Why does the flashlight on my NEW iphone 6s no longer work?

[iMore Question]

The flashlight icon is no longer highlighted and it does not work.

Sounds like an issue for an Apple Genius Bar to diagnose...

Does the flash work on the camera?

Is it possible you need to update the app or iOS.

Stock flashlight. No app.

I would try Reset All Settings.
Reset All Settings
Go to Settings >General >Reset >Reset All Settings. This resets to default everything in Settings, including notifications, alerts, brightness, and clock settings like wake up alarms.
