Hello all,

We are very excited to announce this much -anticipated version 3.0 update for the BrailleSense 6 and BrailleSense 6 MINI. There is much to tell you about with this one, so please do read this message in its entirety before updating.

The first thing you’ll notice with this update is that the menu structure has changed dramatically. Please remember that the global launch keys remain the same, and can be found in section 16.2 of the Commands Summary. We’ve also added a favorite Apps area, where you can save applications you use often to make them easier to locate.

This update adds several advanced formatting functions to the Word Processor, including creation of tables, footnotes, and bullets and numbering. as well as improving stability, and allowing you to define default settings for the purpose of creating default document templates.

We have also added a new Braille Practice application, and Compressed Mode for braille documents in the Notepad. Our web radio and Podcast defaults have been updated, and these applications have improved interfaces.

In addition, we have updated all apps in the App Installer in the Android Apps menu, and have uploaded new versions of all of the Optional Add-on applications to update for various issues. You may simply redownload the apps you have already installed from either of these areas, and they will be automatically updated to the latest versions.

Finally, this update includes the long-awaited new web Browser. As this is a transition, and we cannot account for every type of website a user may encounter, we are including both browsers for this first release. In addition to stream-lining the interface, the new browser should allow you to fill out forms, play embedded media, and perform tasks like logging in to hotel and airport wi-fi that have been problematic with the older browser.
