Control Center on iPad Air M3 only opens on Lock screen
Control Center only opens on Lock screen. Brand new iPad Air M3 with updated iPadOS.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

Apple Support called me about a different issue and I mentioned this problem. Turned out that a default setting to use Control Center in other apps was turned off. The Support Advisor was surprised it was turned off on a brand new iPad.
Thanks for asking. It was weird that it only worked on the Lock Screen. I never saw this setting on my old iPad.
Are you swiping down from the top-right edge?
If so (as you should be), what happens when you try?
Ah, I understand. Thanks for clarifying for future readers.
Glad it’s resolved. Enjoy your Apple gear.
