To make the mouse work for me with voiceover, this is what I did: Mouse with iPad - and even with VoiceOver! In iOS 13.4 you can now use a Bluetooth mouse just like on a Mac!Go into Settings, Bluetooth, turn on your Bluetooth mouse and when you spot it at the bottom of the list, tap on the name and then tap on Pair. The pointer that appears on tge screen is circular and initially quite small, but follow along below to change its size and colour! If you use VoiceOver, next go into accessibility settings, VoiceOver and down to Pointer and double tap on that. Now double tap on the option saying Moves VoiceOver cursor. Now go back to VoiceOver settings and double tap on the button speak under pointer and on the next screen double tap to toggle on Speak under pointer! Now go back to Accessibility settings and down to tap on Pointer Control: here you can toggle on Increase contrast, adjust the time that elapses before your stationary mouse pointer temporarily disappears (until you move mouse). You can change the pointer colour and use the slider to change the size of the pointer. Do toggle on Pointer animations. In addition, in Settings, General, when your mouse is turned on and connected to your iPad, a new setting will be visible called Trackpad & Mouse and here you can toggle on the ability to right-click!
To go back to home screen, move cursor to middle bottom of screen and click. Click top right in status bar to open Control Centre. Click at top left of status bar to open Notification Centre.
