For me braille screen input is a work in progress. But as always Andy I find
your resources and advice oh so helpful! Thank you for being you!

Thanks Andy.  You and Rick did a great job last night.  I learned a lot, and
I'm going to give braille input a try.

Hello!

 

First, thanks to Rick for helping with a great presentation!!  I hope
everyone who attended the Braille Group meeting tonight found it
beneficial!!

 

Several people were asking about a reference for commands useful in the
Braille Screen Input Command Mode.

 

First off, this article on AppleVis
<https://www.applevis.com/forum/braille-apple-products/list-commands-bsi-ios
-18>  has a summary of all gestures and letters that perform functions while
in this mode.  Additionally, this article about Braille displays and iOS
<https://www.applevis.com/guides/using-braille-display-ios-introduction>  is
worth a read.

 

I'll also repost this link
<https://www.applevis.com/guides/guide-braille-screen-input-ios-ipados>  to
a thorough introduction to Braille Screen Input in general.

 

Finally, I'll turn your attention to this episode of Living Blindfully, a
now-defunct podcast by Jonathan Mosen.  Episode 300
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2764ahA8Q8&t=2144>  talks about a lot of
the new changes, but does not talk about Braille Screen Input in-depth.
Episode 144 has a more in-depth explanation.

 

I hope everyone finds this useful!
