How do you access the Control Center on an iPhone?

The correct way to access the Control Center on an iPhone, particularly for models that do not have a home button, is by swiping down from the top-right corner of the screen. This allows users to quickly access essential controls such as Wi-Fi settings, Bluetooth, brightness, and volume adjustments without navigating through the full settings menu.

While swiping up from the bottom of the screen was the method used on earlier iPhone models with a home button, newer models have transitioned to the top-right corner for this function. Pressing the home button does not bring up the Control Center; instead, it returns the user to the home screen. Tapping the settings icon takes you to the settings menu, but it does not open the Control Center, which is designed for quick access to frequently used settings on the fly. Therefore, swiping down from the top-right corner is the necessary gesture for modern iPhones to access the Control Center efficiently.
