Flashlight icon missing

I recently purchased an iPhone 8 but found out that the flashlight icon is missing. I checked the Control Center and it is there, but there is a red circle beside it, and when I touched that it only gave me the options to remove it which I didn’t do. Please help!

iPhone 6, iOS 12

Hi, The red circle means removing it from the control centre, if removed it will be in the list to add to control centre which is further down the screen page. First thing to try is a restart. In quick succession press Volume Up, Volume Down, then press and hold the Side Button keep holding the screen will go black . Release the Side Button when you see the Apple logo. If restarting doesn’t help then check to see if the flash works on the camera app.
