What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · November 1, 2026
The it-Switch is a wireless switch with a low, slanted profile and a flat base. It responds to very light pressure, so it suits someone with limited movement who needs a way to activate adapted toys, computer software, or tablet apps. It comes in a small size (75mm) or a large size (125mm), and it works up to about 10 metres from its receiver. It is a piece of a larger setup: it needs a compatible receiver or app to do anything, and only the large size can be mounted to an arm, using a separate triangular mounting plate.

What setup looks like
- Out of the box
Press the switch to check it responds. It does nothing on its own until it is linked to a receiver or app. - With a guide
- Connect the switch to your chosen receiver (it-Receive, a toy control unit, or Switcher-4) or to the SimplyWorks for iPad app, following the manufacturer's directions.
- Test it from the spot where the user will sit, staying within the 10-metre range. See manufacturer support resources for detailed instructions.
- With professional help
An OT, SLP, or ATP can help choose the small or large size, find the best placement and mounting, and match the switch to the activity or software. Plan a session of about an hour for the first trial.
