Hello all, how do you change to grade one on the ios braille keyboard? This is the first note on the on screen keyboard for me. reggie and Allegra On Sep 26, 2014, at 2:55 PM, Deb Lewis <deblewi...@gmail.com> wrote: Well I definitely think all the explanations are good. But it doesn't matter. I can get the dots going the right way in explore mode but when I actually enter something, it simply isn't useable. It often says I've got four fingers down when someone tells me visually that I have only three which is the intent. And I'll get dot six for the upper case but instead of the upper case I it always enters 9 for example. Practicing several hours I've made about three readable words. definitely not bothering to do this for my unlock code, LOL. So I'm moving on to better ways of using my time and hoping it's better at some future time. > On 9/26/14, Teresa Cochran <batsfly...@me.com> wrote: > I can now enter my passcode in both modes, though my overall accuracy > is better in screen-away mode.
