iPad users can change the cursor tracking speed on the iPad. Some users want to change this when the cursor may move too fast or slow for them.

Here's how:

Open the Settings app on the iPad.
Go to “General”.
Choose “Trackpad & Mouse”.
Look for the Tracking Speed slider at the top of the screen.
Drag the dial towards the left turtle to slow the cursor down, or dragging the dial towards the right rabbit to speed the cursor up.
You can adjust this setting as many times as you need too.
That's it.
