The control centre doesn’t reveal too much but does display things like the music you’re listening to – and any other options you may have added to it as well.

Not only that, it allows people to mess about, taking photos with your camera or switching things off like Bluetooth.

But an easy switch means no-one can access the control centre while it’s locked.

All you need to do is go to Settings and find Face ID & Passcode.

Enter your passcode to proceed.

Scroll down until you find the list titled ‘Allow access when locked’.

And switch Control Centre off.

If you want to be even more private, you can switch others off like the Notification Centre.

Users are also trying a new feature that keeps your internet activity private.

It works like a VPN service to stop companies, such as Facebook or certain retail websites, from tracking you online.

Settings are easy to change
