iOS 18.1 update - Control Center - turn Mobile Data on/off only when phone unlocked

I use an iPhone12 mini, after updating to iOS18.1 in the Control Center i can only switch the mobile data on and off when the phone is unlocked.

When the phone is locked and I try to turn mobile data on or off, it requests me to unlock my device first.

This did NOT happen with iOS 18.


Is there a solution / does anyone else have the same problem ?

Hi, your idea is nice - but it totally disables the control center in lockscreen.

This is not my goal :)
