iOS requires you to enable an accessibility feature called AssistiveTouch [0] to use a mouse with a phone/ipad.
If you already had it on, you could probably use it own the device pretty quick, but it's not enabled by default.

- ezequiel-garzon 3y agoI can't test it, but the instructions seem to refer to AssistiveTouch only for Bluetooth devices: """To connect a Bluetooth device: 1. Go to Settings > Accessibility, and select Touch. 2. Select AssistiveTouch > Devices, then select Bluetooth Devices. 3. Select your device from the list."""
- rahimnathwani 3y agoI've used a mouse (non-Bluetooth) with my son's iPad Pro (within the last year), and I didn't have to enable AssistiveTouch. I just checked and it's not enabled. Is this requirement a very recent change? (I don't have my own iPad with me right now, but I don't recall enabling AssistiveTouch to get the Logitech keyboard+trackpad working.) EDIT: I looked online and apparently prior to 13.4 AssistiveTouch was required to use a mouse. But now you don't need it if you only want basic mouse functionality.
- behnamoh 3y agoThis is false. I've used a BT mouse with my iPad and didn't need to enable this feature.
