I am not quite sure where your problem lies either but am trying things out here since I'm now puzzled about your settings also as I'm using a 6 s with the Dird Party keyboard enabled and all options have "Yes" I'm not giving up though and will remember to come back to you if I think I may have found you a solution. I agree, it's the best way to braille, when things are working properly, with the most options available. I'm not giving up though and will remember to come back to you if I think I may have found you a solution! Carol P Sent from my iPhone using MBraille
