@TimDixon82 I mean I would say more braille users I know including myself use it more for text entry via #BrailleScreenInput or to proof read while typing with a #BrailleDisplay than use it primarily for reading.

@ChocolatePie I mean if they are a #braille user I would just say skip the hassle and go straight to #BrailleScreenInput .

@reina I’m not using my #BrailleDisplay right now just the #BrailleScreenInput on my phone.

So I am loving #talkback 14.0 which rolled out yesterday and is almost entirely focused on #braille, #BrailleScreenInput , and #BrailleDisplay support including additional editing functions for displays and editing, granular control, and additional gestures within braille input.

@loren My favorite typing method on a phone keyboard is #BrailleScreenInput. Something like it is available on #Android as well. https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/type-onscreen-braille-iph10366cc30/ios

Has anybody experienced having rearranged dots when typing on #BrailleScreenInput ? Right now, on #iOS 16.4, the dots on my screen are laid out as 1 2 3 on the left side and 4 6 5 (instead of 4 5 6) on the right. I've recalibrated several times, switched between 6 dot to contracted, switched between screen away and table top modes, restarted #VoiceOver, and restarted my #iPhone . I'm going to email #Apple #accessibility about this. I just thought I'd post here first, in case anybody has suggestions on how to fix it.

For those using Braille Screen Input on the iPhone, did you know that there are navigation gestures now? You can move around the text by character, word, or line. Here is how it is done.
1, In Braille Screen Input, hold one finger down on any dot. You must keep that finger down during the whole process.
2, It will make a couple of beeps, then say, Exploring mode. This is the mode it has to be in, in order to move the cursor around. If you left your finger off the dot, it will leave exploring mode, so again, keep it held down.
3, Here is the 3 gestures needed. They all use 2 fingers.
2 finger flick up and down moves between navigation types; character, word, or line.
2 finger swipe to the left, moves cursor forward or right by character, word, or line.
2 finger swipe to the right, moves cursor backwards or left by character, word, or line.
This is been demonstrated on several podcast, here is a link to one of those demonstrations. #iPhone #BrailleScreenInput #navigatingText #PodcastLink https://overcast.fm/+mZq2BorXc/42:30
