I'm just finding that even though I don't have big hands/fingers, I'm really
having to squish the heck out of my fingers to get things to register correctly.
For instance, I tried typing the word Hello. it's almost like some of the
time, dot 3 wouldn't register, sometimes dot 1 wouldn't register. Same goes
with 4 and 6, It's like my fingers are too far spread apart. The only way I
can seem to get it to work is to practically web my fingers like a duck's foot.
I almost literally have to touch my finters to one another. Frankly, this is
totally unacceptable.
Braille input may just not be for me. Oh well, at least I tried. I'll give it
another go if you all have an idea, but otherwise, this ain't workin'. LOL!
Chris.

Subject: Re: Incredibly irritating problem with braille input on I O S
Hello,
When you turn the iPhone away from you, have the home button to the right. VO
will announce home button to the left. This is correct, but the home button
actually is on the right. Now, Away mode is correct. Dots 1 2 and 3 are on the
left side, dots 4 5 6 are on the right side. Note: this message was written
with braille screen input in away mode.

I'm not using a braille display or input keyboard. This is specifically on
the braille input rotor setting, which I'm referring to.
When I reach an edit field, and I turn the rotor to braille input, I am
using contracted braille, not 6 dot, by the way. I'm noticing that it's
reversed, when in screen away mode from how things would be on a standard
braille note taker or Perkins. You know how normally your left hand does dots
1 2 and 3, and your right hand does 4 5 and 6? Well, it has things aligned now
oppisit. So on my left hand, I have 4 5 and 6, then my right hand has 1 2 and
3. so horizontally, each row normally on a perkins would go:
1 4
2 5
3 6.
In the case of my IPhone 6S, it's going:
4 1
5 2
6 3.
This means I have to turn everything I type backwards.
No? thank you! Is there a way to fix this?
Chris.
