I didn't notice this to be fixed and in fact think I saw that very bug a couple 
of days ago.

However, I'll do a specific test and make sure.

  Hi, Johnathon,


  Actually, I’d like to correct you on one thing. If you recall, there’s a bug 
in iOS 8 where if you’re correcting a spelling mistake you made, and you insert 
a letter that’s also a contraction, the letter would get expanded into said 
contraction. That’s been fixed, as far as I could tell.

    There is no change of any significance to the  defects in Braille with iOS 
9.
    I can only conclude Apple has no one working there who understands how 
Braille users work with their devices.

        I'll just say that IOS will have specific settings for those who use 
braille displays.

          Hi all,

          I know you can't really disclose Apple's plans, as it were, for IOS9, 
but I wonder if any of you testers can assure me you use the Braille facilities 
and are looking to iron out some of the abysmal drawbacks of using a Braille 
display at present.  The time lag of the display is one of the things I am 
passionate about and another is the way in which the cursor appears to be 
unable to follow the Braille very accurately and I am not always sure exactly 
where I am placed.  I shouldn't have to pick up my phone to check this out.

          On a general issue and not just looking at what's to come, I'd also 
be interested in any settings you have that make the lagging less for you, 
together with which display you're using.  Perhaps everyone has "given up" with 
Braille input in this way now.  We shouldn't have to, though, and of course, 
deaf-blind friends still need this, even if we can perhaps manage in other ways.

          If Jonathan Moson is reading this, Jonathan, has Apple stopped 
listening to your comments on using Braille displays?  What exactly do you 
think needs to be done to make working with Braille displays a real pleasure 
and enhance life once again?
