Our range of mouse alternatives is by far the largest in the world for Assistive Technology users and encompasses a huge number of options to cater for the broadest possible range of disabilities. Whether it be wireless connectivity, anti-tremor features, switch-only cursor control or units that are suitable for users with particular disabilities, Pretorian has the answer.
In 2019, Apple introduced mouse support via the Assistive Touch feature in iOS13 for mobile and iPad, making the devices even more accessible. All of Pretorian’s existing range of USB devices can be used directly simply by purchasing an inexpensive adapter cable (often referred to as a camera adapter cable). These are available from major hardware retailers such as Amazon and are manufactured by both Apple and third parties*. If you already have Pretorian mouse alternatives, the adapter is all that you need to start to benefit from this new Apple feature.
If you are looking to purchase new mouse alternatives, you have the choice of either buying a USB device from our huge range or opting for our new BlueLine Bluetooth Joystick. USB products will give you connectivity to almost every kind of device including PC, Mac, Chromebook, iPad/iPhone and some Android devices, allowing you to use Pretorian products in almost any situation. Alternatively, if you purchase a BlueLine Joystick, this will give you wireless connectivity to any device which has built-in Bluetooth (or with use of a plugged-in dongle for the device) which means you won’t need to use an adapter cable. This of course encompasses all tablet devices, whether they are running iOS or Android. BlueLine includes many new features to make tablet devices more accessible such as Move Right/Left and Dwell Click. We have some great content highlighting these features on the product page.

* Ensure you purchase the correct adapter for your device USB type ‘A’ socket to either Lightning or USB-C plug. Please be aware that some very low cost adapters are not Apple approved and in our experience do not function correctly. Be wary of anything which seems too cheap. Of course genuine Apple adapters are the safest choice but also the most expensive. Our recommendation is to purchase an adapter with a ‘pass-through’ power socket so that you can continue to charge the device while still using the mouse equivalent. They are a little more expensive but we think they are worth it. Suggested search term on Amazon: “apple camera adapter cable”.
