<DocusaurusDoc>
The **useControl** hook provides access to the control setting of a FreeSewing user.
Use this hook whether you have a UI element that should be hidden or shown
based on the control setting.
<Popout type="tip" title="useControl vs useAccount">
The **useControl** hook guarantees that a control value will always be available, even if no user
is authenticated. As such, it is recommended to use this rather than the
[useAccount](/reference/packages/react/hooks/useaccount/) hook when all you need is a control
value, and no access to the user account.
</Popout>
## Example
```js
import { useControl } from '@freesewing/react/hooks/useControl'
const MyComponent = () => {
control,
setControl,
} = useControl()
// ...
}
```
## Return value
Calling the hook returns an object with the following properties which are all methods:
- [control](#control)
- [setControl](#setControl)
### control
The control value.
### setControl
A method to set the new control value.
```js
function setControl (
Number control // The new control value to set
)
```
