Hello. The Edge and the Braille sense have different function keys which also perform different functions when connected to an iDevice. On the edge, the 4 rectangular buttons to the right of the space bar will allow you to navigate pages. Use space with K to learn which one does which, and space with b to exit the help system in iOS. The function keys on the braille sense products do not scroll pages, you would need to use the braille keyboard commands. I'm not quite sure which does which in the Focus, though I'm sure the manual has that info.
