Assistive touch is a feature in iOS that lets you enter multi-touch gestures using just one finger. This feature is off by default and can be enabled via the iOS settings. Here is what assistive touch looks like in the iPhone:
Recently, I discovered a bug with assistive touch that does not let the user get to Siri from the assistive touch menu while simultaneously in the “multi-tasking” view. Here are the steps to reproduce the bug:
1. Double click the iPhone home button in order to enter the multi-tasking view
2. Touch the assistive touch icon on the screen in order to also enter the assistive touch view
3. Touch the Siri option
Actual results:
Nothing happens – user is not shown Siri. User sees same screen as step (1) above.
Expected results:
User is shown Siri
