That's all really cool, but if I have to scroll down two or three (or four) pages for an app, it's no longer quick access, and I may as well keep them on a home screen. I love that control center is now expandable and highly organizable, but more than a page seems too much.
While I somewhat agree, just know that when you drag from the right corner, by dragging further down, you can get straight to any page. You don’t have to scroll, and it’s pretty quick
Just thought I’d let you all know. The ‘Open App’ under shortcut doesn’t open the shortcuts app, it allows you to select an app in your phone to open up rather than having to make a shortcut for it. Super nice
go into shortcuts and create new shortcut then change the icon of this shortcut to the wifi logo then add an action and change ‘turn wifi’ into ‘toggle wifi’ then add the shorcut into the conrol center
Is there a way to add a shortcut to the control center to open screen time from settings? I adjust my kids screen time often and it would be super useful to have that!
Thank you ! I think control center is good for actions you can do on top of other apps like the waterlama or dark noise widget but opening apps makes it lose its meaning. Just put the app on the homescreen, it’s way easier to access !
Great video! Do you use and recommend an app to keep track of house and car things like service, insurance... monthly and yearly reccuring things? Thanks.
There's a dedicated "connectivity" page in Control Center that has the individual Wifi and cellular controls, but there aren't actions you can place manually.
I know you’ve probably answered this question before but how do you even find out which apps have control center widgets / controls. For example I have lots of Govee devices but use HomeKit for most of my home controls so would love to be able to see HomeKit and Govee automation under my home controls.
I have a Shortcuts question. I’ve noticed that I can no longer use Find My in the shortcuts, so you know why? Also since we are on this topic TH-cam Music is also missing. I would really appreciated if you can help me. Thanks
I feel like any control center button that opens an app is just a glorified app icon. I want everything I do in control center to stay there. otherwise I may as well put a shortcut on the home screen
Home assistant is so much more powerful now that you can add command center buttons don’t need home kit to control smart lights in command center anymore
I do like the current app library setup as it categorizes all the apps for me instead of having to do it myself, but ya I can see there are some people who want some customization of it
Honestly if they would just stop having the icons move by themselves at all would fix a lot of the issues I have if I move one thing everything gets thrown out of wack
It's awful... completely unnecessary and poorly designed. Gave me a million button and extras screen, when I already had all I needed with fewer buttons and fewer screens.
@@CodedEnough Not exactly. You can remove some stuff, and then the screen gets only half used with a bunch of small buttons. Also, I can't split the "connection" stuff, like the "Hotspot" option is not removable, and I NEVER use it. If I remove it, the Wifi button (which I use all the time) goes away too. Plus some other smaller terrible visual states. Really bad change, I just want it as it was, it was perfect.
I have to seriously question the mental wellbeing of anyone tracking their water consumption. It’s called being thirsty. That’s how you know when you need water. Not an NGO saying “you need 8 glasses a day” or some nonsense. Very very neurotic behaviour.
Yeah man, absolutely agree, this is getting ridiculous, app for drinking water, app for literally breathing, i mean why would i need this kind of apps, if i wanna drink water, i go drink water, why would i wanna know how much i drink water, what am i gonna do with that information?
This is absolutely not true. It takes a long time for water to actually hydrate you. If you only drink when you're thirsty, you can go hours without being properly hydrated. I'm a professional singer and hydration for me is a massive factor on how I do my job. Reminders a couple of times a day to keep hydrated can be useful.
😂😂😂 Well i would normally agree, plenty of apps for ridiculous purposes, but not this time. Ever heard about the hormones ghrelin and leptin that are responsible for the signals of hunger and satiety ? Well the feeling of thirst is also activated by the release of the peptide hormone angiotensin II. Some ppl with some conditions and illnesses cant feel thirst due hormones shinanigans and they do whatever they can to remind themselves to drink, from creating habits to track water intake to keeping bottles everywhere like car, backpack, work desk so they see it all the time and not forget to drink for many hours. Now im not one of them, but its possible and there are ppl who experience actual life threatening dehydration and still cant feel thirst. Last, but not least… the signal of thirst is triggered when ur body experience mild dehydration. Im not saying healthy ppl should track water intake either, but you should never wait to feel thirst in a first place.

