MBraille

I was having a LOT of issues getting letters to work, but once I locked the app into Away mode, everything worked much better. So I would suggest doing the same as Sockhopsinger did.

The comments posted about the pricing of this app have now been moved to the forum - you can find the topic here

You can paste into any app. Once you back out of MBraille with the Home button, whatever you typed in the app is saved to your clipboard. Then you can go to wherever you want and paste the text.

Doubt it. If so this would not make sense in buying the pro version, as theoretically one could paste the text typed in some other application, including Facebook, Twitter and Calendar themselves. I can't truly comment though as I did not use the free version for long.

No, pasting doesn't work in the free version.

I thought not. That would defeat the object.

J, dots 2-4-5, is very close to the D. Make sure your left pointer finger is not accidentally too far down on the keyboard.

My test was not complete.
In the settings, select the echo both letter and word.
When you type a single 'd' VoiceOver says 'j' but if you type for example 'default' followed by a space, VoiceOver says the correct word.

Yes, I type in french.

Hi! In the past I have tried several brailling apps for IOS, but for different reasons, which I won't go into here, I decided not to keep them. However, when I recently read about MBraille, it made me reverse my previous decision not to try any more brailling apps: I was so impressed with its features when I read about them in this here app directory entry, such as two modes of brailling, the inclusion of contracted braille in English, and the fact that this app can be multilingual, and those features made me decide to get it for my iPhone 4S. I only installed the app yesterday, and have only just started to test the free version: since the paid version costs 26.99 euros in the French app store, I will give the free version plenty of testing before I decide whether to buy the full version or not. I can already say that my brailling with this app is well on the way to being pretty accurate even within 24 hours of getting the MBraille app, and I'm sure it'll improve with practice: I must admit I find it easier to position my fingers for the mode where you hold the device with the screen away from you, but I'm not doing too badly with that in the other mode, so currently I still haven't chosen one or the other. As I write in French and German as well as English, those possibilities will be great to have if I do decide to purchase the app. I know MBraille is far from cheap as apps go, but I can understand the choice of pricing it a bit high, given its numerous features and the fact that the market for this app is small: also, even the free version of MBraille can be pretty productive. Given all these advantages, it's thanks to MBraille that my interest in brailling apps for IOS has been reawakened, at least to the point where I'm taking interest in this one.

I would have said crawling and flying!

Best app ever for typing in braille on my iphone! I almost never pull out my braille display. However Mbraille is always with me and just a tap or two away! I haven't got the pro version yet, but Mbraille is fast becoming my most used app. Mbraille handles contracted braille so much better than the built in Apple braille support! Apple should hire the Mbraille developer to help them implement braille properly on the Ipho. Excellent work Mbraill!

I'm having no luck with the new two-finger swipe up gesture; absolutely nothing happens when I try it. Is anyone else having this problem, or is it just me?

MBraille with a braille display
I tried MBraille with the braille display. The display does not display the text entered in the braille typing mode. The display does flash up the information spoken as it is spoken in the braille mode. Once out of the braille keyboard the braille display is perfectly supported. If you happen to like typing better in MBraille but still want to review your work on the display before sending it, you can!

i like the way ,EMbraille waits for a space before translating the contracted braille.

Try dots 4-5-6, 1-4-5-6 together.

Hi, folks,
I followed the directions to tweet, and it obligingly said "tweet sent " but the tweet did not appear on my twitter page afterward. Am I doing something wrong?

Hello all,I have been trying to send sms using mBraille and sometimes my message was not sent and it just got lost. Have anyone face this? This happen quite often though I can't reproduce this reliably in terms of regularity. Can someone help? Thanks in advance.

I have had this problem as well and am not sure what the issue is. I thought it might have something to do with the fact that after i type s m s and the name of my contact and the send screen comes up there is often a few second lag. In that lag I will touch the screen a few times and those touches take a minute and then all register at the same time. I was thinking that maybe one of those touches is typing a random letter in the contact field and that is making it not send right. I'm not even sure if that makes since though, and it sounds like sockhopsinger has a much better understanding of what is going on.

I'm having a similar issue, but I don't have trouble sending the messages. The app will give me an alert saying that the message has been sent, but the person I send it to doesn't receive it. I also went to the messages app, and my message I typed in MBraille shows up there, and says delivered, even when the recipient hasn't gotten anything. I hope they can resolve this issue soon.
