Bump Bump Braille Learn 4+

Good app but, no contractions or punctuation.

I've taken braille in the past and I wanted to refresh my knowledge as my eyes are getting worse and I wanted to take advantage of what sight I have left and use a free mobile app to do so. This app was great for low vision learning and was pretty straight forward. My complaints that make this a 3 star app and not a 5 star app are as follows. First, there is no grade 2 level stuff in this app and if there is , it is not voiceover compatible. If you have no braille experience, that is where you learn about punctuation and the contractions. There are symbols that represent more than one character at a time. Example, the word "the" has it's own symbol, and you are supposed to use that symbol while spelling words that contain those letters. Words like "they" "there" or "these". Second, I don't see any way to learn how to type on a braille keyboard. I wish there was a simulated braille keyboard like on a braille typewriter to practice typing with. When I first learned braille years ago, the typing portion of the lesson is what made everything stick in my brain, that is, actually typing the symbols out. If you are just a little curious about braille and just want to learn the basics of how a braille cell is made up, and the numbers and letters in a straight forward way, and just gain some general understanding of braille, rather than fluently read braille, this app is probably the one for you.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your suggestions and great review. I am working on adding punctuation and contractions.

Not working.

When is recently did the update it took the feature away that tells you how many dots there are for that letter in the alphabet sheet. All I hear is the letter, it's a voiceover bug of some sort.

Thanks for your review and feedback. I will fix this bug ASAP

Great app

This is a great app to refresh your Braille skills I do wish there was grade 2 Braille and the old huggers And Of For The With in this I think that would be really neat to see because I am starting to learnt grade 2 and the old huggers is a great tool to use as well and being able to add all these into a quiz would be really neat to see .. I also do wish you can add Memeth Braille into this . Besides all of that I really love this app and I hope you can make the changes I listed
