I want to enable Assisitive Touch when I connected with my Bluetooth mouse

I want to enable Assistive Touch while using my Bluetooth mouse (Logitech pebble 2). So I want to create an automation for this. I just clicked the Bluetooth section as connected section, it's ok so far, but after this step there are other options like Bluetooth earbuds or my phone etc. But there is no option for my bluetooth mouse (even though it is still connected to the mouse).

Hello,

You can achieve this goal by utilizing Shortcut Automations.

First, install Shortcuts and open it. Open the Automations tab and tap the + to create a new automation. Find Bluetooth and select your device. Ensure both Connected and Disconnected are selected and change it to run immediately. You can disable the notification if you would like. Tap Next> New Blank Automation> tap search, and look for AssistiveTouch. Add it to the automation and change it from on to toggle. Tap done and you should be good to go!

If your mouse does not show up in the menu while it is connected, try closing the Shortcuts app and disconnecting the mouse (turn it off), and try again to locate the mouse in the Bluetooth devices in Shortcuts. I also suggest repairing the mouse if this does not work. If it still does not pop-up, I suggest contacting Apple Support for further assistance with in-depth troubleshooting.

Sincerely,

Captain
