Here is some extremely important information for anyone who uses any Braille 
display with their iDevice running IOS 14.4. I know this only talks about the 
APH products but it is true for all Braille displays.

Dear Requestors,

 

The AT&AEM Center would like to share with you this update from APH regarding 
the Mantis Q40 and Chameleon 20...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"We have identified connection issues for the Mantis Q40 and Chameleon 20 after 
upgrading to iOS 14.4. We recommend that you turn off automatic updates, and do 
not upgrade to 14.4. This is a regression introduced by Apple in this release. 
We alerted them to this issue during 14.4 beta testing, and we hope they will 
correct it in a possible 14.4.1 release. Stay tuned to your inbox for further 
updates.

 

Once upgraded to iOS 14.4, and as soon as users lock their iPad or iPhone with 
the Mantis or Chameleon connected, the braille display will not automatically 
reconnect once the device wakes back up. You can force it to reconnect by 
leaving the terminal and reconnecting from there, but then you won’t get 
braille. The only way to get braille back is to toggle Bluetooth on the iOS 
device, but the issue will happen again as soon as you lock your device or it 
goes to sleep.

 

To stop an iOS device from auto updating, do the following:

 

* Open the Settings app

* Activate the General option

* Activate the Software Update option

* Activate the Automatic Updates option

* Turn off both, “download iOS updates,” and “Install iOS updates.”

 

If you’ve already updated to iOS 14.4, please refer to this link for 
instructions on how to downgrade your iOS device:

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the APH Customer 
Experience Team at   c...@aph.org   
or 800-223-1839. Mantis and Chameleon users can also subscribe to the community 
user email group for more updates at

I can confirm that it is true for the APH products and that for several others 
it is not true.
