And they had it solved! 3D Touch worked perfectly – you pushed the screen hard to get a cursor, moved it to the start of the selection, and pushed hard again to drag to the end. They killed it because "not all iPhones had the hardware to support it" or something.

3D touch was amazing I'm still upset they canned it.

You can still get a cursor by holding down space bar.

Space bar which is at... the bottom of the screen, so if you want to move the caret down... 3D Touch worked _anywhere_, also had no delay, and hard press a second time was much more convenient for selection.

that deserves a whole separate opera. why does moving the cursor to start/end almost always place it one character off? same when trying to use touch on text for it.

you can still make selections using the keyboard without 3d touch.

How? I know you can move the cursor by holding space and dragging but how do you start the selection?
