In the following paragraphs, we list the top 4 solutions to fix iPhone flashlight won't turn on in iOS 11. Try them in turn.
If you're pretty sure that there's something wrong with the iOS software and it is this glitch that prevents the iPhone's flashlight from turning on, it is recommended to fix the iOS system failure by addressing its root causes. EaseUS MobiXpert is a professional iOS system repair software, dedicated to repairing all kinds of iOS system problems.
It provides two repair options. It is suggested to try the "Standard Repair" option first. And if the operating system is severely damaged and the "Standard Repair" function doesn't work at all, then you are expected to try the "Deep Repair" feature.
Step 1. Launch EaseUS MobiXpert on your computer, choose "System Repair" from the Home page.
Step 2. Then, choose "iOS/iPadOS System Repair" from the new screen.
Step 3. Connect your iPhone or iPad to the computer and choose "Standard Repair." If you want a thorough repair, you can choose "Deep Repair."
Step 4. Confirm your device model and click "Next" to move on. Then, EaseUS MobiXpert will download a firmware for you, which will take a while. If you have installed a firmware before using this software, you can directly click "Verify" to continue.
Step 5. Then, click "Repair Now" to start the repair process. After the repair completes, you can check your device and restart it for use.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red “slide to power off” slider appears, and then swipe right to power off your iPhone. After 30 seconds later, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
If you are unable to restart your iPhone, you need to force restart it. Try below steps:
Force restart iPhone 6 and former: press and hold down the Home button and the wake/sleep button until Apple logo appears.
Force restart iPhone 7 and 7 Plus: press the Home button and the volume down button until Apple logo appears.

iPhone flashlight won't turn on usually due to the software problem. Therefore, updating your iPhone to the latest iOS version is a way worth trying. The new system version will fix the bugs in the previous. Before performing an update, make sure your device is fully charged and connect to a Wi-Fi network.
Go to Settings > General > Software Update> check if there is a new version available, if yes, download and install it on your iPhone.
If all solutions above can't fix the issue effectively, the final way you can have a try is to restore your iPhone with an iTunes backup. Please note that you must disable Find My iPhone by going to “Settings” > “iCloud” > “Find My iPhone” and turn it off.
