Features
Switch AccessRelatively few Apps are designed specifically for switch access. They tend to be the ones that offer the widest range of scan options and may be the ‘safest’ choice for switch users. These are marked in this wheel with a small red ‘s’ (beside the App icon).From iOS7 and above, Accessibility settings built-in to the iPad mean that almost any App (and the iPad itself, desktop, and functions) can be operated by external switches (or by using the screen as a switch). But be careful! A few do not work at all – or not well – with iOS switch control. Always check before buying - perhaps via a specialist centre such as CALL Scotland - whether it actually works or not!

This wheel includes Apps that CALL Scotland broadly finds reliable and useful and/or that stand out in their category.
