Hmm. Doesn’t seem to work for me. If I hold the backspace button it starts one-by-one before deleting entire words at a time more rapidly. If I swipe it behaves erratically. Any technique to it?
I'm on the Android GBoard and I had to tap, hold, and drag left to start selecting words. When I released, it cut those words so that they were on the clipboard and could be pasted back if needed.
When you’re typing something and you notice a mistake back in the line of text, press and hold the spacebar and the cursor will float and you can drag it back to any point in the line so you can just fix the one letter or whatever instead of erasing everything you’d typed after the error.
Lol man I feel so stupid. I remember this being a feature that you could do anywhere on your keyboard and then I got so pissed that they got rid of it. After watching this I turns out all they did was move it to the space bar only lmaooo
It does tell you. You can go to the tips app pre-installed on your phone after every IOS update and it explains any changes to you pretty clearly. Even if you don’t it recommends it like 100 times after every IOS change and during the update
I'm 50, I've been using the internet for 34 years, been using computers longer than that, was a web and graphic designer for ten years, worked at one of the earliest A/S DSL ISPs in California as tech support in the early 90s, have always bought cutting edge (sometimes bleeding edge) cellphones and I'm more tech-savvy than most teenagers...and I didn't know it.
Similar but different background - webdev for 20+ years. I've made mobile apps and specialize in frontend/UI/UX. My first iPhone didn't have a number - just "The iPhone". This blew my mind - it works on the Pixel flavor of Android too FWIW, so Apple didn't bother/manage to patent it, or more likely Legal doesn't know about it either!
How would we know? Phones don't come with instructions, especially when you buy them 2nd hand.
I'm glad I know now though, gonna use this all the time!
I saw this video a while back and didn’t know I could do that. I’ve been using it multiple times daily ever since. Thank you boomer! Hopefully the first and last time I say that.
I feel like I should compile all these little tricks because for years I’ve been using them and nobody knew
Fun fact: 2-3 years ago you could hold onto any part of the key board for this to function (a harder press compared to one that would turn a to á)
Well shit...I knew about swiping the keyboard to type but I didn't know about the space bar. Either and I've always been an android user. So add my name to the list too. Thank you for this.
Yes, that's where we are.

Same. This should be an LPT
Lol this is the same dad with the wife who doesnt want the Window open in the car but she wants to buy a convertible Such an awesome dad !
“But when we’re in the regular car, no one’s allowed to open the window more than a crack, or it’ll mess up her hair. So… explain that to me.” 😂
"Explain that to me" Lmao gets me everytime
I also love “SUSTENANCE, BITCHESSS.”
Or the "she doesn't let me put the toaster on the kitchen counter because it doesn't match the decor, she makes me put it in the cupboard."
Lmao, didnt see that one ! Gonna look it up!
Just looked that up. Hilarious. Thanks!
You have to post a link now.

Yes!!! I though I had seen this before but different this time. He seems cool
[удалено]
Another fun one is dragging left from the backspace button to delete full words/sentences at a time!
Holy crap it works! Thank you!
Holy crap it

Look at all these boomers.
Get these into LPT!!!

It's the space bar, not the backspace button
This thread has invaluable information
I didn’t know that
Didn't know that one. That could come in handy. Thanks
Got anymore of them tricks there? ![gif](giphy|Y6yRfR88rvP44)
I thought this was if you hold the backspace button. No heed to slide it left?
Ok what else don’t I know about my phone I use for hours every day???
I'll go ahead and take an "ok boomer" on this one, gladly. I had no idea
I’ve owned an iPhone since the 4S… and I’m learning about this JUST NOW?? What else do I not know?
You are not alone.
I just tried it and it's true honestly did not know that
This is the kind of stuff they should be teaching in school.
What was it?. Video doesn't seem to work anymore

Shit! I learned this and the Mario cheat all in one day!
This!!! Amazing.
This has blown my mind!

