Control Center customization first arrived with iOS 11 and has improved since then. Follow along for how to customize Control Center on iPhone and iPad.
Control Center has become more and more useful over the years with more options you can quickly access by pulling down from the top right corner of your iPhone or iPad screen.
With iOS 14, Control Center customizations include options for the Apple TV remote, Screen Recording, Notes, Voice Memos, Do Not Disturb While Driving, Sleep Mode, Dark Mode, and much more. While the Tetris-esque design may not be for everyone, the improved functionality is handy.
