# Widgets and Control Center controls

Cami has a Home Screen widget, three Lock Screen widgets and two controls. Touch and hold the Home Screen or Lock Screen, add a widget, and pick Cami.

Each widget and control shows or logs for one child, which you choose.

| ------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------- |
| **Sleep**    | Starts and ends a sleep timer without opening Cami.                     | **Child**           |
| **Log Care** | Opens Cami at a bottle, nursing, diaper or pumping form for your child. | **Child**, **Care** |

1. Open Control Center and touch and hold an empty spot.
2. Tap **Add a Control**, search for Cami and pick the control.
