Hi Gordon, The first thing that you need to work with is the Apex. Make sure that blue tooth is turned on. This is found in options—conductivity—blue tooth. Next, go back to the main menu and press t to bring up the braille terminal and that blue tooth is selected.
On the phone iide, open up the settings menu. Go to general and then open accessibility and then voiceover. In the middle of these options, you will find braille. The apex will be listed. Tap on it. The pairing code is #jjjj. I also turn the typing option to touch typing to get the code in quickly. The pairing button is located in the upper right corner just under the battery status. I just needed to pair my own Apex because I haven't used it in a while with the phone. It took me about 5 tries to get it paired, but that is what I am using to send this response back to you. HTH.
