The circular mouse pointer is displayed on the screen. You can connect the mouse to the iOS device by wired connection or connect the mouse by Bluetooth and use it.
When you open the AssistiveTouch menu, you can see that items related to mouse functions such as 'Pointing Devices', 'Mouse Keys', 'Cursors', 'TRACKING SPEED', etc. are lined up.
Immediately open Safari with the mouse ...
You can use the mouse to scroll and click the screen.
The mouse function can be used not only on the iPad with iPad OS, but also on the iPhone and iPod touch with iOS 13. If you are accustomed to mouse operation, connecting a mouse to your Apple device may make it easier to operate your iPad, iPhone, etc.
Mouse support also works on iPhone and iPod touch!

At the time of writing, it was introduced as an accessibility option for input assistance to the last, but it seems that there is a possibility that the mouse function will be more useful in future improvement.
