In short, flick right with 3 fingers to switch between command in input. Once in command, you use the braille keyboard commands you would normally use on braille displays. For example, where on a braille display you would press space+dot3+dot6 to double tap, you just press dots 3 and 6 in BSI command mode; i.e. just ignore the space bit. Here's a list of those commands: support.apple.com/en-us/118665
When using a braille display with VoiceOver on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, your braille display may support the following commands to help with navigation.
Yeah, it takes a bit to get your head around it and I don't use most of the commands often enough to remember them. But I've finally managed to commit some of the really useful ones to memory; rotor movement, activation, etc. I believe iOS 19 will let you customise the commands to your own taste, but you can't do that in 18 I don't think.
As far as I know, iOS doesn't have a read line command, only read from here or read from top. To read just a line, you have to move back and forward with the lines rotor, which is annoying.
Another example: you could press dots 2 3 5 6 to select all, then dots 1 2 3 6 to paste the clipboard over that selection. Or you can move to the previous rotor with dots 2 3 or the next rotor with dots 5 6, then move to the previous rotor item with dot 3 and the next rotor item with dot 6. The rotor stuff is quite useful when editing.
