How do you lock an iPad mouse pointer in one position when playing web games

When I play web games on iPad with a mouse, the cursor doesn’t lock when it’s supposed to. For example if you are playing a shooter game the mouse will be locked into one position and moving the mouse would move the camera. How can I do this in an iPad?

iPad (8th generation)

Greetings SapphireHam,


The available pointer settings for the mouse when using iPad are outlined the following article:

Go to Settings  > Accessibility > Pointer Control, then adjust any of the following:
* Increase Contrast
* Automatically Hide Pointer
* Color
* Pointer size
* Pointer Animations
* Trackpad Inertia (available when connected to a supported multi-touch trackpad)
* Scrolling Speed


Since locking the pointer isn't an available option, you're welcome to submit feedback to Apple with your thoughts and suggestions on features you'd like to see. You can use the following link to leave feedback:
