Thanks Arnold,

I guess I may just have to cheat the Bard and back translate the books using my 
pc, and saving them in grade1 braille and then reading them on the BARD app on 
my iPhone

 

Regards,

Ibrahim.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to read braille books via VoiceOver.  I wish 
it were.  I wish they would put a translation program into the Bard app, so we 
could read braille books without having to have a braille display, as one can 
do with some of the third-party players, such as the Victor Reader Stream.  
However, they seem to have no plans to enable the Bard app to be able to read 
braille, other than with a braille display.

Subject: Can I read a bard braille book on my iPhone without a braille display?

 

Hello folks,

Is it possible to read a BARD braille book on my iPhone without having a 
braille display?  Does voiceover do back translation of braille?  I know that 
most braille books on BARD are in Grade2 Braille.  If I read the word Published 
it will be read public%$.  However, if voiceover does back translation to Grade 
1 it would be read correctly without the need to have a braille display.  I am 
wondering if this is possible!

Regards,

Cris
