one or more keys to actions.

2. Tap Switch Access.
3.
Turn Use service on .
4. Follow onscreen instructions to select:
•
Number of switches
•
Scanning options
•
Switch assignments
To adjust options for Switch Access later, go to Settings > Accessibility > Switch Access > Settings.
Use Switch Access
1. Connect the external device to your phone by pairing with Bluetooth or using USB. See the
manufacturer’s instructions for details.
