What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026
GoTap Braille is a hands-on kit that turns an iPad into a braille learning tool. Tactile overlays sit over the screen and work with the GoTap Braille App to teach and reinforce braille through more than 80 pages of activities. The kit comes with 32 overlays, 5 templates, tactile manipulatives, and a guidebook, so a child has things to feel and handle, not just a screen to tap. It is designed for 10.2 inch iPads, and 9.7 inch iPads need some modification. You supply the iPad, since it isn't included.

What setup looks like
- Out of the box
Install the GoTap Braille App on the iPad and look through the guidebook to see how the overlays and templates are used. - With a guide
Fit the overlays onto the iPad as the guidebook shows, and try a few activities to learn how the pieces work together. Plan on about 30 minutes for a first run-through. If you have a 9.7 inch iPad, expect to make some modifications first. - With professional help
A teacher of students with visual impairments (TVI) can choose which activities and overlays fit the child's current braille skills and build them into lessons. This is most useful at the start and when moving to new skills.
