Suzie, several things here: 1. In iOS 13.1, go to Settings > Display Brightness to check your setting for Autolock. If you set it to Never. your phone will lock only if you push the side button to lock it yourself.I see no reason to have Apple lock it for me.
2. Go to Settings > Touch ID Passcode. If you have an iPhone 8 or older and have not done so, set up Touch ID. Then you can specify the things to use Touch ID for and one is Unlock Phone. If you have a newer phone with Face ID I cannot help. 3. I know what an excellent user of Braille you are. Have you worked at all with Braille Screen Input? I love it!! Many of us, including yours truly, have absolutely not masterred typing on that. Screen. If you want some help with BSI, I’ll call you and we can catch up. Your Old Friend If these things do not help, call Apple Accessibility and don’t be dissuaded by the message that says to call them only when specifically working with VoiceOver. They know that everything is affected by VoiceOver! Second, e? Sent from my iPhone > On Sep 26, 2019, at 2:07 AM, Brian K.
