Creating an auto clicker on iPhone, step by step
Open Accessibility, then Touch
The auto clicker is created under "Accessibility" › "Touch". Open your iPhone's "Settings", go to "Accessibility", then "Touch".
Turn on AssistiveTouch
Once AssistiveTouch is on, a floating button appears. Open "AssistiveTouch" and flip the switch at the very top. A small "floating button" appears on your screen.
Create a custom gesture
Record your taps, then name the gesture "Autoclicker". In AssistiveTouch, tap "Create New Gesture". Tap the same spot quickly several times to record the click, name the gesture (e.g. "Autoclicker"), then tap "Save".
Run the auto click
From the floating button, launch your auto-click gesture. Open the AssistiveTouch "floating button", go to "Custom" gestures and tap your gesture. Hold it on the screen: the iPhone repeats the click automatically.
Good to know
This "native" auto click needs no app and works in most apps. It replays exactly the gesture you recorded, wherever you trigger it.
Good to know
- The gesture replays your taps "exactly": redo it if the rhythm isn't right.
- Some "games" block automated gestures, so the auto click may not work there.
- You can create "several different gestures" and find them all in the AssistiveTouch menu.
Frequently asked questions
- Do I need to install an app for an iPhone auto click?
- No. AssistiveTouch and custom gestures are built into iOS, so you create an auto click without any third-party app.
- Does the auto click work in games?
- Often yes, but some games detect and block automated gestures. The result depends on the app you're targeting.
- How do I delete the auto-click gesture?
- Go back to Settings › Accessibility › Touch › AssistiveTouch › Custom Gestures, then delete the recorded gesture.
