A couple of questions about mobile controls

I am trying to make a game that affects in real life objects, such as vibrating controllers. Right now I am at the mobile part, and I have a couple of questions:

Can I possibly turn on flashlight (phone’s);
Can I use HapticService on phones? I saw a feature request, but I don’t know what happened to that one.

I’m not sure about the flashlight but that would be cool! For the vibrating try using IsVibrationSupported, then GetMotor to get the motor, then make it vibrate and see if your phone vibrates! I’ve never tried this before though.

Can’t see “phone” mentioned anywhere.

Ya, that’s the problem. You could try anyways though and if it works then you could make a tutorial, if not then recommend a gamepad for mobile users.
