From On/Off to Precision Light: iPhone and Samsung Flashlight Hacks

iPhone and Samsung offer advanced flashlight controls beyond a simple on/off. iPhone Pro models let you adjust brightness and beam width via Control Center, can be accessed from the Lock Screen, and Siri can control the light; you can also enable Flash for Alerts. Samsung devices let you tweak brightness in Quick Settings, use Google Assistant to turn the flashlight on/off, keep the icon in the main Quick Settings panel, and enable flashlight notifications. These features enhance nighttime visibility, one-handed use, and notifications across both brands.

YouTube Music introduces carousel feature for improved user experience.

YouTube Music is testing a new carousel-focused redesign of Now Playing, which includes actions like thumbs up/down, Save, Share, Download, and Radio. The timeline scrubber is lower on the screen, and the play/pause button is now white instead of being themed. The new design could replace the YouTube Music overflow menu, which has become unwieldy. Few users currently have access to the redesign, which was previously rolled back in January.
