What if there were a toggle for your mic or camera that had this same design? Would a user reasonably expect that those would still be accessible?
iOS is really weird for some things. User hostile for sure.
Like why won’t iOS let me lock phone in landscape mode??!
Or why does the alarm music always start on full volume?? Why can’t it play voice notes in order instead of just one at a time? Why can’t I change the font for the clock on Lock Screen other than those silly limited options?
- boesboes 3y agoNot to discount your valid complaints, but I'll take that over the preinstalled, non-removable fortnite installer that I got on my experia ;-)

- leokennis 3y agoThis is the opposite of user hostile. The average iOS user is my mom. She’d get completely confused if she turned off Bluetooth and the phone would actually do that - she’d call me the next day to ask why she could no longer AirDrop a photo to my dad or why the kitchen speaker stopped working. Also note that when you press this button in control center, it displays a small banner to the effect off “all Bluetooth devices disconnected until tomorrow”.
- whycome 3y agoDoes your mom know what Bluetooth devices are? Maybe the better icon would be something that just refers to “connected devices” rather than a protocol. And in doing so it even makes a bit more sense for things like AirDrop that may use a modified version of the protocol or a mix of Bluetooth and wifi (I think it negotiates via bt and transfers via wifi?).
