Hi,

The default braille display command to mute speech is Space with M.

Best,
Anna

RE: iOS kindle app and braille display

[M. Taylor]

Hello Holly,

I believe what you are experiencing is somewhat unique to the 20-cell displays. 
 

A list member, I believe her name is Melissa, had the same problem and was able 
to resolve it but I cannot remember her solution as she did not post it 
on-list.  

Perhaps you should download a free iBook title and see how it works with your 
display.  It may also be useful to attempt reading several Kindle titles to see 
if all have this same problem or only one particular title.

The point is that you must narrow down the scenario in which this glitch occurs.

It may also be useful to contact your Braille display manufacturer.  

Have you attempted to use different encoding?  For example, try switching to 
computer Braille or UEB and see what happens.  

Try un-paring, and then re-pairing the display to your iOS device after a iOS 
reboot.

It may be useful to check the general font and display settings on your iOS 
device, outside of the Kindle app, as well.  Some low vision users increase 
font size, turn bold display on, disable the standard screen resolution, etc.  
You must be certain that all of these settings are set to their default 
parameters.

At present, I cannot reproduce your issues, when I have VoiceOver speech muted, 
when using my Focus 40 Blue.

Mark

Re: iOS kindle app and braille display

[Michael Feir]

I've always muted the speech while reading a book in Braille. I never
thought of trying it with speech because it just seemed... well... wrong I
guess. It was one of those decisions I never gave conscious thought to
until just now when you asked..

RE: iOS kindle app and braille display

[M. Taylor]

Hello Mike,

Are you using Kindle and your Braille display with VoiceOver unmuted?  

Just curious.

Hey Holly. I'm not having any issues with Kindle and my Focus40. However, one 
thought did occur to me. There's a setting in the VoiceOver Braille setting 
where you can indicate whether panning will automatically advance to the next 
page or not. I have it set to on but if you turned it off, perhaps that would 
help. Of course, you should be certain you ahve the latest iOS and version of 
the Kindle app installed. Another thing to look at is the font setting. I have 
it set to the Bookerly font and have it as small as possible. Hope that helps.

RE: iOS kindle app and braille display

[M. Taylor]

Hello Holly,

I'm using a Focus 40 Blue but have noticed that, as of the latest release, one 
must mute VoiceOver speech for best Braille display results in the Kindle app.  
Generally speaking, I use the M-Chord key-combo directly from my Braille 
display to mute and unmute VoiceOver speech.  

Also, in some cases, adjusting the font size of the text, from within the 
Kindle app, has been known to resolve panning issues for some 20-cell displays, 
in the past.

Good Luck and let us know what works for you, okay?

Mark

Re: iOS kindle app and braille display

[Angie Nutt]

Yes,

Had this problem with a Esys 12 but then it got fixed though I’m not sure 
whether it was an update to Kindle or iOS.   Haven’t used Kindle for a while 
though so don’t know the state of play as of now but am aware others are having 
similar problems.

All the best
