Control Center widgets can be added and removed in “Settings -> Control Center -> Customize Controls.” The order of the widgets can be changed by dragging and reordering items in the list.

1. Additional Tips

Timer: normally, this provides a shortcut to the Timer pane in the Clock app. But if you force-touch the widget, you’ll have a slick option to set a timer directly from Control Center.Calculator: force-touch to copy the last calculation’s result.Camera: force-touch to get four shortcut options to access the front camera, video recording, portrait mode, or the QR code camera mode.

2. Scan QR Codes
QR codes might be largely forgotten by everyone but marketers, but that doesn’t mean they’re never worth examining. The QR code widget opens the QR Code Camera and scans any visible QR codes. Once scanned, a notification with the QR code’s contents will appear at the top of the screen. If the QR code contains a text string, the notification provides a shortcut to Safari to search for the term. If the QR code contains contact information, the notification will provide an option to create a new contact with that information. URL QR codes will provide a notification linking to the referenced site, and messaging QR codes can create an email or text message, as appropriate. If you don’t tap the notification, nothing will happen.

3. Apple TV Remote
Control your Apple TV with your iPhone. This widget searches for and connects to Apple TVs on the same Wi-Fi network. This remote might even be more useful than the Siri Remote. It provides the same features but with a better touch interface for the user. There’s a full slide-up keyboard available for text entry, and you can use voice search just like you would in any other app.

4. Flashlight

This turns on the flash connected to your iPhone’s camera. Force-press the Control Center widget, and you’ll have an option to set the power level of the flashlight to one of four levels. The flashlight will stay on until turned off. Tap the widget again to turn off the flashlight.

5. Screen Recording

Taping this widget will start the countdown to produce a screen recording. While your iPhone’s screen is being recorded, a red banner will display at the top of the screen. To end the recording, tap the screen recording widget (which is now red) once more or tap the red banner at the top of the screen and then tap “Stop” on the pop-up alert. Force-touch the Screen Recording icon, and you can choose the screen recording’s source and toggle the microphone availability.
