AssistiveTouch is part of Apple’s accessibility features that allow users to interact with their iPhone without needing to use physical buttons. The on-screen button acts as a shortcut to essential functions such as returning to the home screen, adjusting volume, taking screenshots, and even locking the screen. It can also be customized to suit your specific needs.
This feature is available on all iPhone models. It can be a lifesaver if your iPhone’s physical buttons (such as the home, volume, or power buttons) aren’t functioning properly, or if you simply prefer to navigate the device with on-screen gestures.
If you want to know how to turn on Assistive Touch on your iPhone 11, this guide will walk you through the steps. You’ll be able to add a floating button on your screen that gives you access to many key functions with just a tap.
