Does anyone know how to enable Spotlight search on iOS with a refreshable braille display?
I know you swipe down with 3 fingers to enable spotlight on the home screen when you are not using a refreshable braille disply.
Thanks.

Hi Maria,

To swipe down using a braille display, do a number-sign chord, (dots 3-4-5-6 , from your home-screen, and the spotlight utility will come up. A th-sign chord (dots 1-4-5-6 will swipe up.
hth,
Rachel.

Thank you
