Can I customize ipad sidebar buttons?

I'm using iPad as a second screen and would like to include a couple of Photoshop shortcut buttons on the iPad's sidebar. Is it possible? Photoshop runs on MacBook Pro. iPad connected to the laptop by sidecar.

iPad Pro (3rd generation)

The options on the sidebar are static and cannot be added to or changed in the current version of Sidecar and iPadOS. You can see more info about using Sidecar here:


If there's tweaks you'd like to see added, or features you'd like to see implemented, we advise leaving feedback for Apple Support here:


Take care.

Hi, I think I need to be more specific to explain my question. There's this button (the first pic, circled with red); in Photoshop when you press it, your Apple pen turns into an eraser. I just wanted to include this button on my iPad's sidebar (pic 2 - black sidebar on the left-hand side) as an extra button. When I use an iPad as a second screen, it's convenient to have all the function buttons on the screen (like shift, option, command - which are already on sidebar) Can I include an extra button? Is the sidebar of the iPad customizable?
