Well, I am using 6 dot braille. However, when trying to enter a password for my bank via Safari or my password in the app store and any other protected field it speaks nothing as I am typing and when I exit the braille keyboard and press the appropriate button I get a password error from the service I am using.
I have also checked the field and there appears to be nothing in it before clicking the OK or submit or whatever button. I think I am going to report this to accessibility and see what they have to say about it. thanks.

I use braille input all the time to enter my iTunes password, my passcode, and passwords when logging into services inside apps (such as Dropbox). You need to switch it to six dot braille (3-finger swipe right), at least I've found that works best for me. Plus, at least when entering your password for the app Store, you can just do a two-finger swipe right (the enter gesture) to submit and you're done.

The ability to reset the keyboard by hitting the underscore, then l characters allows you to position the keyboard where you want it to some degree.

I can't even use the feature. My device won't stay still long enough for me to even try to use it. It's even more difficult because the device will not let you lock the position of the buttons.

There is still a lot of room for error with native Braille input because of the variable placement of the fingers when typing. Having said that, I can enter my passcode to unlock, but this text is not part of a web page or app. HtH, Teresa "We can see with the eyes, but we see with the brain as well, and seeing with the brain is often called imagination."--Oliver Sacks On Nov 3, 2014, at 3:09 PM, 'Candy Lowe' via VIPhone <viphone@googlegroups.com> wrote: Dan, I have had the same experience.

Now I am finding that it doesn't seem to work in password or protected fields. It seems as though it just isn't entering any characters in the field at all. Is there a way to make it work? thanks.
