Put a small floating button on your iPhone that runs OfferIQ over the app you are using.
Keep single-tap for Open Menu. Double-tap to analyze a supported offer screenshot;
long-press to record the last offer as Accepted in OfferIQ. That shortcut
updates the record only—it does not accept a ride in Uber or Lyft. Configure and test it
while parked. Availability and labels can vary by iPhone and iOS release.
The button can only run shortcuts that are already in your Shortcuts app. If you set OfferIQ up in the app you likely have these — otherwise add them here (iPhone only).
Keep the menu on Single-Tap and assign the two shortcuts to Double-Tap and Long Press, just as in OfferIQ’s guided setup.
1
Turn on AssistiveTouch
Open Settings › Accessibility › Touch › AssistiveTouch and switch it on. A small round button appears on the screen — drag it to a corner where it won’t cover an offer.
2
Find “Custom Actions”
Stay on that same AssistiveTouch screen and scroll down to Custom Actions. You’ll see three rows: Single-Tap, Double-Tap and Long Press.
3
Single-Tap → Open Menu
Tap Single-Tap and choose Open Menu, then go back. This keeps the AssistiveTouch menu available.
4
Double-Tap → Analyze Offer
Tap Double-Tap, scroll to your shortcuts in the action list, and choose Analyze Offer. A checkmark confirms it, then tap back.
5
Long Press → Mark Last Offer Accepted
Back under Custom Actions, tap Long Press and choose Mark Last Offer Accepted the same way.
6
Test it before you drive
While safely parked, follow OfferIQ’s guided practice: show the analysis sample and double-tap the button. For the protected Accepted test, first choose Test recording Accepted in OfferIQ, then long-press. In normal use, that action records the last analyzed offer as Accepted in OfferIQ; it does not accept a ride in Uber or Lyft. Single-tap still opens the menu.
Your gesture map: Single-Tap opens the menu, Double-Tap runs Analyze Offer, and Long Press runs Mark Last Offer Accepted. Configure and test both shortcuts while parked.

Add both shortcuts to the menu
You can also add named entries to the Single-Tap menu while keeping your Double-Tap and Long Press actions.
1
Open the menu editor
On the AssistiveTouch screen, tap Customize Top Level Menu (UK/Australia: “Customise”). You’ll see the current menu icons in a grid.
2
Add a slot
Tap the + below the grid to add a blank slot — the menu holds up to 8 icons. Or reuse an icon you don’t need.
3
Assign Analyze Offer
Tap the slot, scroll to your shortcuts at the bottom, choose Analyze Offer, then tap the blue tick in the top-right to save.
4
Assign Mark Last Offer Accepted
Add or tap another slot and repeat for Mark Last Offer Accepted.
5
Use it
Single-tap the floating button to open the menu, then choose the shortcut by name. These menu entries work alongside Double-Tap and Long Press.
What to expect the first time
Adding a shortcut opens a review screen. Check its name and actions, then choose Add Shortcut.
The first run may ask for permission. Review the requested access and choose what to allow.
During a run, iOS may show a small progress bar over your current app. Permissions, errors and notification settings can affect what appears.
No button, or an easier one
Three more ways to trigger a shortcut
You can also use a physical button, Back Tap, or Siri for quick access.
Back Tap
No on-screen button — tap the back of the phone. Settings › Accessibility › Touch › Back Tap, then set Double Tap = Analyze Offer and Triple Tap = Mark Last Offer Accepted. Works on iPhone 8 and later.
Heads-up: a rigid car mount can absorb the taps — test it in your mount.
Action Button
On supported iPhones, open Settings › Action Button, swipe to Shortcut → Choose a Shortcut. It gives you a physical-button option, but it holds only one shortcut.
Pair it with AssistiveTouch or Back Tap for Mark Last Offer Accepted.
“Hey Siri”
For a voice-trigger option, say “Hey Siri, Analyze Offer”. After installing a shortcut, use its name as the Siri trigger phrase.
