What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
The Bluetooth Super Switch is a large 5-inch diameter wireless switch that sends a Bluetooth activation signal to an iPad or computer when pressed. It's designed for people who have difficulty using standard keyboards or touchscreens due to limited hand control or motor impairments — particularly those who need a single large target they can hit reliably. The switch connects wirelessly, removing cable clutter, and includes a built-in wired switch port so a second external switch can be added for two-switch scanning setups. This is just the access device — you'll need switch-accessible apps, software, or AAC tools on the receiving iPad or computer to actually put it to use.

What Setup Looks Like
- Out of the box
Press the switch to confirm it activates — the button itself works as soon as charged. - With a guide
- Pair the switch to your iPad or computer via Bluetooth settings (typically under 5 minutes).
- Open a switch-accessible app or enable switch control in the device's accessibility settings.
- Test single-switch or two-switch scanning with your chosen software to confirm correct input registration. See manufacturer support resources for detailed instructions.
- With professional help
- An occupational therapist (OT) or assistive technology professional (ATP) can assess optimal switch placement, mounting position, and whether single or two-switch scanning is most appropriate.
- An SLP or ATP can configure switch access within AAC or communication software for best outcomes — expect 1-2 sessions.
