I would love to have been able to give those sources credit but suffice it to say, I am grateful to have received this information. Make sure you read all the way to the tables at the bottom. Mauricio Navigating using the Apple Bluetooth keyboard Keys on the bottom row of the Apple Bluetooth keyboard going from left to right are: The first key on the left side on the Apple keyboard is the FN key. This key is not used for the iPhone. To the right of the FN key is Control key. To the right of the Control key is the Option key. To the right of Option is the Command key. To the right of Command is the Space Bar. To the right of the Space Bar is another Command key. To the right of the Command key is the Option key. To the right of the Option key are the Arrow keys. The alphabet and the numbers are laid out the same as on a PC keyboard. When you want to move around the screen using the Bluetooth keyboard, you can either hold down the Control and Option keys and use the Left and Right Arrow keys or turn on Quick Nav and use the Left and Right Arrow keys by themselves. Unless you are editing something, it is recommended that Quick Nav be turned on. To turn on Quick Nav, hit the Left and Right Arrow keys at the same time. VoiceOver should say “Quick Nav on.” Unless specifically specified, these instructions will be for navigating the iPhone with Quick Nav turned on. To move across the screen, use the Left or Right Arrow keys to move around the screen. To double-tap on something, hit the Up and Down Arrow keys at the same time. If you are on the Home screen, you can Hold down the Option key and tap Left or Right Arrow keys to move through the different pages of apps. You can Hold down the Option key and tap the Up and Down Arrow keys to scroll up or down a page. If you are reading a document such as a note or a web page, you will want to be able to move around different parts of the document. You can do this using the rotor. To do this, first tap the Left and Up Arrow keys at the same time until you hear how much you want to navigate by. Then you use the Up or Down Arrow keys to move by that amount. For example, if you are reading a web page, you might want to move around the page by heading. For an example, we will open Apple’s web site. Do the following if you have not made any changes to Safari: 1. Double-tap on Safari. Safari is the app for browsing the web on the iPhone. If you have not used Safari before, Apple’s web site will open. 2. Keep hitting both the Left Arrow and Up Arrow at the same time until you hear “headings.” 3. Hit the Up and Down Arrow keys to move through the different headings on the page. 4. Hit Left or Right Arrow to read the information under the heading. You can edit information with the Apple Bluetooth keyboard. To do this, first turn off Quick Nav by hitting the Left and Right Arrow keys at the same time until VoiceOver says “Quick Nav off.” Then you would hold down the Control and Option keys and tap the Left or Right Arrow keys to navigate around the screen. When you find something you want to open or edit, you hold down the Control and Option keys and hit the Space Bar. Then you would type in the information. If there is more than one edit box, you could hit Tab or Shift+Tab to move through the different edit boxes. For an example, we will add a contact with the Apple keyboard. Do the following: 1. Open the Phone app. 2. Open the Contacts tab. 3. Double-tap or hit Control+Option+Space Bar when you are on Add. 4. Double-tap or hit Control+Option+Space Bar when you are on “first.” Type somebody’s first name. 5. Hit Tab to go through all of the edit boxes. 6. When you are done activate “Done” by double-tapping on “Done” or hitting Control+Option+Space Bar when you are on it. 7. It is recommended that Quick Nav be turned back on. 8. Hit the Home button or hit Control+Option+h on the keyboard to get back to the Home screen. The below is from a different source: Before going into the various keyboard commands, there are a few things that need mentioning. First, for Windows users, there are a couple noteworthy differences between a traditional PC keyboard and an Apple keyboard. Instead of the control, Windows, and alt modifiers, Apple devices use control, command, and option. Control maps to control, Windos maps to option, and alt maps to command. Second, in the list of keyboard commands below, you will see references to a “VO” modifier. In the world of Apple, the “VO” (or VoiceOver) key is control + option. That is, if the keystroke says, for example, “VO + down arrow”, you perform this keystroke by holding down control and option, then pressing the down arrow. Third, when listing keys, what is being used is both a + (plus) and * (asterisk) connectors. A + indicates which modifiers (such as control, command, or option) are to be used. The * indicates the keys which are to be pressed simultaneously. For example, “left arrow * right arrow” means you press the left and right arrow keys at the exact same time. Fourth, if you find some of the keys with multiple modifiers do not seem to work with your Bluetooth keyboard, try using the other modifier. For example, my Bluetooth keyboard has control, command, and option keys to the left of the spacebar, but it also has an option key to the right of the spacebar. When performing any commands that require holding down all three modifiers, such as to increase the VoiceOver volume (VO + command + up arrow), I have to use the right option key; if I use the left option key, the command does not work. This is no doubt a limitation of my keyboard, not the iOS version being used. Fifth, most of the text navigation commands that make use of the command key can also be performed by substituting the control key for the command key This is especially useful for some Windows-based Bluetooth keyboards. Sixth, iOS has something called quick nav. Quick nav, when turned on, allows for easier navigation between elements using the keyboard. To turn quick nav on and off, you hit the left and right arrows simultaneously. Seventh, the following 57 keyboard commands have been broken down into four categories: general navigation, VoiceOver controls, text navigation, and Unix-style text navigation. For each action, listed is the corresponding keystroke when quick nav is on and when quick nav is off. Some commands can only be performed with quick nav either on or off, so the corresponding entry in the table states N/A if the command does not apply. Also listed are the corresponding VoiceOver screen gesture (where applicable) for reference and ease of transition. And now for the commands… General Navigation table with 4 columns and 23 rows Action Keystroke (quick nav on) Keystroke (quick nav off) Equivalent Gesture Toggle quick nav left arrow * right arrow left arrow * right arrow N/A Previous element left arrow VO + left arrow flick left Next element right arrow VO + right arrow flick right Previous element by roter up arrow VO + up arrow flick up Next element by roter down arrow VO + down arrow flick down Previous roter setting up arrow * left arrow N/A rotate counterclockwise Next roter setting up arrow * right arrow N/A rotate clockwise Activate selected element up arrow * down arrow VO + spacebar double tap Previous text field shift + tab shift + tab N/A Next text field tab tab N/A Read page from selected item VO + a VO + a 2 finger flick down Read page from top VO + b VO + b 2 finger flick up Move to first element control + up arrow N/A 4 finger tap near top of screen Move to last element control + down arrow N/A 4 finger tap near bottom of screen Scroll up 1 page option + up arrow N/A 3 finger flick down Scroll down 1 page option + down arrow N/A 3 finger flick up Scroll left 1 page option + left arrow N/A 3 finger flick right Scroll right 1 page option + right arrow N/A 3 finger flick left Move to status bar VO + m VO + m N/A Activate back button escape escape 2 finger scrub Activate home button VO + h VO + h N/A Start/stop current action VO + - VO + - 2 finger double tap table end VoiceOver Controls table with 4 columns and 10 rows Action Keystroke (quick nav on) Keystroke (quick nav off) Equivalent Gesture Previous VO setting VO + command + left arrow VO + command + left arrow N/A Next VO setting VO + command + right arrow VO + command + right arrow N/A Increment selected VO setting VO + command + up arrow VO + command + up arrow N/A Decrement selected VO setting VO + command + down arrow VO + command + down arrow N/A Pause/resume speech control control 2 finger single tap Toggle speech VO + s VO + s 3 finger double tap Toggle screen curtain VO + shift + s VO + shift + s 3 finger triple tap VoiceOver help VO + k VO + k N/A Exit VoiceOver help escape escape N/A table end Text Navigation table with 4 columns and 20 rows Action Keystroke (quick nav on) Keystroke (quick nav off) Equivalent Gesture Previous character N/A left arrow N/A Next character N/A right arrow N/A Previous word N/A option + left arrow N/A Next word N/A option + right arrow N/A Previous line N/A up arrow N/A Next line N/A down arrow N/A Start of line N/A command + left arrow N/A End of line N/A command + right arrow N/A Top of document N/A command + up arrow N/A End of document N/A command + down arrow N/A Select text N/A shift + navigation keystroke N/A Select all N/A command + a N/A Cut N/A command + x N/A Copy N/A command + c N/A Paste N/A command + v N/A Undo N/A command + z N/A Redo N/A shift + command + z N/A Previous int. keyboard N/A shift + command + spacebar N/A Next int. keyboard N/A command + spacebar N/A table end Unix-Style Text Navigation table with 4 columns and 8 rows Action Keystroke (quick nav on) Keystroke (quick nav off) Equivalent Gesture Previous character N/A control + b N/A Next character N/A control + f N/A Start of line N/A control + a N/A End of line N/A control + e N/A Backspace N/A control + h N/A Delete to end of line N/A control + k N/A Return (new line) N/A control + m N/A table end -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Alex Stone Sent: Saturday, December 13, 2014 12:43 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Bluetooth keyboard commands I need a link to, or a list of commands for using an iPhone with a bt keyboard.