Test this while parked; recognition can vary with noise and environment.
Version 3.2.5
Set up the CarPlay widget and trip reminders
Add the Classify Trip widget for quick Business and Personal choices, with separate reminders for trips that need attention. See what’s new in version 3.2.5.
1
Choose a Business purpose
In OfferIQ, open Account › Settings › Workspaces › CarPlay presets. The first preset with a complete Business purpose for an enabled workspace supplies the widget’s Business action, alongside Personal. Move your preferred purpose first; a generic Business choice still needs purpose review.
2
Add Classify Trip to your car
On iOS 26 or later, while parked, open iPhone Settings › General › CarPlay › your car › Widgets › Add Widgets, then choose OfferIQ’s Classify Trip widget. It appears on the widget screen to the left of Dashboard; swipe right from Dashboard to see it. Its buttons require a touchscreen vehicle. Apple’s CarPlay widget guide shows the system setup.
3
Allow separate trip-ready reminders
In Workspaces › CarPlay presets, choose Allow CarPlay notifications. Turn on OfferIQ’s Trip Ready for Review notification setting for reminders about eligible saved trips that still need classification after Calendar is checked. Quiet hours, Focus and iOS notification settings control whether a reminder appears.
The widget does not open automatically after a trip. Use its Business or Personal button to classify. Trip-ready reminders are separate notifications; tapping a reminder alone does not save a classification.
Setup questions
What if the labels on my iPhone look different?
Apple may adjust labels or the Settings layout between iOS releases. Search Settings for AssistiveTouch if the path differs, then look for Custom Actions.
The “Custom Actions” section isn’t on the AssistiveTouch screen — where is it?
Turn the AssistiveTouch toggle at the top ON first, then scroll down. Custom Actions (Single-Tap, Double-Tap, Long Press) sits lower on the same screen, below the toggle and below Customize Top Level Menu.
My OfferIQ shortcuts aren’t in the action list.
The shortcut has to already be in the Shortcuts app. Add Analyze Offer and Mark Last Offer Accepted first (tap their install links above and choose Add Shortcut), and they’ll appear by name at the very bottom of the action list — Apple’s built-in actions are listed first, so keep scrolling.
Which gesture should I use for which shortcut?
Use OfferIQ’s recommended mapping: Single-Tap → Open Menu, Double-Tap → Analyze Offer, and Long Press → Mark Last Offer Accepted. Configure and test both shortcuts while parked.
Will running a shortcut kick me out of the app I am using?
The shortcuts are designed to run over the app you are using and return to it when finished. iOS can still show permission requests or errors. Complete the guided practice while parked so you know what to expect on your iPhone.
The first time I tap it, iOS asks for permission.
iOS may request access when a shortcut first uses an action. Review the requested access and choose the permission you want to grant. Available choices and later prompts depend on the action and your iOS settings.
Can I hide the floating button when I’m not driving?
Yes. Go to Settings › Accessibility › Accessibility Shortcut and tap AssistiveTouch, then triple-click the side button (or the Home button on Touch ID iPhones) to show or hide it whenever you like.
A shortcut seemed to hang and didn’t come back.
If a shortcut ever looks stuck behind the bar at the top of the screen, tap the centre of that bar to dismiss it. Keeping the shortcuts simple — no pop-ups or questions mid-run — gives the smoothest tap-and-return experience.
Will the CarPlay widget open automatically after a trip?
No. Add the version 3.2.5 widget yourself on iOS 26 or later. It lives on the widget screen to the left of CarPlay Dashboard, and its buttons require a touchscreen vehicle. Trip-ready reminders are separate notifications controlled by your OfferIQ and iOS settings; tapping a reminder does not classify a trip.
The whole point: decide before you drive
OfferIQ reads supported offer screenshots on-device, compares them with your targets, and can speak the result aloud. Double-Tap puts the analysis shortcut within reach.
