Want to see rather than just hear that your iPhone
is ringing? You can, with a little help from the iPhone’s camera flash.
In just a few taps, you can set the LED flash for the
iPhone’s rear-facing camera to blink anytime a calls comes in, whenever a text
pops into your message inbox, or for any other iPhone event that would normally
set off an alert tone or vibration.
It’s a handy feature for iPhone users (particularly
hard-of-hearing ones) who can’t rely on audio alerts to screen notifications;
keep in mind, though, that you will (of course) have to lay your iPhone
face-down to see the camera flash blinking.
Just flick the "On" switch to turn the iPhone
camera flash into an alert light for incoming calls, texts, and more.
Also, you can’t set the camera LED to flash for specific
alerts. Instead, it’s an all-or-nothing deal.
Here’s how to do it:
Go to the iPhone home screen, then tap Settings, General,
Accessibility.
Scroll down until you see the “LED Flash for Alerts”
setting, then flick the switch to “On.”
Test it by asking a friend to call your iPhone—and when they
do, the flash on the read iPhone camera will start blinking in time to the
ringer.
