It’s a bit annoying when you have a power cut and - after much searching - find that your 8plus has had the torch app removed… and from your OH’s too.
Anybody else had that problem?
And recommendation for a good free replacement?

Can't you not add it back? Settings > Control Centre > Torch? Sometimes updates edit these things.

I am sure that both have the fix. Free alternative (that has more features, too):

Of the two, my favorite is also the second one.
It surprises me that Apple can include such a plain-vanilla flashlight, when other flashlights include very useful features.
