Change WiFi Networks From Control Center on iPhone and iPad

Comments

One handy feature added to iOS 13 is the ability to Switch WiFi networks (and Bluetooth devices) directly from the Control Center, on iPhone or iPad. In previous versions of iOS, users could always enable/disable both WiFi and Bluetooth via the Control Center. Now, however, you're able to connect to a network (saved networks) or Bluetooth device (saved devices) without having to open the Settings app. This is an excellent feature for when you're switching up networks and Bluetooth devices on-the-fly.

In the following Visi guide, we're going to cover using the control center to switch between WiFi networks and Bluetooth devices/connections. For this article, we used an iPhone 7 running iOS 13.3.
