It is tricky if you have a case that is a little tall covering the Home button.

Hello.

I have the same problem with my griffin survivor case. It is easy to reach the notification center (from top to low). But I cant reach the control center (from the lower part to the top).

Can you take this things in count for the next update pleas.

I too have a Griffin case, and can only get about 1 in 20 swipes to work for Control Center.

Please, please give us some more screen real estate for the swipe in the next update!!!

Additonally, if you're in an app that includes scrolling up & down, bringing up the control center often results in losing your place on the page you were on.

The same problem, I have hard case protector and it us almost impossible to accsess control center.. So i really hope apple will fix this issue on the their next ios update..

It would be great if they'd re-implement music controls when you double click the home button. Especially because music controls are the things you need to access immediately (eg. someone starts talking to you while you're listening to music). The other things in control center are useful, but you're never in a position where you need to "immediately" turn off Bluetooth or get to the calculator :P

Yep... add one more to the list. I have NO case on my iPad 3 and control center is incredibly tough to respond. Like other reports, notifications pull down from the top with great ease, but control center is spotty (at best) to swiping up from the bottom of the screen. This holds true in ANY ORIENTATION.

I'd appreciate having the option of double clicking the home button for searching, too. I think in many areas of iOS 7 Apple over thought the simplicity and elegance of useability, making tried-and-true functionality obsolete.

Try swiping with the outside of edge of your pinky finger. It works for me as a temporary fix until apple hopefully adjusts it. By outside edge I mean the right side of my right pinky finger's nail.

Greetings,

I work in a boutique specialised in Apple products and I have seen this problem a few times. Until Apple fixes the issue permanently, try reseting the iPad by holding the home and top button for 10 seconds or so. It seems to give the screen some sensibility back.

I hate to say it, but the case is what's causing most of your trouble. On my Snugg case, if I pry down the bottom edge of it so I can access the black portion of the screen that is hidden behind it, swiping up if you start in the black area works every time. Hard cases won't let you do this. It still ***** though, because the lip on the case is starting to droop away from the screen.

Appears that someone fell asleep at the design wheel and forgot to leave the "up arrow" in a place that is visible as well accessible. Pretty hard to believe that something so basic yet so important slipped thru the cracks.

Let's see how quickly they fix it.

Thanks Xgent - it still doesn't come up as often as I'd like, but your tip helps.
