I...had no idea you could even adjust the brightness lol.
I only use an iPhone for work, and Android typically has no brightness adjustment so I made no assumption iOS would support it either. Fun.
:) I even made a shortcut to set flashlight brightness to about 1% which is lower than it’s possible to set it via UI. It’s a little buggy hence employing a very advanced technique of covering the majority of the LED with a finger. Cheers to your next late night bathroom run or whatever.
Android only started with the brightness adjustment from version 13. So any phone with Android 13 and higher should have it.
Then I am left only to assume my Pixel 6a doesn't support it. At least not in any manner I know to be intuitive.
