You need to turn off "confirm with assistive touch"

Step 1 go to the settings tap Accessibility

Step 2 then tap Touch then you can see AssistiveTouch

Step 3 Open AssistiveTouch then scroll down at last you can see Confirm with AssistiveTouch

Go into the settings, and accessibility. Then go to "touch", and turn off assistive touch. Then go to the very bottom of the page, and make sure the "confirm with assistive touch" is off. Then go back to accessibility, and open the "Face ID and attention". Turn on "Require attention for Face ID". You can go to the bottom, and turn on "Haptic on Successful Authentication" I use that, because it will play a little noise, and display a check mark when downloading apps and paying with apple pay, to show it was successful.

THIS IS IT!

Found this on Reddit.


You can get to the Confirm with Apple Pay button with the Device menu option.

To set it up, tie one of your AssistiveTouch Custom Actions to “Open Menu”, and make sure “Device” is one of your menu items.

Custom Actions (any) -> Open Menu -> Device

To make purchases, schlep to “Apple Pay” when prompted.

Device -> More -> Apple Pay -> Confirm Apple Pay

The Confirm Apple Pay option will show up when you’re in a double-click-side-button situation. Otherwise, the Device menu lets you open Wallet.

The shortcut named Apple Pay only opens Wallet.

I found that I had to follw Rajeep's advice (turn off the Assistive Touch step)

first, and then follow these side button steps here.


Those two, in that order, was the only true fix for me.

Cheers!


Go to:

Settings ➡️Accessibility ➡️Touch➡️AssistiveTouch➡️Confirm with Assistive Touch➡️OFF

THEN

Settings ➡️Accessibility➡️Side Button➡️Enable Confirm with Switch Control

THEN

Settings ➡️Accessibility➡️Side Button Confirmation➡️OFF

I’VE FOUND THE SOLUTION

Step 1: Go to settings and on the search bar, type in ‘Side Button’

Step 2: Press the option at the top- it will say ‘Side button➡️Accessibility’

Step 3: Higlighted blue, it will say ‘enable AssistiveTouch’ Press it and it will take you to another setting,

Step 4: At the very bottom of that page it will say confirm with assistive touch- press that button so that it isn’t green anymore and your problem will be solved.

Thanks VERY much.

I can't sufficiently express how much I despise this "feature."

Hello,

Here is how it has to be done on iPhone

Enabling AssistiveTouch

  1. Go to Settings  > Accessibility > Touch > AssistiveTouch.
  2. Turn on AssistiveTouch.


Enabling side button for Apple Pay

  1. Next go to Settings  > Wallet & Apple Pay > Enable "Double-Click Side Button"


Customizing AssistiveTouch for ApplePay

  1. Go to Settings  > Accessibility > Touch > AssistiveTouch > Customize Top Level Menu
  2. Click on the '+' on the bottom of the screen to create a new icon with '+'
  3. Click on the newly created '+' to choose ApplePay from System Tab and click "Done"
  4. You are all set for this.


How to verify

  1. When you want to make the payment, click on AssistiveTouch icon on the Screen
  2. It opens up the Menu and shows options. wit the ApplePay icon that you had created in the earlier section.
  3. Click on it to show the available cards for payment
  4. Once the cards are shown, click on the AssistiveTouch again, this time the menu opens up to show 'Confirm ApplePay' option
  5. Click on this and you are done.


Hope this helps
