It's as simple as that. This new reset feature is particularly handy if you've accidentally removed essential controls or created a layout that's difficult to navigate. Instead of painstakingly rearranging each element, you can quickly return to Apple's carefully designed default setup. If you're not on the beta, expect iOS 18.1 to roll out to the public this October.
