Subject: [MBraille-Test] Re: Bugs reported by users

Hi,

FYI,  I got the following detailed report.

Here is the detailed list of our findings:

1. Continuous Dot Calibration Issue: After performing the initial dot calibration, the app constantly asks to input the dots (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) almost every time a new action is performed. For example, when using a dot command to open a file, before we can even select the file, the app forces us to calibrate the dots again. This significantly slows down the workflow, and unlike in previous versions, there is no option to permanently disable this "learning/exploration" mode.
2. VoiceOver Speech Integration Bugs: When "Use VoiceOver speech" is enabled in the audio settings, the app's internal prompts and questions are not spoken aloud.

• When a dialogue box pops up, VoiceOver remains silent, leaving the user to guess that an option needs to be selected.
• Furthermore, because the app constantly interrupts to ask for dot calibration at these prompts, we cannot use the standard one-finger left/right swipes to navigate between the options.
• For example, when opening a test .txt file, editing it, and trying to close it, VoiceOver does not announce the "Do you want to save?" question; only the visual option appears. Due to the forced dot calibration screen overlay, it is very easy to accidentally save over the file. If we happen to be at the beginning of the file, it overwrites the entire document. For now, we are forced to use the default built-in self-voicing mode to avoid this.

3. Cloud Services Sync: Among the available cloud services, only OneDrive seems to work correctly. Other cloud services fail to authenticate or set up properly.
4. Missing Files App Folder: The dedicated "MBraille" folder has completely disappeared from the native iOS Files app. As a result, we cannot access local MBraille documents via the phone's file manager or when connected to a computer.
5. The ".read" Command Error: Files cannot be opened for reading using the .read command. It fails to execute properly. Currently, files can only be accessed using the .open command (which opens them for both reading and writing).
6. Text Selection / Editing Bug in Line View: When editing a multi-line text and attempting to select the second line, the app incorrectly selects, copies, or cuts the first line instead. This action works perfectly fine in Word/Word-by-word view, but it is broken when navigating and selecting by Line view.

We hope this feedback helps you fine-tune the app and squash these bugs in the next update. Thank you for your hard work and for keeping MBraille alive!
