Is there any way to make the flashlight light up before taking a photo and not only after I click on the screen to make photo? On my Android phone I am able to turn on the flashlight without a problem, set the phone how I want it and take a picture with flash still on, but on the iPhone I can't find this option.

There is no problem when recording - the flashlight lights up immediately when I turn it on on app but before I click record.

This isn't possible on an iPhone. If the flashlight is on it shuts off as soon as you launch the camera app.. Not sure if 3rd party apps allow it but the native camera app doesn't

I also tested camera in Lightroom - didn't work either. Well... I will be looking for a different app then. Thank you! :)

Wondering what the advantage of that would be? Are you using it as a modeling light when taking photos?
