Apple Beta Releases

Hi, guys! I'm wondering if are there any issues with IOS, Ipad-OS related to braille displays or braille on these platforms? If so, I'd like to know. I'd like to know in advance before updating to Ipad-OS 16. Because I use a braille display 100% of the time as a part of my daily driver/set-up. Sometimes using Braille exclusively, spicifically, a Brailliant BI 40X. Thank you in advance!

Apple has said that iPadOS 16 won't be released until October, most likely at the same time as iOS 16.1. As the x.1 releases typically fix many of the VoiceOver and braille bugs introduced in the x.0 release, anything said now about the stability of iPadOS 16 will hopefully be quite different to how things are when it's released.

All of that to say that you might want to ask again in a month's time ☺️
