You can automate taps on your iPhone with built in settings or third party apps. iOS does not offer a direct auto clicker like Android, but you can still automate repeated taps using accessibility tools or dedicated apps. This guide explains every working method in simple, clear steps.
Auto clickers help you automate tapping on your screen. You can use them to repeat taps in games, forms, workflows, or testing tasks. On iOS, Apple restricts direct auto clicker tools, so you either use built in accessibility features or install approved apps from the App Store.

Built in Accessibility Auto Tap
This method uses Apple’s accessibility system to repeat a tap in the same location. It does not require any app downloads and works on modern iPhones and iPads.
Auto Tap via Switch Control
- Open Settings on your iPhone.
- Go to Accessibility.
- Tap Switch Control.
- Select Tap Behavior.
- Turn Auto Tap on.
- Choose Dwell Time to set how long the device waits before repeating a tap.
This setup simulates repeated taps after you position the selector. It works best for simple, repeated tapping in a fixed location.
Custom Gesture with Switch Control
You can record a pattern of taps as a custom gesture. iOS then repeats that gesture automatically when activated.
Create and Use a Custom Auto Gesture
- Go to Settings and open Accessibility.
- Tap Switch Control.
- Select Recipes.
- Tap New Recipe.
- Enter a name for the gesture.
- Tap Assign a Switch and choose Full Screen.
- Select Custom Gesture.
- Tap the screen in the pattern you want to repeat.
- Save the gesture.
- Enable Switch Control to start using the recipe.
This method works best for fixed tap patterns that do not change position.
AssistiveTouch Custom Gestures
AssistiveTouch also lets you record and replay gestures using an on-screen menu. This option gives you quick access without deep menus.
Program Auto Click Gestures
- Open Settings.
- Tap Accessibility.
- Go to Touch and select AssistiveTouch.
- Turn AssistiveTouch on.
- Tap Create New Gesture.
- Record the tap or swipe pattern.
- Name and save the gesture.
- Use the AssistiveTouch button to replay the gesture.
This method is ideal for repeating short actions or tap sequences in the same area.
