Touch Settings
Touch Accommodations allows teachers to meet students' fine motor needs by changing how the iPad responds to taps, swipes and other gestures. You can increase hold time, ignore repeated touches, turn on initial or final touch or turn off shake to undo.
Tip: It's recommended that you set up your preferences for touch accommodations before you turn on Touch Accommodations since it changes how your device responds to touch.
It can help students who may require support with:
Touch-and-hold gestures
Accidental taps
Accidental shaking of the iPad
