There’s an Apple iPhone trick that people started talking about recently, and it’s really useful for editing blocks of text after you begin typing.
Typically, if you’re writing a long text message, entering a URL in a browser or typing out text in an email, you’d have to double tap an area of text and hold down to move your cursor to an area of text that you might want to edit. You’re probably familiar with this tool, which brings up a tiny magnifying glass on the screen.
However, a Twitter user, who goes by the handle @krissys_kitchen, tweeted out a ‘trick’ on the iPhones which left several users baffled.
“If you click and hold the spacebar, you can move the cursor instead of trying to drag the cursor itself with your fat thumb lol,” she wrote. “How come you guys never told me this iPhone trick? I feel duped.”
