Hi Sophie, this is Helga. Thanks for giving me those steps. I just wanted to 
tell you that I folowed all the steps regarding the BrailleNote Apex, and 
they work fine, but when I get to the iPhone, it recognizes my BrailleNote 
device, but it says no connected, and when I double tap on it, voiceover 
tells me make sure that yor BrailleNote is on and Irange. I don't really 
know what is wrong! with it. Do you know something about this? By the way, 
just to let you know, the first time I tried connecting my BrailleNote my 
voiceover said BrailleNote Apex not pair, and then I double tap on it, and 
then it said pairing, and then it took me to type the ping, and after trying 
many times it didn't work, so that is when voiceover told me not connecting. 
I will really appreciate it a lot if you could help me with this situation. 
Also, if you know someone who knows about this as well that will be great as 
well? Thanks for listening to me. God bless! :)

Helga, here are the steps to connect a braillenote to an iPhone.
1. On the braillenote, go to the options menu.
2. Go to the connectivity menu.
3. Press B for bluetooth. Make sure bluetooth is turned on.
4. When the braillenote says, "Search for devices," DO NOT press
Y for yes. Instead, exit to the main menu and press T for braille
terminal. Make sure the braille terminal port is bluetooth, not
USB.
5. On the iPhone, go to settings/general/accessability/VoiceOver.
Flick right until you see Braille. Then go to Choose a Braille
Device. The iPhone should find your braillenote. When it asks for
a pin, type 0000 really fast because it's on a time limit. Then,
press the pair button and you should be good to go.

I don't know if you can have more than one device connected to
the iPhone at the same time. I hope this helps.

Hi guys, this is Helga. What?™s up? I?™m currently using my
iPhone 5 in order to check emails, and write them, and I already
have my bluetooth keyboard connected to it, but I would like to
have my BrailleNote Apex connected to my iPhone. I really don?™t
know how to do that. Do you guys know how to do that, and what
are the steps in doing so? Also, do you think I could connect my
BrailleNote Apex to my iPhone even though my Bluetooth Keyboard
is connected to it? Just curious! I will really appreciate it a
lot if you could help me in doing so, since I would like to check
and write my college emails in Braille. Thanks and God bless!!
