Hello,
I too cannot get BSI to start with the simultaneous double taps on the
corners or center of a landscape. I’m using Iphone 14.
The problem might be that when I do a double tap a radio starts. Ever
since I asked SIRI to play a radio station, it can be started and
stopped with the double tap.
On the lock screen there are buttons for the play/pause and track
buttons. Maybe this is for playing music (something I haven't tried yet).
How do I stop this playing of a radio with the double tap?
Then maybe I can get BSI to start.
As far as calibrating I don’t know what is typing or command mode.
After placing the left then right fingers on the screen, I have never
heard:
If done correctly, you will hear, dot positions callibrated.

To turn on Braille Screen Input, you basically need to double tap a
left hand corner and a right hand corner while in landscape mode.
These double taps need to be done together at the same time.
It does not matter whether you use both top corners, both bottom
corners, or one of each. I personally put my left hand finger at the
top left corner, and my right hand finger at the bottom corner.
If it does not work sometimes for you, maybe you are not always
putting your fingers far enough in the corners.
As far as callibrating the dots.
You first put your right hand down, lift it and quickly put your left
hand down and lift it.
You can do this while in typing mode or command mode.
If done correctly, you will hear, dot positions callibrated. You can
callibrate the dots as much as you need.
I found that I was putting my hands to far to the top and that made my
typing not as accurate. So I just lowered my hands a little toward
the bottom of the screen and my typing got accurate again.
Hope this helps.

Hello,
I have the basics to get BSI started and stopped but it’s hit and
miss. Can you clarify the correct gestures to start and configure the
fingers.
**Start
Using the roter is hit and miss and sometimes it’s is changed to
unselected.
The other way to engage BSI is with finger taps.
How exactly should the 1 finger double tap be done?
Should the Iphone be in portrait and facing me?
Should the taps be in the center or the diagonally opposite corners
of the screen?
Should this tap be simultaneous or one after the other?
***Configuring the 6 fingers
When BSI starts, the Iphone is in landscape and screen away.
The Iphone back corners are braced with my thumbs and pinkies and
part of the palms.
The right and left 3 center fingers are curled so that the tips will
tap the right and left edges.
Should the 3 fingers touch each other or be apart?
I start with the right fingers for dots 4, 5 and 6.
Should they be tapped simultaneously or one after the other?
Should they be held down or lifted before repeating fingers for 1, 2
and 3?
With screen away I can lock the layout with a 3 finger swipe down.
I’m trying different methods and getting mixed results.
Writing the alphabet from “a” gets me to “g” most of the time.
I don’t hear any letters using dot 3 like k, l, m, etc.
What is the correct gesture for starting and configuring?

Hello Gezim,
I am replying using Braille Screen Input. It working like always
for me.
I engage it by double tapping with one finger at the top and one at
the bottom of the screen.
Also on 18.1 but on the 16 pro, but that shouldn't matter.

Hi all,
Yesterday I updated my iPhone to iOS 18.1, and I noticed that
Braille screen input is no longer functioning.
I am using iPhone 12 Pro Max.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Gezim
