"Braille Screen Input"

Hello,
I’ll try composing my thoughts here from my Mac. Because MBraille is a
third party keyboard, I believe for security purposes Apple will not
allow 3rd party keyboards enter text into a password edit field. When
one adds a third party keyboard in settings under general and
keyboards, it asks one to give keyboard access to your data. I don’t
know about you, but I don’t think I would want third party keyboards
having access to my passwords. With all kinds of hacking these days, I
need to have some control over my security. Others responding to this
thread can correct me if I am wrong. As a matter-of-fact, I did use
MBraille when signing into Paypal’s app with my user name, but when I
jumped to the password edit field, the English native keyboard was
presented. On another note, there are times when I am in an app’s edit
field, and access MBraille as my third party keyboard, the text
brailed is not inputted and it’s not a password edit field. I have
tried all different ways to input the text, but the app itself must
not support any third party keyboard input. HTH.
Cheers,
Eileen

That's a very interesting discovery. And I wonder why? (it's not a
3rd-party keyboard)

Thanks for the help, everyone, I figured out the problem. I
regularly type my passwords using braille screen input, since it's
way faster with mixed case and numbers. It looks like the Paypal app
won't un-dim the Log In button until the actual, on-screen keyboard
is used, instead of when text is typed via any source. As soon as I
entered my password using the on-screen keyboard, everything worked
as expected. Lesson learned: BSI is great, but not every app fully
supports it.

Hi Alex,
Sorry you're having so much trouble signing in. I just signed into
the app, but I am using an iPhone 6 on 8.3. I followed the
instructions that Wren gave and had no problems signing in and
activating my finger touch ID. Do you think it's worth a try in
deleting the app and reinstalling it?. Just a thought.
Best,
Eileen

Thing is, I see nothing on the screen except the dimmed login
button, the two text fields, a Help button, and a toggle to show
or hide my password. I expected there to be more to it, but that's
all I can find. Very odd. Sadly, too, my phone lacks TouchID.

Hi Alex and all, there should be an account button on your app if
you press that you will be taken to the login. This is how it
worked for me anyway. You can also set up PayPal to use touch ID
to login. If you need more help please let me know and I will go
in the app and figure it out again. God bless, Wren Langley PS I
think that when you press this account button you will be given
the options for setting up the touch ID.

Hello list,
I'm trying to use the Paypal app for the first time in a long
time. I see my name and email address, and a field for a
password. I type the password--which I just updated, so I know
it's right--and that's all I can do. The enter key on the
keyboard does nothing, and the Log In button remains "dimmed",
no matter what I do. I've tapped it anyway, I've tried to scroll
to see if an error message appeared somewhere off-screen, I've
tried the button with the keyboard visible *and* hidden… I'm not
sure what the problem could be. Does anyone have any ideas? Is
this a VoiceOver problem; that is, would a sighted person be
able to hit the button and log me in? Thanks for any help.
