Apple users have been asking for customization of the control center found in Android and now they have it in the first release of iOS 11 beta. iOS 11’s new modular design allows selecting widgets and you can literally fill the whole screen with icons in the control center. Also, 3D touch adds even more functionality where you can expand access to any subcategory.
Here is the full list of optional Control Center additions
- • Accessibility Shortcuts
• Alarm
• Apple TV Remote
• Calculator
• Camera
• Do Not Disturb While Driving
• Flashlight
• Guided Access
• Low Power Mode
• Magnifier
• Notes
• Screen recording
• Stopwatch
• Text Size
• Timer
• Voice Memos
• Wallet
The CBT team has been testing the various features of iOS 11 beta and discovered that using an iPhone 6 or iPhone 7 to activate the Control Center with VoiceOver is not functional for now, but it works normally on an iPad Pro.
. While the betas contain new features, they also contain pre-release bugs that can prevent the normal use of your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Apple TV, or Mac, and are not intended for everyday use on a primary device. Also the features in the developer beta of iOS 11 won’t necessarily be in the final public launch of iOS 11.
That being said, here’s how to customize Control Center in iOS 11 beta.
