YOUR iPhone has loads of hidden buttons – you just need to know where to look.
Once you find them, you can instantly upgrade your Apple device.

It’s all to do with your Control Center.
To find the Control Center, swipe down from the top-right corner of the screen (or up from the bottom on old models).
You’ll find loads of quick-access buttons to control various parts of your iPhone.
But a little-known iPhone hack allows you to customize the Control Center and add many more buttons to the menu.
This can give you a significantly more powerful Control Center packed with features.
First, you’ll want to go Settings > Control Center.
Then simply tap the plus (+) icon next to the app or feature that you want to add to the Control Center.
The options include Alarm, Dark Mode, Low Power Mode, Stopwatch, and Shazam Music Recognition.

It’s possible to re-arrange your list by grabbing the hamburger icon (three stacked lines) next to an item and dragging it up or down.
This will re-order the icons in your Control Center.
Once you’ve used all the options, try to place your favorite ones higher in the list.
And delete any that you find yourself never using.
You can remove a control by going back into these settings and tapping the minus button next to items under Included Controls.
