InteractionSwitch ControlSwitch Control overviewIf you have a motor impairment, Switch Control lets you control iPad using one or moreconnected physical switches. Use any of several methods to perform actions such asselecting, tapping, dragging, typing, invoking multitasking options on devices thatsupport them, and even free-hand drawing. You use a switch to select an item or locationon the screen, and then use the same (or different) switch to choose an action to performon that item or location. Three basic methods are:Item scanning (default), which highlights different items on the screen until you selectone.Point scanning, which lets you use scanning crosshairs to pick a screen location.Manual selection, which lets you move from item to item on demand (requiresmultiple switches).Whichever method you use, when you select an individual item (rather than a group), amenu appears so you can choose how to act on the selected item (tap, drag, or pinch, forexample).If you use multiple switches, you can set up each switch to perform a specific action andcustomize your item selection method. For example, instead of automatically scanningscreen items, you can set up switches to move to the next or previous item on demand.You can adjust the behavior of Switch Control in a variety of ways, to suit your specificneeds and style.Add a switch and turn on Switch ControlYou can use the following as a switch:An external adaptive switch: Choose a Bluetooth switch or a Made For iPhone switchthat plugs into the lightning port.The iPad screen: Tap the screen to trigger the switch.The iPad front-facing camera: Use head movements while facing the camera totrigger the switch.
Add a switch and choose its action. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > SwitchControl > Switches. If you use only one switch, it is your Select Item switch by default.If youʼre adding an external switch, you need to connect it to iPad before it will appear inthe list of available switches. Follow the instructions that came with the switch. If itconnects using Bluetooth, you need to pair it with iPad—turn on the switch, go toSettings > Bluetooth, tap the switch, then follow the onscreen instructions. For moreinformation, see .If you connect a Made For iPhone (MFi) switch, Switch Control sets a Select Item switchand enables it automatically.Turn on Switch Control. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Switch Control. Or,.Scan the keyboard. VoiceOver scans the onscreen keyboard row by row, including thesuggestions above the keyboard. To control how the keyboard is navigated, go toSettings > General > Accessibility > Switch Control, then turn the settings belowKeyboard on or off.Turn off Switch Control. Use any scanning method to select and tap Settings >General > Accessibility > Switch Control, then turn off Switch Control. Or, .Basic techniquesWhether you use item scanning or point scanning, the Switch Control basics are thesame.Select an item. Trigger your Select Item switch when the item is highlighted (itemscanning) or under the crosshairs (point scanning).Perform an action on the selected item. Choose a command from the control menuthat appears when you select the item. The layout of the menu depends on how youconfigure tap behavior. (To choose an option, go to Settings > General > Accessibility >Switch Control > Tap Behavior.)With Default on: The control menu usually includes only the Tap button and the Morebutton (two dots at the bottom). If youʼre in a scrollable area of the screen, a Scrollbutton also appears. To tap the highlighted item, trigger your Select Item button whenTap is highlighted. To see additional action buttons, choose More at the bottom of themenu. If you have multiple switches, you can set one up specifically for tapping.With Auto Tap on: To tap the item, do nothing—the item is automatically tapped whenthe Auto Tap interval expires (0.75 seconds if you havenʼt changed it). To see thecontrol menu, trigger your Select Item button before the Auto Tap interval expires.The control menu skips the Tap button and goes right to the full set of action buttons.Connect Bluetooth devicesuse accessibility shortcutsuseaccessibility shortcuts
With Always Tap on: Tap to select the highlighted item rather than display the controlmenu. Wait until the end of the scan cycle, then tap a button to display the controlmenu.Note: Always Tap applies only when you choose item scanning. When point scanning,the default behavior applies.Work with recipes. A recipe lets you temporarily assign a special action to a switch. Forexample, you can choose a recipe to turn pages in iBooks or control a game. To create,edit, or launch a recipe, go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Switch Control >Recipes.Dismiss the Scanner menu without choosing an action. Tap while the original item ishighlighted and all the icons in the control menu are dimmed. The menu goes away aftercycling the number of times you specify in Settings > General > Accessibility > SwitchControl > Loops.Perform screen gestures. Choose Gestures from the Scanner menu.Scroll the screen. Select an item in a scrollable part of the screen, then:With Auto Tap off: Choose the Scroll Down button (next to the Tap button) in theScanner menu. Or, for additional scrolling options, choose More, then choose Scroll.With Auto Tap on: Choose Scroll from the control menu. If many actions are available,you might have to choose More first.Tap the Home button. Choose Home from the Scanner menu.Perform other hardware actions. Select any item, then choose Device from the menuthat appears.

