You can create a custom, 3D-printable capacitive stylus that can be used by individuals with limited hand control to interact with a smartphone or tablet. You'll need to install a free copy of OpenSCAD.

The design has changed over time, but the concept is the same as can be found in these videos:

The "solid finger stylus.scad" program can be used to take the stylus parts you designed and assemble them into a single solid stylus that doesn't need to be glued together. More information on that process here: https://volksswitch.org/index.php/creating-a-solid-finger-stylus/
Note that you can't create a solid stylus using the Thingiverse Customizer, you must use the OpenSCAD software running on your own computer.
