Re: Reading Braille Books With Bookshare on iOS Devices
Hi, Yes, that's where the setting is that lets you read by section instead of by page.

Scott, I seem to remember that there was something in the visual settings that needed to be changed but can't remember what that might be. Do you have any idea?

Re: Reading Braille Books With Bookshare on iOS Devices
Hi Stacey. Go in to a book and then select the navigation option.Under the navigation heading, you should see that section is selected If not, double tap/use space with 3-6 to do this.

Re: Reading Braille Books With Bookshare on iOS Devices
Hi Anna, If things haven't improved as far as reading Braille is concerned, I probably won't purchase Voice Dream Reader just yet, but if there are other people on list who are using it to read Braille, maybe they can tell us if the Braille reading experience has gotten any better. Thanks so much for sharing your experience!

Re: Reading Braille Books With Bookshare on iOS Devices
Hi, I tried reading with a braille display and Voice Dream Reader a couple of months ago, and it didn't work well. When I got to the end of the text on a screen, I could back up a line and use the Next Screen command the way I do in iBooks, but the last two or so lines from the previous page would appear at the top, so there was repetition every time I switched screens, and each screen was short, so it was bad for reading braille. It's nice for reading with synthesized speech, though, and it's possible that reading with braille has improved since; there have been at least a couple of updates since then.

Hi Anna, Thank you so much! Have you had any experience using Voice Dream Reader? If so, do you like one over the other, and what differences have you found?

Re: Reading Braille Books With Bookshare on iOS Devices
Hi, I routinely read with my braille display using Read2Go. As long as I set it to read by section, I only have to change sections between chapters; within a chapter, the reading is continuous. You search for and download books within the app. It downloads the DAISY version, so you have access to any navigation built into the book, but the text is displayed in Grade 2, just as other text on the iPHone is. Occasionally a book is marked up oddly, so that each chapter title is considered its own section, so you have to move to the next section to read the title and do that again to start reading the chapter, but most of the time, it works fine.

You just can't get rid of me. (smiles). When you download books from Bookshare using the Read2Go app, you can read with either the text to speech or your braille display.
