Yeah I switched to iOS a couple years back after getting sick of some Google/Android “quirks” and like it for the most part.
Ofc I’ve come to find plenty of things I hate about it as well. Notably text editing is the most miserable experience I have day to day. Managing to select the correct bit of text, or moving the caret to a specific position in some text I want to select feels impossible sometimes.
- smaccona 5y agoYou may know this already, but holding your finger on the keyboard space bar turns the entire keyboard into a trackpad you can use to slide your finger around and position the caret where you want a lot more easily. Not very discoverable, I agree.
- mariojv 5y agoHow did you discover this? I’ve been an iPhone user since maybe the early 2010s and never knew about this. It makes me wonder if there’s some tutorial I should go through that has a bunch of tricks like this.
- ok_dad 5y agoYea the keyboard and text editing is really annoying, that’s one of the things I hate about this phone. Putting special symbols is a chore to say the least!
- behnamoh 5y agoIt used to be better on Android, but with Android 12, selecting text is even worse than iOS.
