More than 500 iPhone users have told the official Apple online community that they have a very strange problem with their device.
Ο their iPhone lens lights up without them wanting to. The problem is with the iPhone X, iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max and iPhone XR, and it started when Apple decided to use the shortcuts for the lens and the camera on the lock screen.
Users seem to accidentally tap the lens icon at the bottom left of the screen with their thumb or palm. An iPhone X user reported that the flashlight turns on even when he has the phone in the front pocket of his pants and is just walking. As he stated, this has the effect of raising the temperature of the mobile phone and at the same time wasting energy from the mobile phone battery.
The shortcut on the lock screen can not be turned off or moved, but there are several ways to solve this problem, if it affects you. One solution is to turn off the "Tap to Wake" feature by going to "Settings - General - Accessibility". If you accidentally turned on the lens manually, you can swipe slightly to the left of the lock screen to turn it off. If you make a lot of traffic of course, there is a chance to turn on the camera.
