control for increasing/decreasing a set value
Explanation:
Based on the context you gave,
It sounds like a control that allows you to increase/decrease a value that has been entered or a value in the system. Looks like it allows you to change a setting or a feature by increasing decreasing a value. It could also be used for changing default values to customize whatever setting is desired.
