I want to be able to read Bookshare books in Braille off the NLS Display and I don’t know what apps are supported? Is read2go still available?
Thanks

also try speech central. This and those posted above post all will do what youwant. Read2go is no more. I still have it on my iPhone, but it may not be able to migrate to a new phone. Of all of these programs listed, voicedream reader is my personal favorite. If you also need newspapers, then dolphin easy reader would be the one you should consider.

bookshare web reader also works great

I honestly preferred just using the bookshare web reader when I was mostly using iOS. Just made more sense to me and it's super accessible there.

How do you use it with a Braille display?

I have dolphin EasyReader on my iPad but I don’t know how to use it with my Braille display. I wish NLS would directly add Bookshare to their online services.

Voice dream reader, and something else you should try

I like Voice Dream Reader. Also, one other thing you could try. Depending on what display you have. If you download a book to Ipad or maybe computer. Then, unzip, and put it on a USB. stick, or SAID. card and then put that in the display? I know it's a little more involved and complicated. But, you'd get your books. Frankly, I tried Dolphin a while back. And, I was not a fan. Maybe it was because I'd already gotten used to Voice Dream. But, I thought the interface was a bit of a challenge. I listened to the podcast on it, and still couldn't figure it out. So, I just gave up on it. Hope this heps.
