Apple has made huge changes to the new iPad OS. It now includes mouse support for both Bluetooth devices and USB.

 

The new mouse support reportedly works with the USB mouse, wireless Bluetooth mouse and Apple’s Magic Trackpad. It is also available only as an accessibility feature. This new support is implemented as an AssistiveTouch feature. The cursor works like the typical touch target found in iOS. Its designation enables it to simulate a finger touch and has mouse support.

 

 

The iPad OS also has a new home screen full of widgets and multitasking improvements. Apple also split the iPad OS from iOS. This is enabling more features to the iPad hardware. Developers are now trying to get their hands on the beta version of the iPad OS.

 

The upcoming mouse support from Apple is also likely to give better accessibility to iPad users with disabilities.

 

The mouse support for iPad is a feature that has been frequently requested by Apple users. The feature will most likely usher in a new Apple hardware to support its functionality. This feature will make it easier to use the iPad as they would a PC. It will also make it more useful for typing documents and filling out forms.

 

 

One of Apple’s directors, Sarah Herrlinger, has said that the feature is going to benefit more than the original community they designed it to support. She explained that people living with disabilities will now be able to use the iPad with limited stress.

 

The functionality of the AssistiveTouch menu in the new iPad OS and iOS 13 are touch-based. Apple also announced other accessibility features during its developer’s conference on Monday, 3rd June 2019.

 

Furthermore, Apple announced the next version of the new Mac Catalina OS with full voice control support. Users will be able to control the Mac without needing to touch a mouse or keyboard.
