I have been using this keyboard for years and love it. I use it as my everyday keyboard since I am low vision but can see enough to use my phone. The app just updated tonight, and now it will not show up as a default board on my device. I am wondering if this is a bug in the newest update. I love it so much. I hope it can be fixed soon.

The keyboard design is clean, neat and simple which is what I love about it. No unnecessary features that hinder your typing or annoy you in general LOL. Although I just wish that there's a small indicator whether you're currently using braille input or alphabet input, but other than that it's overall a great app! PS: They also have an app where you can learn braille for free and it really helped me a lot! Kudos to the dev(s) 💗

This app is pretty much just what i needed. Not only nice for inputting braille unicode text (great for encoded messages and ASCII art), but the actual input is great practice for internalising braille symbols. My only real issues are the fact that there are two different spaces for some reason (not a problem, just odd), and I can't find a way to make a paragraph break, since there's no equivalent for the Enter key. Is there a way to do that?

This is the best braille keyboard I've found for typing actual braille cells. I have an issue with how it prints any characters that only use the right side of the cell on the left side. Consequently, the capital indicator and apostrophe are indistinguishable, the abbreviation sign and the letter B, etc. 7 pairs of symbols are indistinguishable from each other. That bothers me. It also adds spacing problems.

This aop is a great tool to practice Braille with. ait is exactly what i was looking for. A feature i would like to have would be to be able to switch between the braille keyboard and standard keyboard more easily. At times i dont want to use the Braille as my input or may want to insert a character i may not remember. or add an Emoji etc....

Great app for typing unicode braille cells & for learning braille symbols. Few suggestions though: please add a ↲ key for line breaks, or at least have the input key make a line break with long tap. Also, please add contractions/shortforms in suggestions when typing, so that by typing "⠞⠓⠑" for example, "⠮" should pop up, or "⠃⠊⠶⠻" for typing "⠃⠊⠛⠛⠑⠗", like how Braille Tutor suggests better translations in the Translation exercises. Would make learning by typing even easier
