- Open Settings and tap General. Select Trackpad & Mouse.
- Do any of the following:
- Change the tracking speed: Drag the slider to set the tracking speed of the pointer when you move it across the screen.
- Turn Natural Scrolling on or off: With this option selected, the contents on the screen move in the same direction as your finger.
- Specify a finger to use for Secondary Click: You can specify either the right or left finger to show the Quick Actions menu when you click items like icons on the Home Screen, messages in a mailbox, or the Camera button in Control Center. To turn off Secondary Click, choose Off (Magic Mouse 2).
