Control my iPad with my iPhone

Hi Experts!


I am trying to control my iPad remotely with my iPhone in order to show some images in the iPad (I want from my iPhone to controle the swiping of the images, etc.)


Is this possible? How?

I've never tried this but this guide seems to indicate it's doable via an accessibility setting:


https://www.helpwire.app/blog/how-to-remote-control-ipad/


Just in case that article disappears, here are the copied steps:


Step 1: Ensure both devices participating in the remote access session are logged into the same Apple ID account and WiFi network;


Step 2: While operating the device that will remotely control the iPad, open Settings


Step 3: Choose Accessibility


Step 4: Set the Switch Control function to ON.


Now it’s time to set up a new “switch”


Step 1: Choose Switches from the Switch Control


Step 2: Choose “Add New Switch”


Step 3: Use your new switch to navigate the Switch Control menu to select Device


Step 4: Click on “Use Other Device”


Step 5: Locate the desired iPad device


Step 6: Click Connect.

I assume the steps is to first set the iPad with same ID as the iPhone. Then in the iPhone do the steps u recommend.  However when I get Step 3, there is no Use Other Device :
