i updated a few weeks ago to ios11. i was hoping after the first update they would fix the issue of having to go into settings to turn on/off wifi and bluetooth, however they still have not and it's driving me nuts, why mess with this?

i read they reckon it makes it 'easier in everyday life', well thats total BS, because now there is 3 variable you need to control, the device your connecting too, control panel (whether its 'searching' or just 'on'), and whether its actually on/off in settings or not.

why make this process more complicated?! i had a samsung a few years ago and it was **** i hope i dont have to go back but this is just a joke to be honest. oh plus my iphone 7 is now slow as ****.

Don't think they will "fix" it as this seems to be an intended change in the way it works.

Not only that. Apple created a support page on it. It’s not going anywhere. I would prefer added functionality tho, like 3D Touch to turn off.
