iOS 18.1 beta 6 adds two new connectivity toggles for Control Center

When iOS 18.1 arrives later this month, it’s set to offer expanded options for customizing Control Center. We’ve seen new controls added in previous betas, and today’s beta 6 continues that trend by offering two new connectivity toggles.

AirDrop and Satellite complete the connectivity lineup

Two weeks ago, Apple released iOS 18.1 beta 5 and brought with it new Control Center upgrades.

In addition to a fresh option to reset Control Center to the factory default, Apple also added new standalone connectivity toggles.

At the time, the only connectivity controls that couldn’t yet be added were AirDrop and Satellite.

But today’s beta 6 fixes that. Now, every type of connectivity control is available as a standalone toggle.

Here’s the full list of standalone connectivity options for Control Center in iOS 18.1:

• AirDrop
• Airplane Mode
• Bluetooth
• Cellular Data
• Personal Hotspot
• Satellite
• VPN
• Wi-Fi

These join the existing larger connectivity toggle featuring three large controls, and a fourth button that opens a secondary control panel.

Since Control Center toggles can also be linked to the iPhone’s Lock Screen now, or its Action Button, it’s great to see dedicated AirDrop and Satellite options provide more flexibility for not only building your own custom Control Center, but setting other iPhone controls too.
