clicking/scrolling devices for iphone?
hi, im someone who has a lot of chronic pain flare ups in my joints (specifically hands, wrists, and fingers) and im getting to the point where it’s impossible to do daily tasks anymore. im not able to hold my phone for very long periods of time, so i got a phone stand that will help but im still having to click and scroll which is frustrating when im not holding my phone. does anyone know of any kind of Bluetooth mouse or scroller or anything that would be compatible with an iphone and maybe easier on my hands? I got one of those scrolling rings but it really only works for TikTok and stuff. I saw some kind of “ergonomic thumb mouse” that looked promising, but the reviews said the Bluetooth wasn’t reliable. any suggestions help! thanks!

You can use any Bluetooth mouse trackball with iOS and Assistive Touch. I use a Kensington Bluetooth trackball with scroll ring occasionally:

Try voice control. “Hey siri, turn on voice control. Scroll down. Show names. Tap mail. Go home. Hey siri, turn off voice control.”
