Accounting on the Go Series-53: Swift Transactions at Your Fingertips-Zoho Books in Your Control Center

Hello again,

We’ve all had those moments where you need to get something done quickly, but the process of unlocking your phone, finding the app, and navigating through menus slows you down. Now, with Zoho Books integrated into the iOS 18 Control Center, you can bypass all those steps and instantly create transactions with just a tap.

Picture this: you're in the middle of your work, and you need to quickly create an invoice or record an expense. Instead of switching screens or interrupting your flow, you can add the Zoho Books widget to your Control Center and handle it right from there.
With this feature, you can easily:
  • Swipe down from the top-right corner of your iPhone or iPad to access the Control Center.
  • Tap on the Zoho Books widget and instantly create invoices, estimates, expenses, or timesheets—no need even to open the app.
What makes this even more powerful is the ability to tailor the widget to your most-used actions. Prioritize the controls that matter most, whether it’s creating a new transaction or capturing important details on the go.

Supported OS: iOS 18, iPadOS 18

Here’s how it works

  • Open the Control Center settings on your iOS 18 device.
  • Add the Zoho Books widget to the Control Center for quick access.
  • Configure the widget with your frequently used actions.
  • Swipe down to access the widget, and you're ready to create transactions instantly—right from the lock screen!
