Score one for Deafblind workarounds. So one of the biggest problems for a Deafblind person who *requires* braille is that when I get a new device it doesn't have a pairing relationship with any of my braille displays. Which makes the device unusable. However the watch can be mirrored from the phone which does. Mirroring simply means that the screen of the watch is on the phone and you can interact on the phone and any gestures you do on the phone, such as opening apps, selecting items etc will be passed through to the watch. So I first got out 2 braille displays. One was paired to the phone, the other one was in pairing mode. I then mirrored the watch to my phone which was paired to display number one and now my watch has braille via the phone. So on the phone I go into the watch's settings, into accessibility and etc. There is where I find the braille settings and I ask the watch to search for braille display number 2. Once it finds it in the list of Bluetooth devices you now have a direct relationship with the watch and the braille display and no longer need the phone as a bridge. Then now that the watch has a direct relationship with one display I can set up any and all other displays with it as well. So I can use my chameleon with the watch when I'm out, and when I'm home it pairs to the mantis! I didn't need any help from a sighted/hearing person to do it! Go, team! Bear in mind i had it copy all of the old settings and things from the old watch so all of my voiceover settings and things were set up automatically. This would have been trickier if it had been my first watch or if there wasn't a backup from which to work! But all's well that ends well.
