Use AssistiveTouch on iPhone
Sep
AssistiveTouch helps you use iPhone if you have difficulty touching the screen or pressing the buttons. You can use AssistiveTouch without any accessory to perform actions or gestures that are difficult for you. You can also use a compatible adaptive accessory (such as a joystick) together with AssistiveTouch to control iPhone.
With AssistiveTouch, you can use a simple tap (or the equivalent on your accessory) to perform actions such as the following:

Use AssistiveTouch
Tap the menu button, then choose an action or gesture.
For a multifinger gesture, do the following:

Create custom gestures
You can add your favorite gestures (such as touch and hold or two-finger rotation) to the AssistiveTouch menu. You can even create several gestures with different degrees of rotation.
-
Go to Settings
> Accessibility > Touch > AssistiveTouch > Create New Gesture. -
Perform your gesture on the recording screen. For example:
-
Touch-and-hold gesture: Touch and hold your finger in one spot until the recording progress bar reaches halfway, then lift your finger. Be careful not to move your finger while recording, or the gesture will be recorded as a drag.
-
Two-finger rotation gesture: Rotate two fingers on the iPhone 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 you record a sequence of taps or drag gestures, they’re all played back at the same time. For example, using one finger or a stylus to record four separate, sequential taps at four locations on the screen creates a simultaneous four-finger tap.
-
-
If your gesture doesn’t turn out quite right, tap Cancel, then try again.
-
When you’re satisfied with your gesture, tap Save, then name the gesture.
To use your custom gesture, tap the AssistiveTouch menu button, tap Custom, then choose the gesture. When the blue circles representing your gesture appear, drag them to where you want to use the gesture, then release.
