# Access Lifecycle Center

Lifecycle Center is enabled by default in your Salesforce org, so you don't have to turn it on. You can open it directly from the App Launcher. The first time you open it, accept the DX Tools terms and conditions.

Note Use only one product at a time: either Lifecycle Center or DevOps Center (Managed Package). To use Lifecycle Center, we recommend that you disable DevOps Center (Managed Package).

If you use DevOps Center (Managed Package), complete additional steps to associate your development environment with Lifecycle Center. See [Switch from DevOps Center (Managed Package) to Lifecycle Center](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.devops_center_managed_package_to_next_gen.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "If your team recently migrated from DevOps Center (Managed Package) to Lifecycle Center, remove your existing DX Inspector connection and reconnect to Lifecycle Center so that your commits go to the right project.").

1. From the App Launcher, find and select **Lifecycle Center (DevOps Center)**.
2. The first time you open Lifecycle Center, review and accept the DX Tools terms and conditions.
    
    This unified agreement also applies to other Salesforce DX tools including Agentforce Vibes IDE, Lifecycle Center, DX Inspector, and Scale Center.

If you don't want Lifecycle Center available in your org, a Lifecycle Center Admin can disable it. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Lifecycle Center, select **Lifecycle Center**, and then turn it off.