Choose Media Controls from the Scanner menu to play, pause,or go backward or forward.Use Switch Control on another iOS device. Ensure that you sign in to iCloud with thesame Apple ID on the other iOS device, then choose the other device from the menu.Item scanningItem scanning alternately highlights each item or group of items on the entire screen untilyou trigger your Select Item switch. If there are many items, Switch Control highlightsthem in groups. When you select a group, highlighting continues with the items in thegroup. When you select a unique item, scanning stops and the control menu appears.Item scanning is the default when you first turn on Switch Control.You can choose from three scanning styles—auto scanning, manual scanning, andsingle-switch step scanning. Auto scanning automatically highlights items, one after theother. With manual scanning, you use one switch to highlight an item and another toactivate it. Single-switch step scanning uses a switch to move the highlight from item toitem. If you take no action after a period of time, the highlighted item activates.Select an item or enter a group. Watch (or listen) as items are highlighted. When theitem you want to control (or the group containing the item) is highlighted, trigger yourSelect Item switch. Work your way down the hierarchy of items until you select theindividual item you want to control.Back out of a group. Trigger your Select Item switch when the dashed highlight aroundthe group or item appears.Dismiss the control menu without performing an action.

Tap the menu button, tap Custom,then tap an empty gesture placeholder. Or go to Settings > General > Accessibility >AssistiveTouch > Create New Gesture.Example 1: To create the rotation gesture, go to Settings > General > Accessibility >AssistiveTouch > Create New Gesture. On the gesture recording screen that asks you totouch to create a gesture, rotate two fingers on the iPad screen around a point betweenthem. (You can do this with a single finger or stylus—just create each arc separately, oneafter the other.) If it doesnʼt turn out quite right, tap Cancel, then try again. When it looksright, tap Save, then give the gesture a name—maybe “Rotate 90.” Then, to rotate theview in Maps, for example, open Maps, tap the AssistiveTouch menu button, and chooseRotate 90 from Custom. When the blue circles representing the starting finger positionsappear, drag them to the point around which you want to rotate the map, then release.You might want to create several gestures with different degrees of rotation.Example 2: Letʼs create the touch-and-hold gesture that you use to start rearrangingicons on your Home screen. This time, on the gesture recording screen, touch and holdyour finger in one spot until the recording progress bar reaches halfway, then lift yourfinger. Be careful not to move your finger while recording, or the gesture will be recordedas a drag. Tap Save, then name the gesture. To use the gesture, tap the AssistiveTouchmenu button, then choose your gesture from Custom. When the blue circle representingyour touch appears, drag it over a Home screen icon and release.
If you record a sequence of taps or drags, theyʼre all played back at the same time. Forexample, using one finger or a stylus to record four separate, sequential taps at fourlocations on the screen creates a simultaneous four-finger tap.Exit a menu without performing a gesture. Tap anywhere outside the menu. To returnto the previous menu, tap the arrow in the middle of the menu.Assign custom actions to the menu button. By default, a single tap on the menu buttonopens the menu. To assign other actions to the menu button, go to Settings > General >Accessibility > AssistiveTouch.

Go to Settings > General >Accessibility > AssistiveTouch > Idle Opacity, then drag the slider.Move the menu button. Drag it anywhere along the edge of the screen.Touch AccommodationsIf you have trouble using the touchscreen or Home button, use Touch Accommodationsto change how your device responds to your touch.Choose how long you must touch the screen before a touch is recognized. You canconfigure iPad to respond only to touches of a certain duration. Go to Settings >General > Accessibility > Touch Accommodations, turn on Hold Duration, then use theGesture Delay plus and minus buttons to choose a duration (the default is 0.10 seconds).Choose the duration in which multiple touches are treated as a single touch. If youhave trouble touching the screen just once, turn on Ignore Repeat. Then, if you touch thescreen several times quickly, iPad treats the touches as one. To change the amount oftime between touches before iPad treats them as one, go to Settings > General >Accessibility > Touch Accommodations, turn on Ignore Repeat, then use the GestureDelay plus and minus buttons to adjust the timing.Choose the location where iPad responds to the first or the last place you touch. Goto Settings > General > Accessibility > Touch Accommodations, then choose a TapAssistance option (Use Initial Touch Location or Use Final Touch Location).When you choose Use Initial Touch Location, iPad uses the location of your first tap—when you tap an app on the Home screen, for example. Choose Use Final TouchLocation, and iPad registers the tap where you lift your finger. iPad responds to a tapwhen you lift your finger within a certain period of time. Use the Gesture Delay plus andminus buttons to adjust the timing. Your device can respond to other gestures, such asdrags, if you wait longer than the gesture delay.
Choose how iPad responds when you press and hold the Home button. Go toSettings > General > Accessibility > Home Button, then choose Siri or Off.Use accessibility features with SiriSiri is often the easiest way to start using accessibility features with iPad.
