Hi, all. I am finding the following bug since updating to IOS 16.5. I'm testing this on my iPhone 12 Pro with an Orbit Reader 20-Plus.
In Voice Dream Reader: While panning through a book, I eventually run out of text and have to swipe up with three fingers to read more with the panning buttons.
With Kindle: The panning buttons do not work at all, rendering Braille support useless!
Pages documents: I can scroll through a document just fine with no issues with the panning buttons.
I would love to find a fix for this. The latest Apple updates have really done a number on Braille support! If anyone can duplicate this, please inundate Apple with bug reports, feedback, call and offer to screen share. I don't care that these are third party apps. I can duplicate the issue on Kindle and Voice Dream when these apps used to work. And, I'm having similar issues with my Brailliant BI 40X. I'd love to be wrong and find an easy fix, but that remains to be seen.

This is a potentially nasty…
This is a potentially nasty one as it can freeze the panning right and left buttons. When this happens, turn VoiceOver off and on again and the panning buttons will start working again. To stop this happening in the Kindle and Books apps, you need to turn off automatic page turning when panning in the Braille area of VoiceOver settings.
