Using Twiddler with iOS

Twiddler is fully compatible with iOS devices such as iPhone and iPad. Here’s a step-by-step guide to connect your Twiddler to your iOS device:

Step 1: Turn on AssistiveTouch on your iOS

To do this, head over to your iPhone Settings > Accessibility > Touch > AssistiveTouch tgimages.s3.amazonaws.com_twiddler_wiki_t4ios_step1a.jpg Click the AssistiveTouch and switch it ON. tgimages.s3.amazonaws.com_twiddler_wiki_t4ios_step1b.jpg

Turning the AssistiveTouch ON is necessary to allow iOS to use an additional external device - in this case, your Twiddler.

Step 2: Connect your Twiddler

Once the AssistiveTouch is enabled, scroll down and find Devices > Bluetooth Devices. Using your Twiddler, press and hold the Touchpad until you see a flashing Blue LED. This means that your Twiddler is pairing with your iOS device. Devices>Bluetooth Devices
