Hi,

a good tip this as are the others also.

I just did a test and it's important I think too to bear in mind that when you do the three-finger swipe-up for the control centre and you wish to check out notifications you wil need to focus first again on the status bar and then three-finger swipe down.

I find all these apparently simple little tips make the use of the iPhone such a breeze.

Thanks folk,

Tony

To be more specific, place focus on an item on the topline status bar such as time, cellular, WiFi, or battery level and do a 3 finger swipe up. I find this method much easier for accessing the control center versus the single finger slide down from the top of the screen.

Touch the top of the screen. Then, do a three finger swipe up from the bottom of the screen. That should do it.

You don't need to use the right hand side, you can do it anywhere. Make sure you're starting at the very top. I usually put my finger on the top of the phone and then slowly slide down the face of the phone.

*Subject:* Reliable way of accessing the Control Center
My iPhone is a 14+ running IOS 18.6.2. I checked under settings to find out how to access the control center. I need to use the scan barcode feature. Swiping down from right edge does not work for me at all. I just run into apps on my home screen.
I welcome any suggestions.
Thank you.
