IOS app for reading .brf Braille files

By David in the UK, 4 March, 2018

Braille on Apple Products

Good afternoon all,
I am trying to locate an app for my iPhone and/or iPad which will allow me to open .brf files and read them with a bluetooth display.
Any help would be gratefully received.
Many thanks in anticipation.
David

There was an app for that called VoiceBraille. But I tried downloading it from the cloud recently, and it was apparently pulled from the app store.

If you are a Library of Congress NLS customer, I believe you can use the Bard Mobile app to read them.

David will probably not be able to use the BARD app from NLS because it even says in his name that he is from the UK.

There aren't many ways to read .brf files if you aren't an NLS patron. You could try AccessNote, though that app has a few bugs.

Unless one has bought it in the past, access note is not available anymore.
