AssistiveTouch

AssistiveTouch helps you use iPad if you have difficulty touching the screen or pressing the 

buttons. You can use AssistiveTouch without any accessory to perform gestures that are difficult 

for you. You also can use a compatible adaptive accessory (such as a joystick) together with 

AssistiveTouch to control iPad.
The AssistiveTouch menu lets you perform actions such as these by just tapping (or the 

equivalent on your accessory):

 

•

Press the Home button

 

•

Summon Siri

 

•

Perform multi-finger gestures

 

•

Access Control Center or Notification Center

 

•

Adjust iPad volume

 

•

Shake iPad

 

•

Turn on AssistiveTouch. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch, or use the 

Accessibility Shortcut. See 

 on page 130. When AssistiveTouch is on, the 

floating menu button appears on the screen.
Show or hide the menu. Tap the floating menu button, or click the secondary button on 

your accessory.
Simulate pressing the Home button. Tap the menu button, then tap Home.
Lock or rotate the screen, adjust iPad volume, or simulate shaking iPad. Tap the menu button, 

then tap Device.
Perform a swipe or drag that uses 2, 3, 4, or 5 fingers. Tap the menu button, tap Device > 

More > Gestures, then tap the number of digits needed for the gesture. When the corresponding 

circles appear on the screen, swipe or drag in the direction required by the gesture. When you 

finish, tap the menu button.
Perform a pinch gesture. Tap the menu button, tap Favorites, then tap Pinch. When the pinch 

circles appear, touch anywhere on the screen to move the pinch circles, then drag the pinch 

circles in or out to perform a pinch gesture. When you finish, tap the menu button.
Create your own gesture. You can add your own favorite gestures to the control menu (for 

example, tap and hold or two-finger rotation). Tap the menu button, tap Favorites, 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 prompts you to 

touch to create a gesture, rotate two fingers on the iPad screen around a point between them. 

(You can do this with a single finger or stylus—just create each arc separately, one after the 

other.) If it doesn’t turn out quite right, tap Cancel, then try again. When it looks right, tap Save, 

then give the gesture a name—maybe “Rotate 90.” Then, to rotate the view in Maps, for example, 

open Maps, tap the AssistiveTouch menu button, and choose Rotate 90 from Favorites. When 

the blue circles representing the starting finger positions appear, 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.
