What's New in the iOS 18 Control Center

[@mpodesta]

Dear Ellen, thank you very much for for videos about mastering the IPhone. I also really appreciate how well you speak and pronounce words in English, being a foreigner viewer it’s a blessing and quite a treat for my ears!

Hi Ellen, Thank you for explaining the control center and the options for access. I have not upgraded yet, but will apply your info when I do. Thank you for aways keeping us up to date on new changes. Love and Kindness, Teresa

You are so welcome Teresa! iOS 18 is a great update when you’re ready.

the iOS 18 update is the best of our era by far. Apple really outdid themselves and the new features/layout are so much fun to play around with. Great job showing the updated control center. Very customizable!

Great video as always, Ellen. One of the things i wish Apple would address is the alarm functionality. I would like to not have the alarm go off on certain holidays that i don’t work and there is no way to do that automatically. I had a free android app 14 years ago that had that option but for some reason Apple thinks nobody needs that. Also, skipping the next alarm should be a one or two step process. Instead it’s 8 steps from start to finish. That free android app 14 years ago also has that feature, it was called alarm clock plus.

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

Yes the Alarms are basic. I wonder if there’s a third party app that would do what you need. Thanks for watching.

Can’t remember. Probably not,but other Apple health idata is there. Can I start over? How?

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

Where and how were you adding the health data? Were you using a specific app that was synced to the health app? Try opening the health app and see if that’s where you added your data. Sorry it’s tough when I’m unsure of how you were adding information.

[@Teresa-K]

Hi Ellen! I’ve been watching other videos of problems with IOS 18. Is it possible to skip IOS 18 and wait for next upgrade fixing problems? Thanks, Teresa

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

Hi Teresa, I believe at some point you’ll be forced to update. I’ve been on iOS 18 since the later beta period and yes there were some issues. Since they released it to the public I haven’t had any problems. You could wait until you’re forced to update but you are missing some cool new features. What problems have you heard about? Thanks so much for the question!

@@EllensTipsForiOS Thanks Ellen for your reply. I follow Brandon Butch too. Check out his latest video iOS 18 This Is Crazy.

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

Thanks Teresa I will.

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

I just did a quick run through of Brandon’s video and he states as of iOS 18.0.1 the bugs and crashes have been fixed and it’s safe to update. The crashes that are happening now are only in the beta software which I wouldn’t recommend to anyone unless like me you need it to see what’s coming. I’m running iOS 18.0.1 on all my devices and they are working fine. Hope that helps.

@@EllensTipsForiOS Thanks Ellen for the info. You’re the best!

[@howardgotell9010]

I updated to IOS 18 and IPad. In Apple health I lost nutrition data. How di I retrieve it? Everything else is ok.

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

Did you back it up to iCloud?

[@howardgotell9010]

Thanks

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

Sorry I couldn’t help more.

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

You need to start there and get it connected to your health app and hopefully the data will transfer. Reach out to them for more help.
