i just upgraded to an iPhone 8plus, from a 6plus. Now operating iOS version 11.2.6. When using the LR camera, the flash is grayed out. Will not let me use flash at all!! HELP
Hi Christopher,
The flash is not available in Raw (DNG) mode in iOS 11. This is an iOS issue and affects all camera apps, not just Lightroom. For example, Camera+ has the same issue.
We we can only wait for an update from Apple to fix this.
In the meanwhile, you can work around this by switching to JPG mode if you need to use the flash.

Mike,
Thank you for your input, I had my suspicions it was an iOS 11 issue.
Thanks again,

This has been fixed in the recently released version 3.2.1 of Lightroom CC. Please give it a try and let us know if you are still seeing the issue. Thanks!

If anyone is NOT seeing the fix, please note that iOS 11.3 is required to see the fix Jeffrey mentioned.
