I recently updated to iOS 11, I remember there is a night mode where the colors become warm on the phone as to not interrupt your circadian rhythm in iOS 10. Where did this feature go? Does it still exist? There is a moon icon in control center when you swipe up from the bottom, but the moon icon just enables do not disturb mode...

Thanks, I've never actually used the Night Shift mode outside of control center. I like how you can set schedules and such under settings. Still, I wish there was a way you could customize control center to put Night Shift back in there for manual enabling it.

Hold down / 3D Touch on the brightness setting in control center and a window will pop up that has the night shift mode toggle (and true tone if your device has it)

There are lots of hidden features in iOS 11 :)

Yeah. I just noticed that Night Shift isn't available in the Control Center customization area.

Oh, crap. I actually found that last night and forgot all about it! Thanks for the reminder.

It's still there in the control center. Just long-press/3D touch the brightness bar and you'll see the option:

Thank you all! I don't have 3D touch, I did touch the brightness bar a little bit, but nothing happened. Turns out I didn't hold it down long enough...

I just noticed you can also 3d touch the area with the toggles for wifi, bt etc and it brings up additional options for AirDrop and Hotspot. Wondering why they dont give us the option to move the hotspot to always show though instead of something like airplane mode that i never use.
