iOS 11 which I think is what caused it. When I do a double - it turns into a — which doesn’t work to strike through
—see—
I’m sad. I like the strike through.

Ilovepixie I only worked it out recently. When you’re writing at the bottom there are: L-R a smiley face, a capital T and a paper clip. Open the T and strike through is one option in there.

drinkswineoutofamug · 09/10/2017 22:38

What ever I ficking do

drinkswineoutofamug · 09/10/2017 22:38

-not working for me-

ilovepixie · 09/10/2017 22:33
