iOS 11: How Control Center works

Jason Snell, Macworld:

Control Center in iOS 11 is different. Really different. And when you upgrade from iOS 10, it will take some getting used to. But as someone who has been using it for a few months now, let me declare: It’s better. The new Control Center is simultaneously simpler and more powerful. And best of all, you can customize it to do what you want —— and hide most of what you don’t care about.

I agree with Jason. I think the new Control Center does take getting used to. But Jason solves that problem. His walkthrough makes things pretty clear.

  1. It took the great writing of jason Snell to clear up some issues that Apple doesn’t know how to explain.

    He’s such a good resource.

  2. I like the new Control Center much better; with the old one I was almost never initially on the page I wanted. However I really wish they had implemented a 3D Touch that would let you select different Bluetooth and WiFi sources from their respective buttons.

  3. Will adding 3rd-party apps to Control Center come with app updates? I use my iPhone as a calculator quite often, but don’t like the stock calculator app (I prefer Calcbot). I’d love to replace that.