I hope they will soon allow the option to filter control centre pages based on the Focus applied
If i'm not wrong you can just delete everything in one page (including the preset ones) and it disappears so you have just one page
Just thought I’d let you all know. The ‘Open App’ under shortcut doesn’t open the shortcuts app, it allows you to select an app in your phone to open up rather than having to make a shortcut for it. Super nice
How did you get Wi-Fi icon separately in control center
you have to download 18.1 beta 4
ya unable to find
Same here trying to look for it without being in that stupid folder
go into shortcuts and create new shortcut then change the icon of this shortcut to the wifi logo then add an action and change ‘turn wifi’ into ‘toggle wifi’ then add the shorcut into the conrol center
Where I can make the Fck shortcut?
how do I find the shareshot option?
Is there a way to add a shortcut to the control center to open screen time from settings? I adjust my kids screen time often and it would be super useful to have that!
Where is the traslator widget?? I didn’t find it
Thank you ! I think control center is good for actions you can do on top of other apps like the waterlama or dark noise widget but opening apps makes it lose its meaning. Just put the app on the homescreen, it’s way easier to access !

Interesting!!
What is the cabinet evening Control Center App?
That’s a HomeKit scene!
When setting up the widgets, I can only do a circle or four across. It won’t let me do two across. Anyone have any ideas why this might be happening?
Is there a widget in the control center that hosts mobile data and networks such as other wifi individually?
There's a dedicated "connectivity" page in Control Center that has the individual Wifi and cellular controls, but there aren't actions you can place manually.
It seems though that iOS 18 beta 4 will add dedicated WiFi toggles :)
@@swordsweep hahah i saw 2 minutes ago thanks man
Did you do a video on the I need a nude palette?
what’s the app name for your shareshot app?
I need help with the background of my control panel every one else’s is a transparent background but mine is just not
Someone help me please
Hi can I ask is there upgrade to apple CarPlay I have iPhone 15 max I did update my phone to the 18 software
I know you’ve probably answered this question before but how do you even find out which apps have control center widgets / controls. For example I have lots of Govee devices but use HomeKit for most of my home controls so would love to be able to see HomeKit and Govee automation under my home controls.
Often it’s trial and error, or searching for videos and articles like this that list many of them!
DUDE YOU SAVED ME! I was going insane feeling like all of the layouts I was creating were terrible lol
Haha glad this helped!
I LOVED the new control center. In my opinion it is close to perfect. The customization is superb
It's pretty great, especially with Shortcuts!
I have a Shortcuts question. I’ve noticed that I can no longer use Find My in the shortcuts, so you know why? Also since we are on this topic TH-cam Music is also missing. I would really appreciated if you can help me. Thanks
Find My has been buggy since iOS 18 and unfortunately YT Music doesn’t offer any Shortcuts actions.
Hi I cannot see that SHARE SHOT in control center. Please do let me know how could i get it. Thank you
Did you open the app at least once?
I have Carrot but I don’t have the option to add anything to control center. Is this device specific?
You just need to be on the latest version of the App and iOS 18. Go to the app's page in the App Store as automatic updates don't refresh sometimes.
What is the control with the alarm bell next to his lock function ? I don’t see it on my phone.
That’s silent mode! If you have an iPhone 15 or older without an Action Button you won’t see it there.
@@beardfm thank you !!
liking that case, where is it from?😜
Wallpaper link? Thanks for the video
Im also interested!
It’s listed in the description, look out for wallpaper

