (UTC)
Many thanks for this, but where di I find 'settings'? They are not in any "Preferences" pane that I can find.194.126.80.63 (talk) 10:32, 8 April 2018 (UTC)
Fine, thanks for that, but I have looked at Preferences and still cannot find the answer to my problem. HELP!!!194.126.80.63 (talk) 06:26, 9 April 2018 (UTC)
- On your iPhone, the settings are the grey cog icon. Google "iphone settings icon" to see what it looks like. If you can't find it, swipe down on the right of your phone's screen to bring up spotlight search, and type in "settings". Once you have found and opened up Settings, follow Hofhof's instructions above. Settings, scroll down to and select General, then select Accessibility, and scroll down to the "Hearing" section, where you can press the toggle next to "LED Flash for Alerts" and set it to "Off".
