Customize your iOS Control Center

 

Your iPhone or iPad has a control center that can quickly give you access to some of your most frequently used features.  My control center screen is almost full as I have the usual stuff there like Airplane mode, Bluetooth, Music control but I have added things like hearing aid control, magnifier, QR code reader, wallet and Do Not Disturb While Driving.

You can easily customize your control center:

  1.  Open Settings on your iPhone or iPad
  2. Tap on Control Center
  3. Now tap on “Customize Controls” where you will be able to add or remove options from Control Center

Once you are there you will see a list of all the features you can add or subtract from the control center simply by pressing on the + or – next to the feature.  Here’s a list of all of them:

  • Flashlight
  • TImer
  • Calculator
  • Camera
  • Home
  • Alarm
  • Magnifier
  • Wallet
  • Do Not Disturb While Driving
  • Hearing
  • Low Power Mode
  • Apple TV Remote
  • Stopwatch
  • Scan QR Code
  • Accessibility Shortcuts
  • Guided access
  • Notes
  • Screen recording
  • Text Size
  • Voice Memos
