Why doesn't iPhone 13 have focus in control center?

The instructions for using Focus on the support site are wrong. They direct the user to press/hold the "Focus" icon on the Control Center screen.


On my iPhone 13 16.1.1, there's no "Focus" listed in the Control Center screen.

Are you saying that you don’t see Focus under the lock icon when you swipe down from the upper right corner to open the Control Center? That setting is a default in the Control Center and cannot be removed.


if you do see it, a simple tap on the Moon icon will place your phone in DND a mode. Don’t tap and hold down on the Focus tab, just tap the moon icon.
