Hey there. Nope, go to the braille terminal on your apex, make sure the port is set to bluetooth. Hit enter if it is, if not, change it. Then go to your phone, go to settings/general/accessibility/voiceover/braille. It'll search for your apex, and when it finds it, it'll display it. Double tap it, enter the pairing code (0000) (be quick at it, you only have like 10 seconds or so) and double tap the pair button in the top right corner of the screen. You should hear an auditory cue, and the braille should pop up. Hth! Best, Josh
