Sieghard is correct. If you go to Settings, control panel, custom, you can add 
or deselect the items that you want quick access to, by doing the 3 finger 
swipe up from the bottom of the screen. You can also have flashlight in the 
control panel for quick access. By doing the 3 finger swipe up; you can turn 
flashlight off until you need it again.  I’m curious..Do you use the app Seeing 
AI? If so, do you leave the app in the app switcher? If you answered yes to the 
above questions; Open the Seeing AI app, tap on menue at the top left, swipe 
down to settings & tap to open, swipe down to manage lighting & tap to select . 
This allows you to decide when the flashlight is needed. With the feature 
deselected the app decides when the flashlight is needed, because more light is 
necessary to complete a task. Hope this is helpful. Oh, & as for having access 
to  the camera from the lock screen..I don’t know a fix for that annoyance for 
you.
