Hi, I will preface this by saying I am a very not technical person. So I finally got around to updating to iOS 16. However, now I am really struggling using my braille display in Apple books. This is a huge issue as I read for hours every day. At the end of each print line or paragraph, I’m not really. Sure, the braille display comes up with the words actions available. I imagine VoiceOver must be coming up with that, and the braille is displaying it. But I am at my wits end because you cannot get into the flow of a good book, or concentrate on something for work or study, when the words actions available repeatedly appear every two or three braille lines. If anyone has had this issue and knows a magic trick, I would be eternally grateful.

Hi Shaquana Flame. This is a…
Hi Shaquana Flame. This is a setting you need to change. Go to Settings, Accessibility, VoiceOver, Verbocity, actions. Now, change the setting to do nothing. That should resolve the issue.
Actions available
Just curious, but does it not even help when it's an action novel you're reading?
Well, seems they fixed one big issue
Wow, to be honest, props to Apple, seems they fixed one issue, which was very anoying since Apple Books redesign in IOS 16.0.
If you used the Apple Books appin connection with a Focus 40 Braille display, and the page was flippimg forward, or backward the Braille display jumped immediately to the menue button. This disturbed the whole reading flow, when you've planned to read a large amount of a book or a magazine on a free day for example.
