Any mobile operating system is doomed to constant evolution or extinction and oblivion. iOS is used by millions of people. Not surprisingly, new features and functions are constantly emerging in this system.

Usually we go to “Settings” to change certain parameters according to our needs. But over time, there are so many functions that this application has frankly increased. And Apple’s attempts to optimize it do not help much – you have to scroll through long lists and find the required parameters in them. Is it convenient? Not really.
Fortunately, there is a solution that can make it easier to access the most used sections of the application. Settings… You can create a shortcut on the desktop, clicking on which will lead to the transition to the desired options.
For example, I often (to save battery power) turn off (and then turn on again) the switch Geolocation servicesthat is on the way Settings → Confidentiality → Geolocation services… Now, using the tool described below, I go to this one-touch settings menu. How it works?
