This may be posted already, but I love that wherever I put my finger in a wall of text, the cursor goes there. I don’t have to press and hold, the cursor doesn’t jump to the start or end of the word, the word isn’t selected... the cursor just goes where I pressed. The middle of the word, the letter after the first, the letter before the last. Awesome. I hate typing on my iPhone or iPad and have to edit, the stupid battle trying to get the cursor to go where I want it is soooooo troublesome. But on my asus tablet, my pixel, easy peasy.
- harperlee 7y agoAgree. But. Pressing anywhere on the iphone keyboard to drag and aim the cursor is awesome. So I can’t really decide which of the two is better in this dimension, now that “aiming” comes instinctively.
- d3sandoval 7y agoYou can scroll your thumb along the spacebar to "aim" the cursor on android. I do like the knobs of android better than the zoom-and-select that iPhone does.
- harperlee 7y agoI did not refer to that magnifying lens but to this: https://www.news18.com/news/buzz/a-hidden-feature-on-iphone-to-move-the-cursor-is-blowing-everyones-mind-1944215.html https://www.news18.com/news/buzz/a-hidden-feature-on-iphone-... It seems that 3d-touch (hard press) can be emulated qith the spacebar.
