If you’re OK with your Background Sounds settings, then you can just toggle them on and off through Control Center, the swipe-down screen with the quick access icons on your home screen.
First, make sure that you’ve enabled the Hearing Control in the list, by heading into Settings and then Control Center. From here, press the green + icon to add it to your mix (if it’s not there already).
Now you can swipe down (from the top right-hand side of screen) and access Hearing. Tap this and you’ll see the option to turn on Background Sounds and choose which to hear.