I cannot add any third party apps to control center in iOS 18. Suggestions?
Please do a video on set by set of how to set up the Control Center as I have never used it before iso18?
What more would you like to know? Customizing is just what I've shown here, although I'm still tweaking mine to see what I like.
can you make a shortcut/widget/... for rewinding 10 seconds of the current songs playing via Spotify and also one for skipping 10 seconds ahead?
You can do that with a single Shortcut action, "Seek" media action and then customize the seconds!
@@beardfm thanks lots! Just got my iPhone 16 pro max and created those shortcuts and they’re awesome!
Can you make video about ios shortcut automation for tesla?
That would be awesome 👏
I feel like any control center button that opens an app is just a glorified app icon. I want everything I do in control center to stay there. otherwise I may as well put a shortcut on the home screen
What case do you have on your phone? Thanks for the video

Enjoy!
Not the default camera app crashing at 6:01 😂😭 awesome video thanks!
Haha it's that beta life
How do I add the neon glow the goes around the Home Screen the colored live wallpaper on look cool how do I add to my 14 pm
on second 0:33 how do you put the conectivity like that, because i try to expand the wi-fi or cellular data and they dont expand like yours
That's on the dedicated connectivity page for Control Center. Not sure you can make that with a standalone control.
@@beardfm yeah but how do you do it on the conectivity page because i cant do it
That’s the updated appearance for the Connectivity page in iOS 18.1 beta 4
@@glootfrootswoot ah ok. I have the official version 18.0. Thanks
@@Alfredo_LauretaYou drag it to a blank control center page and expand it to the biggest box
what case are you using?
Another great / informative post! Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’m going to wait a really long time to update to iOS 18 cause it doesn’t quite feel as polished as the other OS’s over the years.
iOS 18 is a huge improvement over 17, and so much more of a nice jump than 17 was from 16.
@@EvilSammy I want to upgrade the phone and iPad. But I’m a wait and see for a little bit while they work on it some more. 18 is big, I agree.
App Library should also be customisable like the control center. I hate that I cannot control which apps show up within a category which ones don’t.
I do like the current app library setup as it categorizes all the apps for me instead of having to do it myself, but ya I can see there are some people who want some customization of it
Another phenomenal video. Launching a specific playlist, tap to cash, I know I’m gonna spend hours customizing this. Thanks Stephen as always.
Glad it was helpful! And thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Thanks for sharing. Blessings
Great stuff always something special
Appreciate it!
I have made a page with shortcuts on page 2 :)
very nice presentation also informative. thanks
You're welcome!
Los videos son geniales y aprendo mucho con ellos, ahora sólo falta que hagas un canal en español. Jajajaj

who can not think to dedicate WiFi seperately!
you sound exactly like nmplol the streamer lol its actually crazy
Mine keeps disappearing
Control center customization is so clunky and unrefined
That’s why you customize it to your liking
@@Tyler_ThaTruth read my comment again, but slower this time.
The mechanism to customize is rough for sure.
Honestly if they would just stop having the icons move by themselves at all would fix a lot of the issues I have if I move one thing everything gets thrown out of wack
As much as I like the customisation, I completely agree
Translation doesn’t happen in the dynamic island for me. It opens the app. 🤷🏾♂️
We're, I'm on the iOS 18.1 dev beta so it may be coming.
I don't even see it as an control to add! Guess I'll wait for the update.
Control center customization is Hell 😬😤
It's a bit wonky to add pages and delete pages (have to remove all actions on a page for it to disappear).
I love Steve jobs I love apple 🍎 thing different 🇮🇳🍎🙏
Idk man the new control center is extremely clunky and glitches everytime u pull it down on my ip 12
I'm on 18.1 and it's def glitchy there, but wasn't sure how much of that was beta.
How does this man NOT have 1M+ subs?
Appreciate that! Working to get there 🙂
It's awful... completely unnecessary and poorly designed. Gave me a million button and extras screen, when I already had all I needed with fewer buttons and fewer screens.
You can remove the buttons and screens
@@CodedEnough Not exactly. You can remove some stuff, and then the screen gets only half used with a bunch of small buttons. Also, I can't split the "connection" stuff, like the "Hotspot" option is not removable, and I NEVER use it. If I remove it, the Wifi button (which I use all the time) goes away too.
