The space bar, did you know?

[sonandhelpneeded]

So I have just discovered by holding down the space bar on my phone keyboard, I can move the cursor to wherever I want on my message....

This will save me hours of frustration and having to undo loads of text I actually want!

I thought I'd share, but maybe you all already knew abs didn't tell me?

AIBU to think this is genius?

I can't believe people are still using iPhones.

You can't believe it or you don't approve of it?

Jay Raynor is a food critic and Clare Raynor’s son.

better yet, Eve Pollard is Claudia Winkleman’s mum.

This thread is doing my head in

If only there was something else on the internet you could read instead.

Really?? I love my iPhone and iPad. Should we be using iTampax or something?

Doesn't work on my samsung, but I can just press where I want to be ... apparently you can hold anywhere on the keyboard for this feature on an iphone according to the internet

Thanks for sharing OP X

Brilliant....you have reduced my stress levels immeasurably - thank you for posting this. (Don't understand the haters, if it doesn't help you, just scroll on past...)

Oh my! it works

That's brilliant, thanks for the tip.

Doesn't work on my Samsung

If you have 3D Touch then you can do it anywhere on the keyboard.

Just testing this.

It works!

Oh that’s brilliant OP Thank you!

The text replacement thing is a feature for iPhone as well. (General->Keyboard->Text Replacement) I've got loads of shortcuts that can type out whole paragraphs if I want (eg telling my son to come down and help me bring the shopping in )

I was very confused by this. Was to work out what you mean but have now tried and that’s fantastic!

I am confused. Doesn't it just add spaces? Ah-hah! You have to press and hold. Awesome! So much better than the zoom thing. Thanks, OP.

Oooh this is great OP, thank you.

I am however more entertained by how pissed off everyone on this thread is getting!

@user1473878824, tell me! It's hilarious to get so uptight! !

Awesome! Thank you 😀

I DID NOT know that. Only replying to try out the space bar tip. Love it,

@GimmeGimmeHellYeah yes I'm sure the OP is revelling in the wonder of her discovery and laughing at us for being fools for believing that she herself discovered this.

Maybe not.

When people say they discovered something they don't usually mean they were the first person to find it, just that they found something out...

Why can't you believe people still use iPhones? Most people I know have one. I don't like them enough to change from Android though.

wow this is going to change my life too!!! tx

I can't believe people are still using iPhones

What are we supposed to be using?
