Hi Todd, What Chris means by "custom action" is simply a reference to the new way of moving/arranging apps in iOS 10 which you do by flicking up or down when you are on the home screen with focus on whichever app you want to move or delete. I'm not sure if your braille display shows this, but if you touch an app or swipe to an app and wait for just a moment Voiceover says "Actions available". This is a reminder that you have actions available if you swipe up or down. As I explained before, the options are "Activate" which is the default and which simply opens the app or "Arrange Apps" which when activated with a double tap or, in your case, Chord 36. Once you press Chord 36 where it says "Arrange Apps" you then have to do whatever your equivalent braille display command is for a swipe up or down (it doesn't matter which as there are only 2 options) and then when you are on "Actions" you do another Chord 36 and this should bring up the delete prompt/confirmation. The other option is "Move" which if you activate it will allow you to go elsewhere on the screen and then swipe up or down where you find options which allow you to bring the original app to that point and you can insert it either before or after the app you are now on or create a folder with the two apps. For example, you may have your Settings app in the third row and in the second position from the left. Now you want to move it to the first row and put it in the very left position where, let's say, you currently have the Contacts app. You would first go to the Settings app, select the "Arrange Apps" option and activate it, then you would activate the Move option. Now you would go all the way to the top on your Contacts app, swipe down (or equivalent command) until you get to the option "Place Settings before Contacts", then double tap or press Chord 36 and Settings gets moved from row 3 to row 1 at the very left, Contacts slides over to row 1 second from the left and, of course, all other apps also slide one to the right which means whichever app was at the very right of each row is now on the very left in the row below.

I asked you where you got the "custom" thing! I understand about double tap = chord 36, but what about dot and key command??? Be more specific. Thank you.