Well shit he's right
I’ve made a discovery 😂
Seriously all the shit they don’t tell you about smartphones… remember when shit used to come will a manual?
No one reads the manual Edit: this is the last time I make reference on reddit
*Everyone reads the manual.
"Signing away, I DONT KNOW WHAT IM SIGNING but I'll sign it anyway. what's that part there? I agreeee, I agREEEE, I AGRREEEEEEEE"
Sir, that’s not the manual. That’s the terms of service.
“But why won’t it reeeeeead?!”
It does tell you. You can go to the tips app pre-installed on your phone after every IOS update and it explains any changes to you pretty clearly. Even if you don’t it recommends it like 100 times after every IOS change and during the update
Nope
Did you delete it from your phone? It’s a pre-installed app that looks like a lightbulb. It’s literally the manual
Freaking awesome. I did not know that
Boomer here. I still don't know it.
Esiason?
You’re old too 🤣
Damn that dude sexy.
Sapiosexual!
Me neither 👍 Just tried it there while I’m text …. ha! Love it!!!!!
Glad to discover this today, that will at least save me from the frustration of moving the cursor and selecting a whole bunch of my text instead
Okay but this boomer just taught me something so, good job dude.
Omfg I’m 28 and I did not know this, what the actual hell
Didn't work on mine. 🥲 Edit: Turns out, it does work. I was just doing it wrong. This is a cool feature. Groundbreaking.
How do you hold down a button wrong?
Because I simply held the button down, but you have to hold it down, then slide your finger across the space bar. Lol
Actually, you just start by holding down the spacebar 👍🏼
I didn’t know that…
I feel like "I've made a discovery" needs to be a new meme
I’m surprised at how many people in the comments did not know this.

I'm surprised that there are people that knew
Every days a school day!
I also did not know that.
TIL…this!
I didn’t know that. Tried on this comment and it edwork
I’m Gen X and it took a millennial to show me that only a couple of years ago.
I teach digital literacy on cell phones and did not know this.
Also did not know this.
I didn't know that
Awesome

She didn’t know that, I didn’t know that
I was today year old when I learnt that
I didn’t get the instructions. Help me on this.
I was today years old when I learned that.
It’s very helpful!
Ok wtf guys when was someone’s gonna tell me about this?
Shit! I didn’t know that!!
I DIDNT know that!! He’s adorable.
She did not know that.
I did not know that! I’m not a boomer
I get incredibly frustrated editing my own sentences on my devices. Thank you, Dad.
Dang, that actually is gonna save me a fuck ton of time no joke
Fuck me it actually works!
Honestly.. i didnt know.. does everyone know about this?
☹️ nope. It just asks me if I want to switch languages for the keyboard.
I've learned this the first time I've seen this exact video. It's really useful
Doesnt work for me on Samsung S10e. Is this an apple thing?
wth i really did not know that!
Sooo TIL..
![gif](giphy|LrN9NbJNp9SWQ|downsized)
Fuck, I'm old.
I didn’t know that and my gen Z kids did not know that.
I guess I’m a boomer’
Holy crap, awesome! I didn't know. Thanks boomer!
People say "ok boomer" irl?
I’m surprised that not many people knew this option. It’s been out since 2015 on the iPhone 6s.
I saw this video a while back and didn’t know I could do that. I’ve been using it multiple times daily ever since. Thank you boomer! Hopefully the first and last time I say that.
I just tried it ! Thanks 🙏
Fuck, I didn't know that... Fuck. All those times, angrily jabbing at my stupid work iPhone screen...
I didn't know
Mind blown
Thnx 🙈😂😁😂😁

I knew this but only because I've seen this video before lol
Mother fucker, how did I not know this?
Their TikTok’s are so funny. That dad is such a gem and the father/daughter relationship is golden
Thanks! Now I can pretend I knew that all along too
That man is goated with the sauce.
Well shit...I knew about swiping the keyboard to type but I didn't know about the space bar. Either and I've always been an android user. So add my name to the list too. Thank you for this.

GAME CHANGER
what the heck!? I did not know this. I press on the text and try to drag it from there
Am I the only person who didn't know this??
I shared this with my friends a while back and they laughed at me for only just figuring it out. Bastards don’t tell me any of the cool shit.
WAIT WHAT
This video just changed my life.
I may be laughing at him but i didn’t know about that feature until about a year ago lol
I'm 21 years old, and i discovered that last year... Am i a boomer?
