Hi,

Automatic braille translation doesn’t conflict with BARD if you switch braille 
input to 8-dot while you’re using the app. This is a good idea anyway, since 
then each letter you type is seen as a letter rather than a word. The only 
problem is that Quick Nav is on by default, and in iOS 8.2, you need a 
Bluetooth keyboard to turn off Quick Nav.

HTH,
Anna
