How to fix the error of not opening Control Center on iPhone/iPad from Lock Screen

Control Center on iOS is a great feature that gives iPhone and iPad users quick access to adjust screen brightness, volume up and down, camera selection, Wi-fi and Bluetooth toggle, Do Not Disturb mode and more, thanks to the ability to customize it.
