User reviews

Not very accessible, not very accurate

While the alphabet and list of contracted words are well enough in this app, the punctuation section is full of errors and incomplete. You can get all of this information for free and much more accurately by Googling "UEB braille chart" or "UEB braille cheat sheet". This app also is not formatted well for screen reader use, which would be funny if not for the people who would need it most being screen reader users.

Handy and filled with potential

This app has so much potential and is so handy. Looking forward to the next update. Would love to see computer Braille added as a category. This seems to be necessary for entering passwords using a refreshable braille display. I would pay for this app if it also had Braille commands for Braille Display Instructor Hknc to the second out that did this. Thanks so much for this handy guide!

Doesn’t work with large fonts

At some point in the last year this app stopped working with large font enabled on my phone. Are used to work brilliantly but now it’s pretty well useless. The display cuts off the dots in positions one and four. This is a deal killer for people who are visually impaired and trying to learn braille. Hopefully this will get fixed in and update; however, the last update was over a year ago.

voiceover reads punctuation and numbers incorrectly

when using this app with voiceover, punctuation and numbers are read incorrectly so the voiceover user is left confused.. every letter is read incorrectly by voiceover, and most of the punctuation is also. This needs to be fixed.

Where is the @ symbol?

With voiceover on and all symbols and their boards punctuation seem wrong
