Set up Music for Assistive Access on iPad

A person using Assistive Access on iPad can listen to music from playlists added to the Music app . You can add the Music app when you set up Assistive Access or anytime after.

An iPad in Assistive Access with the Music app open. The Play button is in the upper-left corner of the screen and the Back button is at the bottom. A large grid of playlists fills the rest of the screen.

Add the Music app

Exit Assistive Access if it’s active.
Go to Settings > Accessibility > Assistive Access.
Tap Manage Apps, then tap next to Music.
Tap a playlist to allow it to be played in Assistive Access.
You can create and edit playlists in the Music app. See Create playlists in the iPad User Guide.

Tip: Simplify the Music app by adding just one playlist to Assistive Access. The app then opens directly to the playlist’s list of songs.