Has anyone been able to use braille input for passwords? All the best, Brian Alex Hall <[email protected]>: Dec 14 01:24PM -0500 You can. The problem is that Safari can't accept braille input in text fields, it thinks every character is an attempt to jump to an element. The feature is that you can type a braille h for headings, then flick up and down to move by heading. The bug is that this mode can't be disabled to let you actually type that h, or any other character, into a text field. Braille input works in apps or on the passcode screen, but Safari needs to be updated before braille will work there. -- Have a great day, Alex Hall [email protected] Christopher Hallsworth <[email protected]>: Dec 14 06:25PM Hi all, It's a conflict with Safari and Braille Input. It can only be used for navigation. Please report this to Apple Accessibility. I have done this already and still no fix. Remember though bugs seem to be ordered in terms of highest priority first which isn't necessarily to do with accessibility.

I can't seem to use the arrow keys on mine, so can't test it myself. This navigation by Braille letter feature sounds like a QuickNav feature.

While it hasn't been updated in a long time, GigDaddy $2.99 has a good drum machine, but is also a multi-track recorder. It still works with iOS 8 though it hasn't been updated since 2011. If you search for "free drum machine" there are tons of free apps you could try out that would probably be less complex than GigDaddy. Good luck, Richard Reality is the leading cause of stress for those who are in touch with it.
