    Uploaded on November 6, 2023, Carterpcs revealed a recent incident
    where his iPhone 15 action button accidentally triggered the phone’s flashlight while in his pocket.

    “Today the iPhone 15 action button almost killed me,” he joked before stating it might be a little dramatic.

    Carter went on to he began [sic] to feel “searing pain” in his thigh while in class and sat there for a bit before realizing that it could
    have been due to the iPhone’s flashlight being on.

    After connecting the dots, Carter was able to turn off his flashlight
    and save his leg from any major injury due to the heat.

    He did have a suggestion to share with Apple, though. “I feel like
    that’s a pretty easy fix. If the flashlight’s been on for an extended period of time, and the camera doesn’t see anything — just turn it off after like 5 minutes,” he said.

    Whether or not Carter changed his action button settings after this
    incident is unknown, but it’s safe to assume that he’ll be quicker to shut off his flashlight the next time it gets activated on accident.

    "Searing pain"?

    And then "almost killed" and "major injury"?

    From an LED?

    Please.

    A quick web search for "accidentally turned on iPhone flashlight" shows
    this was happening *long* before the iPhone 15 came along.

    There are two kinds of people...
    a. iKooks
    b. Normal people

    Normal people try to understand, identify, and solve problems.
    While iKooks just complain they hate everything about Apple products
    (which is really what they're doing when they protest every Apple truth).

    While you insecure iTrolls worry about any truth about Apple hurting what they consider the inviolable god-like stature of Apple products, the rest of us can wonder if there is a way to implement what the article suggests.

    *Turn the iPhone flashlight off after a period of inactivity.*

    How do you define "period of inactivity"...

    ...for a FLASHLIGHT.

    Imagine the power has gone out and you're left with only your iPhone's flashlight for illumination.

    And it suddenly turns off without warning.
