Using a braille display with VoiceOver
You can use a refreshable Bluetooth braille display to read VoiceOver output in braille, and you
can use a braille display with input keys and other controls to control iPod touch when VoiceOver
is turned on. iPod touch works with many wireless braille displays. For a list of supported displays,
go to www.apple.com/accessibility/iphone/braille-display.html.
Set up a braille display: Turn on the display, then go to Settings > General > Bluetooth and
turn on Bluetooth. Then go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Braille and choose
the display.
Turn contracted braille on or o Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Braille.
Turn eight-dot braille on or o Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Braille.
For information about common braille commands for VoiceOver navigation and information
specic to certain displays, go to support.apple.com/kb/HT4400.
The braille display uses the language that’s set for Voice Control.This is normally the language set
for iPod touch in Settings > International > Language. You can use the VoiceOver language setting
to set a dierent language for VoiceOver and braille displays.
Set the language for VoiceOver: Go to Settings > General > International > Voice Control, then
choose the language.
If you change the language for iPod touch, you may need to reset the language for VoiceOver and
your braille display.
