I’m using iOS 18. On the phone the weirdest thing is what they went and
done with the control center. Before when I finger flicked from the top to
turn Bluetooth on to listen to an audiobook in my vehicle before leaving my
driveway it was more straightforward. Now I have to drill down a bit more
so it’s more complicated, but my connectable devices list is right there.
And it takes me to Bluetooth settings from that point to turn Bluetooth off
so I don’t have to back out and take a separate Settings path. So that
feature works for me.
