seeking a word processor that works well with a Braille display

Braille on Apple Products

Hi. I just got the Chameleon 20 and was looking for a good word processor. I have a Mac and an Iphone. So far I've tried to use Google Docs with almost no success, Pages worked a little better but was far from ideal because my cursor would constantly jump and sometimes my display would go blank and act as if I hadn't written anything. The standard Notes app seems to work pretty well but I don't think I would be able to use it for class assignments because there aren't that many formatting options. Any suggestions would be really appreciated. Thanks!

Voice Dream Writer for iOS

I'd recommend Voice Dream Writer for iOS. I've not found a reliable solution on the Mac, though I also don't frequent a Mac so I hope someone else will have a suggestion for you. It's my impression from what I've learned that you won't find a perfect solution on either platform, but I would absolutely love to be wrong! That's one of the reasons I have stuck with Windows.

I use Ulysses

I'm using Ulysses and I like it because it looks like a typical word editor within Microsoft itself on windows. It is cross platform with the Mac. The nice thing is you can create a blank window with a document so it's not using the canvas format that you see in pages in word. It is a paid app which kind of stinks, but ultimately I found it to work the best!
