    Apple addresses the issue with the WiFi selector in the control center in iOS 18.1.

    With the introduction of iOS 18, the Control Center brought changes that made it harder to rearrange icons, particularly impacting the process of switching WiFi networks by requiring additional clicks. This may appear minor, but for those who frequently switch WiFi networks for various devices like routers and cameras, the added step becomes increasingly frustrating.

    I created an Instagram video detailing the changes that had occurred and how they had greatly bothered me. iPhone enthusiasts quickly criticized me, believing that the issue I encountered was minor and easily resolved by creating a Shortcut using the iOS Shortcut app.

    It appears that this issue was resolved with iOS 18.1, and the update includes various enhancements such as individual icons that can be personalized. The icons available for customization are shown in the left image, while the right image displays the icons currently in use.

    Initially, an idea proposed by the community as nonsensical was eventually adopted by Apple, revealing its lack of quality.

    I admit that the new Control Center was not as helpful and user-friendly as expected, requiring customization to be useful, unlike Apple’s usual approach of creating efficient interfaces and functions.
