How do I remove this “shadow” icon button from my screen? When you tap it , it turns into a control panel

Hello shanesan70,

Thanks for choosing the Apple Support Communities. If we understand correctly, you want to turn off AssistiveTouch. We can understand why you'd reach out for a solution.

Here is a resource that can help.

Use AssistiveTouch on iPad

"To turn AssistiveTouch on or off quickly, triple-click the Home button (on an iPad with a Home button) or triple-click the top button (on other iPad models)."

Cheers!
