Re: Braille display with pages
When I got my iPad Air there was something there about here are some free Apple apps to get you started. So I downloaded the lot. Now you know what I know.

Yes, that's because new devices purchased after, I believe, September or October 2013, are entitled to the iWork apps at no cost. For everyone else, they are not free.
