Assistive touch

Hello guys, I can’t move my assistive touch around my screen after the new IOS 16 update… it’s functional but I just can’t move it. It’s stuck to one place on my screen… can anyone be of assistance?

Assistive touch disappears every time I turn off my ipad Every time I turn off and on my ipad (I do this weekly), the assistive touch disappears. At first I could just turn it off and back on with the toggle in the settings, to make it re-appear. But the only thing that works now after multiple tries, is to reset the assistive touch menu. Only then I’m able to get it back. Which is pretty frustrating, if I have to do this at least every week. Does anyone have the same issue? I’m using my iPad 2019 (7th gen), 10.2 inch with iPadOS 18.2

assistive touch won’t appear on ipad and control center too it used to be that everytime i would open it after shutting it down, the assistive touch would disappear but i can still go to the settings to toggle it off then on and it would reappear. now, no matter how much i do the same or reset the ipad, the assistive touch just won’t show itself. i don’t even know how to open control center without it because whenever i’d swipe up it would just put me out of the app or pull up a note instead. im on an ipad 5. thank you!
