However, there are some features that are not used by most people and one of those is the Home Accessories panel in the Control Center.

Here’s how you can remove it from the Control Center.

Remove Home Accessories from Control Center

When you drag the Control Center on your iPhone running iOS 14, it shows a Home Accessories section that is intended to offer you a quick way to control your home devices. However, I don’t use any devices that are compatible with HomeKit so I have no use for it, yet.

If you’re in the same boat and want to remove it,open the Settings appon your iPhone.Find the Control CenterSettings and tap to reveal the options.
