Re: Perkinput

I like this concept of doing Braille one-handed. I'm not clear on how to hold 
my fingers if it's going to be across the screen or lengthwise does the home 
key go to the writer left. For instance my C letter comes out-I've tried 
turning the phone different ways but we're having fun in any case. Grim.

 Perkinput is a good first attempt for braille entry. The concept is 
 excellent. I only need to use one hand for the input, and I find it fairly 
 easy to convert braille to each line of the braille cell. With a free price 
 tag (probably because the app is experimental), it becomes quite good.
 
 Currently, the app only receives input in grade I braille. Personally, I 
 would like to see an option for switching to computer braille, but as the 
 fourth finger position is used to indicate a blank column in the braille 
 cell, this would be difficult.
 
 The instructions fail to mention how to backspace, which appears to be two 
 three-finger swipes left or right while the iPhone is in landscape / braille 
 input mode.
 
 The instructions are not clear about returning to the main screen by 
 performing a three-finger swipe in the 90 degrees direction from the double 
 swipe for backspace.
 
 Finally, comma (dot 2) is missing from the current braille input table.
 
 This is a braille keyboard entry app that I will use, especially as I can use 
 it one-handed.

Dear All,

The app appears really promising for it offers single handed entry
which is an important advantage of button phones.  But 2 important
elements:  Grade II Braille and I also did not understand how does a
letter get completed:  E.G.  I pressed dot 1 and then dot 5 but how do
I confirm the same?

Once you enter the dots to configure the letter, VO will announce it
then you simply continue on with the next letter. To enter a space you
tap with the pinkie finger.

 TypeInBraille made that error, too; using a fundamental VO command

 The instructions are not clear about returning to the main screen by
 performing a three-finger swipe in the 90 degrees direction from the
 double swipe for backspace.

 Finally, comma (dot 2) is missing from the current braille input table.

 This is a braille keyboard entry app that I will use, especially as I can

perkinput feedback

2014-04-23 Thread Ioana Gandrabur
Hello


I like the concept of your app although I'll probably stick to a 2 handed inpot 
method. 
i can see how in some instances it could be useful to have one hand free. 

So here are some  first impressions:
I could not easily find a way to send feedback. Would be nice if you added this 
as an option within the app.

It would be good if the app would indicate how to hold the phone in landskape; 
with home button to the left or right. As it is, it took me a few tries to 
realise I have to  turn the phone around 180 degrees. 

Also there's not clear documentation about deleting and editing in the input 
screen. 

Great start and intresting concept. 

Let me know if I can help in any other way.

Best,

Ioana Gandrabur
