Assistive Access shows blank screen
So, I want to try out Apple's new Assistive Access on my iPad, but when I enter Assistive Access, it just shows a blank screen after a few minutes. What does this mean?

To add apps to use in Assistive Access: see if you can:
exit Assistive Access:
triple-click the Home button (on an iPad with a Home button)
or the top button (on other iPad models),
tap Exit Assistive Access,
then enter the Assistive Access passcode.
More info: How to: Exit Assistive Access if it’s active.

Then to: "Add or remove apps for Assistive Access
Important: Some features, such as app access permissions and privacy information, work differently in Assistive Access. See Understand certain differences in Assistive Access. "

Wondering if you still need to set-up Assistive Access.
Apple support have a video that may help:

All the best :-)
When you enter Assistive Access:
To see and choose from the apps you set up to use with Assistive Access: you may need to tap "Start Using Assistive Access", then enter the Assistive Access passcode.
You may want to contact the Accessibility Team for help with using this feature:
See: How to contact Apple for accessibility support - Apple Support
or

(NB: You can "Get Support" from the link at the bottom of their website:)
I have a lot of apps to add to Assistive Access. I clicked on "Start Assistive Access" and entered my passcode, then it is stuck at the "Entering Assistive Access…" screen. I spent many hours waiting for the iPad to enter, and it is still not entering. After a few minutes the screen turned off, and when I click the home button or side button, the screen turned on and it still showed nothing on the screen.
I have already set up Assistive Access. The only problem is to fix the blank screen when I start Assistive Access.
