THE POINTER IS A CIRCLE SHAPE??!!

I am new to Apple products. One thing I strongly dislike is the circular pointer. Please - give me an arrow or a hand with a pointer finger. Using a circle for a pointer is the worst visual and tactile shape you could provide to users!


How can I change this horrible circular pointer on my iPad Air to an arrow of some kind??

The circular cursor is broadly intended to replicate a finger touch. Whilst the size of the cursor (which dynamically changes to reflect the functions relating to the object over which it is placed) can be resized in iPad settings, there are no other customisation options.
