Ha, yep I feel like an absolute idiot doing that in public. My genuinely favourite hidden/unintuitive feature is the force-touch on the on-screen keyboard to see a little cursor you can scroll around the text field you are using. I hate that it's so unintuitive, but it's incredibly useful
- rickycook 7y agoand i hate that they removed it in the latest generation! i know you can do the hold down on space instead, and i know that you can then tap with a second finger, but there’s so much more you could do much quicker with the force touch keyboard!
- Angelwings93 7y agoYou can also do it by holding down the caret :)
- gjhr 7y agoOn many Android keyboards you can hold and drag on the space bar to do the same. You can also drag back on backspace to delete whole words/sentences. Similarly unintuitive though, I only know about it because I saw someone else mention it on the Internet.

- pmontra 7y agoI enable the arrow keys row on SwiftKey and move with them. Phones are so tall nowadays that a few extra pixels in the keyboard mean nothing.
- taejo 7y agoFor me personally it's a coin toss whether it moves the cursor or inserts a space.
- shawnz 7y agoGboard also now comes with an "arrow keys" panel that you can access by clicking the Google logo. See: https://images.techhive.com/images/article/2017/04/gboard-text-selection-100716945-large.jpg https://images.techhive.com/images/article/2017/04/gboard-te...
- mistermann 7y agoI would love to have this, but when I click the logo I just get a search box??
