I'm not sure that having   automatic braille translation on or off would solve 
my issue. What the issue is, is when I'm in the now reading tab and have a 
braille file loaded, and I press r  to get to the reading window, it actually 
enters an r, as if it's in a document. And it used to not  do that, it used to 
go directly to the reading window. Therefore, I can never get back to the place 
that I was at, because I have to actually dot 4-chord to the Reading window, 
thereby having to start all the way at the beginning. This is the same for and, 
next, and P, previous buttons. It enters the actual letters, and I don't know 
how to fix that, unless an update to the Bard mobile app is in order.
